Need advice on upgrading electronics

[Mayor30]

Currently I have an integraded system with ST6001 auto helm, RL80C, C80, and the DSM 250 on a 25ft CC boat. I believe the last upgrade was in 2006. Can this equipment be integraded with newer equipment or do i need to replace all to upgrade the sonar. The local technician is telling me that everything is too old. I am looking at the AXIOM 9. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Mayor30,

The currently installed autopilot may be adapted for integration with the Axiom MFD. Limited data communications between the Axiom MFD and other components which you have listed would also be possible. Please click here to view a FAQ addressing this subject.
