In smooth seas with a balanced rig you are probably OK. You might want to call Ray and ask them what t is really engineered for.

Before I take on the task of disconnecting, shipping and paying for servicing, I'm also considering replacing it with a newer energy-saving and efficient modern option. I see Raymarine sells a SPX-5 p70 system for around $1,500. What do you use on your boats? Any thing that I should be aware of? All the best, Edd Edd M.
