    Completed as far as electronics go. I have been telling myself for sometime ( like last year as well ) i needed to order a basic Garmin 150 Echo Fishfinder/depth sounder for "Bainbridge". So after the San Juan trip i did it. Yes i know i don't fish , but at least i can see what's happening down there as well as the depth readings. I already have the VHF and a 12 year old GPS. I installed a little more chrome things this past weekend as i felt it needed some jazzing up. Chuck

        441s Garmin

        Chuck - I know you like lots of gadgets , I have a Garmin441s that has everything all in one - Just push a button and it tells you where the closet Fuel is or Marina . Pretty amazing what they put in these little boxes. It also has a trip tracker so you can track your route and then follow the line back . Hardest part is figuring out how to use all the functions . :computers1:

          Yeah I just dropped $2K on a Garmin 740s. Simply amazing what it will do. 7" touch screen, waterproof, loaded with 3d bottom view, google maps, active sonar; should be great when I start diving from the boat this year. I really bought it for the touch screen, because it is intuitive, as I want everything on the boat to be as easy to use as possible.
