Who here has more electronics installed on their boat than me...

Knotmeter, Depthsounder, Radar, VHF, 9 inch TV....ummmm....sodering iron. Can I
count my stuff that I travel with, cuz then I could include my handheld GPS,
nightvision and walkman.
Anyone got a computer aboard. Pretty common, but I don't have one. Anyone have
a chartplotter? Not me. Anyone have a fully functional guage pack? Not me. Part
of mine died and I don't care to fix it.
Somehow Spirt thinks I represent some techie boater's wet dream. He might want
to have a look on the average new boat and see what people carry.

....half a dozen cameras, two wind meters, bagful of cheap toy
walkie-talkies, pocket-size 5KW PA system complete with rock band, etc,
etc...

guage pack? Not me. I have a broken guage pack and I don't know
how to fix it!

I have none of these things. No even a depth finder.

Tha's probably why I run aground constantly!

Seriously, none of that stuff is impressive. If you want to
impress someone, you'll need Ockam instruments.

Amateur!

I have a full set of Raytheon instruments.

http://www.cncphotoalbum.com/archive/cnchistory/c2c.htm

Wind, tridata, depth, knotmeter, compass (yes, the fluxgate compass
sensor), countdown timer, and more. It even tells me the water
temperature in fahrenheit and celsius. The compass reads in true or
magnetic. The wind instruments read in true or apparent.

I also have GPS, and a computer with a built in DVD player. Also full
stereo sound, and a CD player. The atomic clock stopped, so I can't
count it until it's fixed.





Pathetic Earthlings! No one can save you now!

My friend had an atomic clock on his boat. He dropped it and the case cracked.
It leaked and now he can't re-board his boat for 500'000 years.

I plan on getting the atomic clock fixed, getting some atomic fuel,
and an atomic detonator, and using it on enemies of the United States.


Paris, perhaps?
