I upgraded the software. Also check the batteries are holding amps OK not just voltage.

Removing the system seems simple but the electronics on this vessel are so integrated that removal is very complex. A close friend (Marine electrician) is working with Beneteau on a plan to remove the system from the boat.

As far as the A/C I suggest you look into Flagship Marine systems. If you take a close look at their website you will see specs and materials at a far higher level than the "usual suspects" and non-proprietary electrics/electronics.

Wish you luck.

Hi! Can you please contact me with your friend to know how he solve the propeller issues? I have the same boat an the Dock & go system is not working and neither the morse sometimos. Thanks!!

Hi, not sure if you still have your boat, but am curious where you set up your scuba gear and compressor. I'd love to add that to our 50.
