One thing I learned about the Furuno 12" chartplotter is that you have to go to the plotter to turn it on each time. Simply applying power to it from down below will not turn it on. This is a negative feature for me as when the weather is crappy and I will be using the laptop MaxSea Time Zero chartplotting software, I will be relying on the NMEA bus from the chartplotter on the fly bride. This means I will have to go outside and up top just to turn it on. What a nuisance !

Thanks for that gem of information.* We will certainly keep that in mind as we set up our nav electronics on our new boat.*
