NAVICO DL 160 or DL 200 units

[Valentina]

Hey, there sailors. Just bought a boat that has Navico DL 160 speed and depth logs in the cockpit. Both units are badly UV damaged, so it's impossible to read, but the paddle wheel and thru-hull transducer are in good shape.
Does anybody know if these transducer and wheel can be used with any other devices??? I know that Navico got bought out by Simrad (but that's all I know so far). There are 2 holes in my boat that have these sensors installed, so it would be nice to use them.
Anyone familiar with these NAVICO DL 160 ???
Does anyone know where to get a spare display?(or the one that would work?
Thanks,
Alex

They are slow and frustrating to deal with but I think this is the right place to go for parts. Apperantly this outfit handles all the parts distribution. Good luck

I just replaced my DL200 because it broke. I replaced it with a Raymarine ST40. The good news is the thru hull hole was the same size. the bad news is the boat needs to be on the hard to do the replacement. I know I haven't answered your questions directly, but I recommend you replace the units because NAVICO no longer make them and their support is limited.
