Any status update (pictures) on the dash rebuilt...? Love the initiative by the way...!Currently, I am a developer/ analyst for Centurylink. I was a customer car audio installer back in the 90s, that’s where I learned all my customer interior work. I built the dash out of steel, fiberglass, plywood, and of course bondo. I even used an old tshirt.
Hi!!!Sorry, I had to share with someone, I think it turned out awesome!
I was looking to upgrade to a new boat, until i saw the prices on the new boats! So, I decided to keep my old 2005 and do some electronics upgrades to the dash. I was jealous of you guys with newer boats that have that touch screen in the dash, so that had to go in! I pulled out the old dash on both sides and rebuilt them both. I upgraded the whole boat to NMEA 2000 network and control.
On the drivers side I installed a 12 inch Raymarine Axiom plus chart plotter MFD, this also doubles as my gauges, digital switcher control, and stereo control. I replaced all the rocker switches with backlit momentary stainless push buttons, including the no wake mode buttons. The buttons are connected to a Yacht Devices N2K digital switcher and flash when the check engine light flashed. I installed a JL Audio head unit and 3 N2K remotes to go with it (one on the passenger side, one in the bow, and one on the rear deck). Perfect pass on the right, with dual power flags (port and starboard) buttons and a GPRS radio below the keys.
On the passenger side, I added one of the stereo remotes on the left, with dual power flags (port and starboard) buttons, a (4) cell phone holder/charger, and enlarged the glove boxes.
Here is the hardware:
Still need to get it out on the water and test it this weekend.
- Raymarine Axiom plus 12inch MFD
- Albatross Alba-Combi analog to N2K dual engine monitor
- 2 Yacht devices N2K digital switching (controls all the old rocker type switches)
- MM100sBE, MM40's
- 2 Navico N2K fuel flow sensors
- 2 5v oil pressure sending units
- 2 water temp sensors
Thanks for looking.
CYBUCH I've got mine installed but am having trouble mapping these to work in the Albicombi. Can you help with config instructions buddy?Yes and no. I did cut the wires from the old techs and throw them out. I didn’t install an oil pressure sender tee’d in with the original low oil pressure switch. I also installed inline water temp sensors before the thermostat. For the check engine, over temp, and low oil pressure warning lights, I wired those into the converter and mapped them to the appropriate NMEA code.
