    Installing Simrad NSX/SmartCraft and transducer; 2004 Sunesta 252

    If it was me........ I would mount it in front of the compass. And not spend the extra money on someone re-doing the helm. You may want a bigger boat, I did! On my last boat I went with a two 7" screens. A little bigger boat, a Sig 290. But I get it have a bigger screen.

    Lost my instrument panel lighting while instruments still working

    If it was me? I would go over all the wiring under the helm. The boat is now 16 yrs old. With that said, something could be loose and and you might have some corrosion building up on the connections and the wires. My own boat is 23yrs old. At times I had to cut the wire back due to the...

    I bet that's a $200 to $300 part. It can get out of hand at times.

    Installing Simrad NSX/SmartCraft and transducer; 2004 Sunesta 252

    Simrad, a very good choice. I would use 3M's 4000 fast cure caulking.

    Layers in my hull, boat made in 2013. What if there is a leak?

    If your up north, what you don't want is the water to freeze. That would only damage the glass inside.

    Sunesta Dock Light Bulb Retension Spring

    What about going with an LED and hard wire it to the harness? No spring or contacts to rust out.

    Layers in my hull, boat made in 2013. What if there is a leak?

    Its a meter that you place over the spot. Some have points/pins for wood. A good one is in the $120 to 200 range.

    Layers in my hull, boat made in 2013. What if there is a leak?

    If that that worried about it. Take the transducer off and remount it. Personally, I would not have used silicone. 4000 fast cure would do a better job.
