Yes, CHIRP units will work with in hull (shoot thru) transducers. I think what may be referring to with your hull is that it is cored (meaning there is some type of composite material sandwiched between two fiberglass layers). If that is the case and you go with an in hull you have to cut out the top level of the fiberglass and the coring material so that the transducer sits on the bottom layer of the fiberglass. Hopefully you don't have any air pockets/gaps.
