Which Chartplotter for a Hunter 320

[Stephen W. Dale]

I am looking to add a chartplotter on my 2000 Hunter 320 on the pedistal. I am looking at either the Standard 150 color or the Raymarine RC435. I have a Raytheon 4000 wheel autopilot. I noted that the raymarine RC435 does not have seatalk. Also - where would be the best place to purchase?

Chart Plotter

I had the same issue and eventually settled for the Raymarine 520 on my 326. I found that I could put this on the binnacle rather than below decks. It is only black and white rather than colour, but this is something you need to weigh up from a cost/benefit perspective. I find the C-Map charts very good and the update service quite reasonable. The plotter screen is also visible in bright sunlight. The plotter has Seatalk so is linked to my Depth/log/wind ST40 kit. I am not sure whether it will talk to your autopilot. The next step up is the colour version, which I think is the 720, but alot more cost. Good luck with this.
