    Our plug and play days are over with all these networks we have to integrate into! Nice install, Rich. If you want to check your Vhf and AIS out with another boat we can coordinate and see how it all plays.
    Nice editing as usual, Jenny 👍

    Interesting that you choose a Garmin VHF when you already had Raymarine or Vesper all around. Looking forward to the rest of the Autopilot install. Noticed your wind meter gauge was changed from the analog one you posted in 2019.

      Garmin acquired Vesper Marine earlier this year so it’s still in the family of electronics we have aboard. We never really considered a Raymarine VHF. It was between Icom and Garmin. We swapped out the wind gauge with the Raymarine i70s multifunction gauge in this video. One of the gauges had to go to make room for the autopilot gauge and we can use the i70s for everything else.

      @@svrambleonUnderstood, makes sense - I ended up with an Icom VHF with Raymarine AIS installed 10 years ago. Used a Vesper splitter as well since it was rated very well.

    Good looking install! Would you recommend this unit for a 40ft power boat?

    Why didn’t you bring the cable up through the pedestal for the cockpit microphone. Now you have to climb over the pigtail wire if you store the microphone on the pedestal. 😊

      There’s no room in the pedestal with the chain and cable steering, shift and throttle cables, and light for the compass. We have to climb onto the seat to get around the helm anyway so we’ll never have to climb over the pigtail.
