Raymarine ST-40
We are looking at installing complete instrumentation in our '76 C27. After looking around a lot, I have come to the conclusion that the instruments that seem to me to give the most bang for the buck, and which are viable on a long term basis are the Raymarine ST40's. If you want to spend more, go for the ST60's . . . Raymarine used to be Raytheon, and their instruments have a solid reputation. My interest has been in building over a couple of years a full set of good instruments that will talk to each other easily and which will accept a autopilot without trouble. The best system I have found is Raymarine's, and the ST40's do everything that I want them to do. You might check either Sailnet or www.pyacht.com which is where I have found the best prices. I think Sailnet currently has a sale for the whole package going on.George
