While my Lowrance
depth gauge is still working, the speed gauge isn't. I do not have a
wind gauge but am interested in adding one. I live on a 2000
Hunter 290. I plan to start coastal cruising in
Florida in the fall and then complete the Great Loop next year. The
boat is being hauled on May 6 so I need to
purchase the
parts before then to reduce the length of time the
boat will be in the yard. I will be having someone else do the
work. I have a
Garmin GPSMap 741xs.
Which system would you recommend for the instrument upgrade?
Garmin or Tacktick by
Raymarine?
Price is a consideration. Would you consider refurbished or only new and why? And do you have recommended suppliers? I'm using
Google as my personal shopper.
Thanks from a neophyte cruiser and boat owner.
