My exposure to TackTick is years ago. The only fault we found is the instruments would wig out in thunderstorms. Anyone have that issue with current models?

Bought them before Raymarine rebranded the product. Well engineered, well made, very reliable so far (3 years), user friendly. The displays come w two sets of mounting brackets, each. I mounted a set in the cockpit and a set in the cabin. I like that I can unclick them from the cockpit and click them into their brackets in the cabin, keeping an eye on depth, water temp, battery voltage, and wind speed and direction. I can also keep a display inside for the offwatch, or mount one on the mast for the crew when racing. You can also backmount the displays w machine screws like other systems, if you prefer. (Just remembered, I still have a few cables to remove from the Signet network.) I expect Raymarine will eventually learn from TackTick, and make the whole Raymarine line, wireless and click mountable.

I have had bad experience with Raymarine on autopilots. I am hopeful that Raymarine didn't screw around with the Tack Tick software before I bought them. I heard they didn't but I can only hope.

Both were junk. The first product was 4000+ autopilot. On matter they or I did it would not steer a straight course. The unit was rated for a 16000 lbs boat. It was installed on a Pearson 28, well below the displacement limit. Product #2 is a st40 wind instrument. It worked for 1 week after the installation. I sent it back to Raymarine service and they repaired it. The repaired unit worked for 2 weeks. They currently have the unit and can not duplicate the problem. The problem is it displays all dashes on the instrument. I said how about a new one. They said $130. I said free. They said no.

However, I did go the B&G route last year with 3 Triton displays and a Zeus Touch 7 on Firewater last year. I have found it very easy to use, very flexible and would recommend it to anyone looking at instruments. No connection to either company, just a satisfied user.
