Hi Dave, I actually had the opportunity to play with both versions. In addition to higher resolution, the version 2 has a much faster processor and supports the pinch to zoom functionality. There are also a few nuances in the interface where it is more menu / swiping driven and less button int

Hi Steven, I looked around as well. As far as I can tell the SailSteer and Sail Time functions are unique to the B&G mode., I just looked-over the Simrad NSS7 Instruction manual (Here: http://www.simrad-yachting.com/Root/User%20Guides/NSS_OM_EN_988-10102-002_w.pdf ) And there's no wind r

Steve — Navico acquired all of those brands (B&G, Simrad and Lowrance) a few years back, so they share much of the same hardware. Lowrance is the low-cost brand of the range; much of their gear plays well with the other brands. Simrad is the “cruiser” stuff, B&G the “racer” stuff, and Navico d

They are not necessarily set at any particular angle.. That's the genius of it. It analyzes how you are pointing / running relative to apparent wind speed, current, tides, direction, wind shifts, and boat speed then does the trigonometry for the optimal tack point to max-out your vmg to your way
