Compass Rose 0 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Hi I am researching for a new instrument/charting package for my yacht, the existing Furuno/ Nexus gear is now about 14 years old and while working does not have the capacity of the current generation. Looking for suggestions of what I should be looking for and also recommendations on manufacturer. Thanks in advance David Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Island Time 1,286 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 B&G. Best sailing software. Whats the boat? Instruments only, or Mfd, autopilot, radar, Ais,weather forecasting etc etc. I'm a marine electronics supplier/install/support. I do Navico (B&G, Simrad, Lowrance) and raymarine systems. I'd be happy to provide any details you like, references available. I should be able to match or better anyone's prices. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

war machine 0 Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 I can vouch for B&G. After a long, and frustrating story trying to cut and paste Advansea into Navman gear (like is says on the web site) we have now started to invest in B&G with a Vulcan 7 GPS plotter. It does just about everything except pour the rum. http://www.neptunes-gear.com/index.php/vulcan7-fs-aus-nz-nav-card.html Can vouch for Matt as he installed and helped us sort out the hotch potch of other gear we have... As the Advansea expires it will be replaced by B&G! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
