Re: Good Laptop for Onboard?

240GB SSD is just 35$ and huge performance+safety bump up. On planet Earth if 35$ is a symbol of "something" posh, probably time to see your doctor.

Re: Good Laptop for Onboard?

Get one with AMD Ryzen 7 4700U processor, e.g. Acer Swift 3 (SF314-42-R9YN) or Lenovo ThinkPad E14/E15. Both at around 650$.

Re: Rugged phone as backup plotter?

Could be so, but at the end of a day behemoth battery drainage will be on constant ON display and brightness level.

Re: Rugged phone as backup plotter?

This is a total BS. I have AGM A9 with 5400 mAh battery and charge it every 3 days with moderate everyday use. Constant GPS connection drains battery and it has nothing to do with phone price.

Re: NKE vs B&G Zeus

Just in case... our NKE windmill was blown away in 50-55 knots of wind, so I would suggest to keep a spare one board.

This a crazy rip-off. The same part for a car is just around 30 euro. I would consider DIY polyurethane restoration. Not a cosmic science... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_0BYvTkZ0o
