None of that matters. They want to push a bigger and more expensive radar on bigger boats :)
Indeed. He Can’t find it? On a small boat it could be in the engine room as they are often plumbed to the cooling system
I think Hatteras started loosing their way back in the late 90s when they reduced the size of their aft decks on most motoryachts. This may work...
minuses to have Navnet 3D black box on the 84 which was a lot better than the new Garmins on the 110. The radar had much better range although...

It s all wrong. there are two speeds that make sense on a power boat. Hull speed or on plane. Hull speed is 1.3 x sq root of LWL... which on...
So you didn’t “buy” but had the boat under contract... Not sure being 200hr over due for the 1000 hours service is worth loosing the thousands...
