[CA] [CA11] eS or Axiom MFD + S3 course computer

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum bluwing,

Please excuse the delay in this response. As the eS-Series MFDs will are nearing the end of their run, I typically direct new customers to the Axiom line of MFDs. These MFDs may be adapted for use with the S1/S2/S3/S1G/S2G/S3G line of retired autopilot course computers. The only limitation would be that the autopilot controls feature supported by LightHouse 3 software may not be exercised with the autopilot. Instead, the autopilot's control head would need to be used to control mode (Standby, Auto, Track), to dodge, and to configure the autopilot's settings. Please click here to view a FAQ addressing when a MFD having a HybridTouch interface is preferable to a MFD having only a touchscreen-only interface. The upper and lower station MFDs will be interfaced to one another via a closed Raymarine Ethernet network and will supports sharing of all system resources and data.

With respect to sonar, is the vessel engaged in fishing as a priority? What is the approximate depth of the deepest water which you intend to fish? Are you interested 3D sonar imaging, SideVision sonar imaging, or DownVision sonar imaging?
