Electronics

• This system is designed to maintain two independent navigation systems simultaneously.   Under normal configuration they use the same GPS input, but with a few mouse clicks the PC can receive its input from a handheld GPS, and both the GPS and Computer can run for over an hour on their internal batteries.

  • RayMarine integrated system in the cockpit

  • Windows PC system in the salon with a monitor visible from the cockpit

• A backup computer is carried with all the charts and software so a different computer can be swapped out in a few minutes if necessary.
