sapete =safety damn auto correct :))
Hello there , complimenti for Your review. I bought few weeks ago the Flir M232 for my boat because was looking for sapete during night cruising BUT i was surprised how useless it is... M232 is good to enter/exit from harbour or during night anchor BUT for night cruising i'm not satisfied as my eye saw a big ostacle almost one minute before was visibile on flir monitor.... i need some5hing that is better than my eye duri g night navigation.... Do U think M300C will risolve my problem? Thanks for Your help
Hi love your channel. How could I do that on a garmin 943, maybe thur the rj45 or mini usb any insight would be greatly appreciated
Thanks very informative and easy to understand.
Great video, mate. I think the 1 thing that a lot of people want to see is the breakdown of differences between TZT3 and the TZ XL.
The biggest take away from our first hand use is the faster speeds of the unit, the improved and updated charting. This is what most people are noticing right away. Behind the scenes the ability to plug cables directly into the unit instead of the pig tail is a nice touch. As is the front mounting face for the displays.
Im interested in the cabin .. it has a tv and a it can sleep 2? Does it have ac/ heat? .. can a shower be installed or not enough room for a shower ?
Can it be installed on the dash a foot away from your echomap ? Also is this good for keeping your heading when jigging fish in one spot. ?
For best results you will want to mount this with a clear view of the sky (usually on a hard top) if you are looking for a better solution for heading, then you will want to look at something like the Garmin MSC -10 Sat compass
Thanks Sully! I've been waiting for this update and thought it would come through Active Captain. I always learn something from you.
Kevin, once you do this software update, and as long as you have the ethernet connection into your stereo all future updates should be via the active captain app!
Software has a bug that interferes with XM weather on the MFD. May need to shut down NEAMA 2000 network for approx 15 min then reboot entire system bringing fusion online last.
this is interesting as we have not seen this yet but will be sure to keep an eye out for it
Can they be connected directly to Internet via wifi or ethernet cable ?
No at this time Garmin uses the Active Captain app as the access point / connection for connectivity and updates.
this would make a hell of an offshore boat. clean transom and 3 mpg. Just need to be in a lower price point form me lol.
I hope this trickles down to a 26-28 foot package one day. Very impressive boat.
SWEET!!!
@Navtronics Thank you for all the info. I am looking to install it on an aluminum center console boat. I am concerned about the ambient temperature spec of only +55 degrees C (131F) . Any thoughts?
My first question is where are you installing this onboard that you are seeing constant temps in that range? I would like to add some ventilation into that space for sure. It is become more and more common on some of our bigger installed to add in a simple thermostatically controlled DC fan to keep the air flow moving to keep temps down.
@@navtronicsmarinegroup I don't have it installed yet. It just seems possible that an boat center console made of aluminum could reach that temperature in direct sunlight. I will definitely look at properly ventilating the console. I like the idea of a thermostatically controlled fan. The boat is currently being built (18' bay style fishing boat).Thanks for getting back with me so fast.
512GB MicroSD mapping card included in the back of that bad boy as well.
Is this DSC test number still working? And does this work in most ports on the east coast of the US?
As far as we are aware this is still the most current way to test your VHF. Of course your mileage may vary depending on where your located
Who would one want the SK Ride to level out a monohull during turning? Doesn't make sense to me as the lean helps the mono carve a turn.
All in what some people want. Some prefer the lean into the curves others prefer the flat ride, and seakeeper ride gives them that options.
hey mate, quick question are you aware of anyone using fruno screens with empirbus instead of garmin screens? possible?
At this time I am not aware of anything. Seeing as it requires N2K and Ethernet I would guess it would not be an easy task to make happen. Add into the mix that Empirbus is now a fully owned Garmin company and it makes it seem to be even less likely at this time
Hi, any information on when TZTXL 16" will be released?
Not at this time. Hopefully by late fall.
@@navtronicsmarinegroup Thanks a lot for your prompt response, I hope too. Anyway, very detailed video.
Nice job, as a marine electronics installer I enjoy your work! Keep it coming.
very nice
Impressive boat❤
Hi can It chart a wreck if you pass over it for example I'm steaming along whilst mapping in 3d or whatever the best features are available and scroll back once I'm back in port to assess the saved images of the sea floor thanks
correct, you will be able to create your own bathe charts . for best results you will want to use a DFF3D sonar module and some type of AHRS senor, usually a sat compass
good stuff!
damn. so close. need 22 circuits and this isn't stackable.
