Made a quick trip to complete the final touches to the instrumentation. This will likely be the last of the hardware installation as anything else can be linked wirelessly to the ipad.
The photo above shows the old Garmin used for autopilot , boat speed,and storing tracks of our journey. (you can see a few on it now). Below the Garmin is the second station remote microphone and display. This connects to the larger recieved down below. This identifies and tracks the GPS location other vessels in the area and can link instantly to the coast guard sending the boats GPS coordinates. It's also boats VHF radio.
On the left, the Ipad with INAVX application will do the serous navigation and routing. It has Weather forecast overlays, tides, and will connect to any instrument I add such as wind speed, engine monitoring, battery charging ....just about anything.
Spent the night after a nice easy sail with some of the buddies at the marina. Found that Panta Rhei's new oven reaches 480 deg. and is a great pizza oven.
