Hello Crew,
I just purchased a 2014 Sea Ray Sundancer and will have it next week (can't wait ).
My current boat is a Chaparral 290 Signature with Garmin Chartplotter and Auto Pilot and I am enjoying all the features like Auto Guidance and automatic Auto Pilot engaging from my Garmin setup.
Unfortunately (or not) the Sea Ray have Axius Premiere which includes the Merc Auto Pilot. I wanted to take my Garmin with me but I read that I will lose the Autoguidance feature on the way. Since the recent partnership between Navico and Merc I was wondering if going with the new Simrad Go12 xse could be the solution ? I mean they have their own autoguidance named easy Route or Automatic Route (which seems not available in North America but we can make it works by using Navionics App). Any idea if this is compatible with Merc Auto Pilot ?
May I ask what MFD those amongst you have with Axius Premiere (and the others too) It is not too late to deal the Simrad with the new boat.
Thanks
P.S : Sorry for the crappy English but this is not my first language
