I have used the Navman 3100 instrument set for about a year and have nothing but good things to say. I really like the way they mount with one large "nut" on the back and a built in gasket. The navbus works well between instruments and to the repeater. They also support NMEA outputs. Be warned that the NMEA outputs are all independent. Data from the Navbus is not output via NMEA, just the data from the instrument you are reading from.
I have the electronic display wind instrument, not the analog. For my cruising sailing style it works just great. They also make a neat little color fish finder that I have just bought and am installing in place of the depth sounder. It is just small enough to fit in my panel and has an great display. I am going to put the depth display down as a repeater in the nav station. I also plan to buy a second wind display to put at the nav station. It will provide a back up and be easier to read that the repeater that is strictly a numerical read out.
