Hi,
I had very unfortunate situation where boat took on water over night in slip and engines were partially submerged and water protruded into cabin. Long story short, insurance is totaling the boat.
My question is can I remove my 2 year old/new GPS head unit I installed? I have the old...
Just purchased a ‘02 300 Sundancer and was bothered by the old GPS. Replaced that with a newer Garmin and found a killer deal in a new steering wheel. Installed super easily.
Just took possession of a 2013 DA330 and noticed that my chart plotter frequently lost the GPS signal. But I could see the depth on the display. I did some searching and found a post saying that the Raymarine GPS receiver on the radar arch uses batteries. I don't know what model the receiver...
My raymarine a98 touchscreen has gone out. Updated unit software and even updated navionics chip but still will just freeze up and not get passed the “ok” screen.
I have raymarine autopilot and radar so I figured it’s best to just stick with raymarine.
any suggestions on what to...
Raymarine CAM210 New, installed but never used. I purchased this CAM210 had it professionally painted and installed, however it is incompatible with the G-Series system on the vessel. I had to remove it and install an older composite camera. It is brand new with all the connections, painted...
I paid $6 for the "GPS Waypoint Navigator" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.discipleskies.android.gpswaypointsnavigator&hl=en_US which is an app for my Samsung cellphone. Besides designating waypoints with a touch of the screen, it allows downloading of NOAA marine charts at no...
Hello all,
I've seen this topic thrown around a bit but have never heard any definitive answer. I typically cruise my 2002 260 DA around 3500-3700 RPM. In calm conditions and little to no current, the built in speedo reads about 28-30mph while the GPS unit reads 20-24mph. To me the speed of ~28...
Well, its late January in North East Wisconsin. Over the next 24 hours, the forecast is calling for a foot of snow followed by -21F without the wind chill factor the next day.
Today, I finally got around to editing this vidoe that shows me installing a flush mount Garmin GPS and VHF radio in...
Hi Guys, the clean out continues...
We have a radar system that's been in the shop for about a year. It came off the boat working just fine.
We're looking for about $800 on this one, plush shipping if needed.
Make a good offer and we'll see what we can do.
All the best,
Chris

I developed the attached emergency procedures with the idea that family / friends would know what to do if we had an emergency. I made it with an assumption that I was either overboard, medically incapacitated, injured, etc and they would have to know how to work the radio and relay our...
Hello All
We recently bought our first boat and being handy, I’m hoping to save a little money by installing a Chartplotter/GPS unit myself. The mounting is a no brainer, but I don’t have a clue where to connect the electrical. I’m assuming there are terminal blocks somewhere for all the cockpit...

Hey all,
Boat show season is coming up and I am planning to replace the Raymarine C80 unit that came with the boat when I bought it. I have my eyes on a Garmin 7610xsv and will also add the radar to replace the current one.
I wanted to know if anyone had setup that unit on a 2007 Sundancer 310...
I have seen some really great things done with tying GPSs to the engines. I heard that the NMEA 2000 connection will only connect 2007 and new boats. I have a 99 340 DA - is there an after market product that someone makes that will allow me to connect the engines to the GPS?
I know I have 2...
Greetings, all,
After thoroughly searching the forums regarding transducers, I ended perhaps more confused than before I started searching :-) Lots of info on this topic!
I have a through-hull transducer on my 2007 DA 310, which is only providing depth information and, I believe water...
I'm looking into taking my boat to FL this coming winter ( gulf side - Naples ). Any advise as far as preparation? It would be in dry stack. I don't have a closed cooling system and looking for advise from others who have their boat in salt water environment. Should I invest in closed cooling...
So my Sea Ray 300 Weekender came with a big old Garmin 2010C without a software chip. Yes great device if all you need to know is your on the east coast. I plan on using it as a spare anchor if the need arises. My other boat has a Lowrance GPS/Sonar unit with the Navionics Coastal card in it...
