Hi - Apologies in advance if this has been asked and answered. I am looking for advice on upgrading the original Raymarine Pathfinder RL70C radar/chartplotter (and optionally the SmartCraft unit) on my 2003 340 Sundancer.
Thank you in advance.
Joe.
- Most important for me is an easy to use/view chartplotter/depth gauge that can sync with Navionics or some other iPhone/iPad app.
- I don't need radar in the immediate future, but if the replacement worked with the existing radar dome, it would be a plus. If not, I would think about upgrading the dome in a few years.
- Also, the SmartCraft unit works fine but is a bit hard to view. I am aware of the new digital VesselView units, but is there a chartplotter that can also incorporate the data from the (Merc 8.1 gas) engines to eliminate the need for the SmartCraft?
- I am less interested in fishfinder functions.
Thank you in advance.
Joe.
