I want to upgrade the electronics for my GB32 - to include radar, chartplotter, sonar, and want it to connect to my iPad (Macbook Pro) via Wi-Fi.
I have a Standard Horizon GX2150W which has a 4800 or 38400 NMEA baud rate selection, for plotters with 1 NMEA port (for AISÂ target display).
I would like to be able to mount the chartplotter on the flying bridge or in the lower station (only want to purchase one display). I like the idea of the Quantum Wi-Fi so as to reduce wiring.
I am removing the forward seacock for the toilet and am considering mounting a transducer in its place (am hoping for some forward looking sonar).
I currently have two older fish finders but the transducers are on the transom - 32 feet away from hitting something... so having some forward information would be nice.
The boat will be used on the Great Loop... any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Lance
