- Marine Trader 47’ Sundeck
This is for our 47 Marine Trader. She’s got no electronics. A depth finder up top only and a pretty old VHF.
I did some reading and read that radar can pick up things like crab pots? That’s amazing. Our Mainship had an old 1996 radar that could kinda pick up channel markers, but nothing smaller.
I plan to use an iPad for navigation.
I’d love to hear thoughts on radars. Also I’ll be installing it myself, so there’s that.
Also, do they have repeaters or something for the lower helm?
Thanks guys.
Edit: sorry this should have been in the electronics section.
