Thanks for redirecting, Scott.

Tell us more about why you picked the electronics you did, what the decisionmaking process was, and how you integrated it.

What TV do you have, and sound system to take advantage of the XM, etc...

Is the Tracvision completely hassle free?
Thanks!
Randy

350's rated at 250 HP each with Bravo 3 drives.It had every available option
except a generator and the navigation electronics, which is fine for me
because Maxum uses Raymarine equipment and I prefer Garmin. So i had the
generator installed and added a Tracvision 4 in motion satellite tracking
system and a Garmin 3006C color chartplotter with the GDL-30 XM satellite
weather receiver.This thing is awesome. I can see live weather radar on my
chartplotter in real time and get up to the minute weather forecasts. I love
my boat and how I equipped it. I cruise on the Potomac River and Chesapeake
Bay. How about everyone else? Where do you boat and what kind of boat do you
have? I am new to this group but hope I will fit in. Scott.

This is a boat newsgroup not politics, so can we keep the discussion to
boats only please?



Lets go. You start.
