    SR230 Chartplotter dash upgrade

    Hello all, looking into adding a gps/Chartplotter this offseason. Just curious if anyone has experience with Garmin EchoMap chirp 53 or similar on these boats. Any pictures of mounting places would be helpful. Where did you put the transducer on the transom ? Also has anyone re-done the dash...

    Amperage Interrupting Capacity (AIC) for fuses

    I'm going to be adding a chartplotter/fishfinder to my sx210. I was planning on installing a new circuit back to the battery for the fishfinder and was going to copy the materials/routing for the stock radio which I believe is 16 gauge wire with a 15-amp blade style ATC fuse (see photo).

    Humminbird Helix 5 G2 GPS/DI Install

Still have to fasten the transducer cable to the transom and it’s all done! Turned out great! The transducer...

    Garmin 741xs

    Does anyone a Garmin device? I really like the layout of the 741xs. I know it is over sized but that doesn't bother me at all. If you have this or any other Garmin that has the card slots, have you tried the G2 vision card? Is it worth the money to upgrade? I like the auto guidance feature but...
