I would like to install the compass and the brains of my new Raymarine Auto Pilot inside the Lazarette on my 30' O'day. I know I'm reaching in there a lot for buckets, cleaning equipment, and all sorts of stuff and I don't want to bump or knock the units. So I've come up with a possible solution. I'm thinking of building a protective box out of pvc board, which will be mounted on the bulkhead that divides the galley and the lazarette. Its would look something like this:
It would have no metal interference, it would be installed 3 ft away from and radios or other magnetic fields. Anyone have some thoughts on this?
