Jim,
I would seriously look into the TackTick line from Raymarine. I’ve had
no problems with it at all, only needs one transducer and is almost completely
wireless. The instruments are movable, so you can set up mounts inside and/or
outside.
I have the depth, speed and wind package, though haven’t set up the
wind instrument yet (but the display does give perfect readings of wind
direction and wind speed inside the box.)
All the best,
Edd

Hey Gang,
I'm shopping for a new depth sounder and a new knot meter for the old C&C 38
I'm buying. I'm not impressed with my choices, especially if I try to find one
that fits in the old instruments panel above the companionway.
I could go the route of Moor Instruments with their old round instrument style,
but worried about the quality. I could pay more and get the Raymarine products
though they're rectangular and pricey and seem to have all the same glitches
and short lifespans that come with these electronics, particularly depth
sounders.
So I'm wondering if any of you swear by the reliability and/or service of one
brand or another, or if you've had good or bad experiences with Raymarine, Moor
or other brands like Fiara, Hawkeye or Hummingbird.
Thanks,
Jim Lynch
