Default Re: installing electronics.....

The $250 sounds reasonable if you don't want to do it yourself...It just seems like it could go to a better place, but its not my money.

I have so many other places on the boat that the $250 could go...Plus I ran a nema network through my engine and added 2 Icommand gauges and installed the basic lowrance setup, which is easier than it sounds.

Next time I have her out of the water Ill add the transducer, but four now its a GPS/CHartplotter.

Its even easier if there is other electronics there as you can just use the same access and transducer placement.

Its just time vs paying somebody else, but the skill set isn't very tough...IMO.

It does allow you the time to know your boat and see where things run for trouble shooting later....I learned a lot, just taking a cover off and looking around without touching anything or messing things up...Just know whats where.
