Charlie, if you were asking to see Stella's helms, I'm afraid these are the best I have . . . pre-dating the 7212. Radar would be on the block of wood on the left side of the flybridge helm. This is where I'd mount the 7212. The 7612 would go on the right. I expect I'll have to do some rearranging on the lower helm to fit two large MFDs and may just settle for one there.

Beautiful helms... I felt your pain on leaving the plotter outside, hence the NavPod. Use a good approved lubricant on your exposed terminations too. Baggies seem to encourage condensation.