This is really helpful. Thank you. I'm about to install one of these for the first time. Googling for two weeks mostly I just found information that wasn't basic enough. This is exactly what a newbie needs. (My next big question is I have a sailboat with a 63' mast. That means the 'drop' NMEA from the wind instruments is 3x greater than the maximum 6m/ 20'. I'm guessing there must be some way to run the backbone 45' up the mast (and back down again) with some kind of minimal T connector. Or something else?? (And good news. If I'm pulling out my hair to learn and do this then according to the way Murphy's Law works for me... all this will be wireless in 6 months.)
If these instruments need data and power I would use separate cables for them. Make the connection up there as good as you can if possible by using soldering and shrink tubing for insulation. You don't want to go up there every week for fixing them. Provide strain relief for the cables. You dont want 60 feet of cable pulling on the connections. Don't use single strand solid cable. Below deck preferebly in a watertight box you can add a cut NMEA cable long enough to go to straight to your display or NMEA backbone. Wireless instruments exist. They aren't cheap.
can you put a larger card in any of the Garmin units? I have a 8610xsv
as long as you do at least software version 35.1 than yes you can
@@navtronicsmarinegroup thank you,i read that you may need to install an external card reader on the 10"
@@seanfoley9055 I have not heard anything to that sort, but full disclosure we don't often work with the 10" display
Worst music ever.
Great video, I just bought a Garmin GPSMAP 743xsv. I am going to have it professionally flush mounted. I noticed that there is an SD card in one of the 2 slots which is in the rear of the unit. I am not sure what's on the card. Should I leave it in or take it out. I did install a blank card into the second slot, what should I do?
The unit comes with a blank SD card in place for you to use as an active captain card. However most people select to put in a larger size card than what the unit came with.
@@navtronicsmarinegroup Thank you so much, now I know!
Great job Chris! Thank you.
Can you explain in a bit more detail what you mean when you said the fuses are to protect the wire and not a device. Where does the wire come from that goes to the fuse block? And then it goes to the device after? As in MFD or USB charger, or ignition?
Great question and one that we get asked often - per ABYC standards, we run wire for the install based on the load (i.e. how much power is this item going to draw) So lets say we have a Bilge pump that has a nominal amp draw of 12 amps. And lets say the wire run from the battery to the pump is 5'. We have to measure the round trip of that so that's 10'. We use ABYC standards for amp draw and circuit length that tells us we should have a 14 gauge wire. I say all of that to get to this point - if this bilge pump ends up with a rotor lock (pump is trying to run but can spin due to something stuck in the pump) the amp draw will ramp up. Because the amp draw ramp up if there was no fuse we would quickly be drawing more amperage than the wire is capable of handling. This would create heat and eventually let the smoke out of the wire and potentially start a fire. Now if we put a fuse near the battery (source of power) and have this same scenario as soon as that rotor lock event happens and the amps spike the fuse will blow and the wire will be saved as designed. Conversely if you put in a 30 amp fuse into this scenario, it would take longer to blow (or possibly not blow at all) in the mean time the wire will heat up from the increased amperage that is above what it is designed to handle. Again worse case scenario here is letting out the smoke and a fire starting all while not tripping the fuse because it was over sized and it didn't reach its max amp limit to blow. Hopefully you have made it this far in the response and that answered your question!
@@navtronicsmarinegroup haha. Yes I made it that far. Not to long at all when it’s a great explanation (that did need some backup as well). Thanks and have a great weekend.
Great video!
Nice!
very informative !thanks again
When doing this job in place in order to not introduce new potential leakage in the fuel pipes it’s a bit tricky to keep the lower rubber seal in place, it falls down! Could a small amoun of grease hold the seal in right place when putting the bowl in place?
Hi!! Great videos, especially the Southport 33 DC's. Can Sabre handle all of the electronics as a factory install or does the customer have the option for your company to do the complete electronics install?? Curious as to the advantage of one over the other. Thanks !!
Hello, so the short answer is we are a partner with Sabre from the Technology part of things. The longer version - All Sabre models come equipped with Volvo Penta Glass Bridge displays. On most models, Sabre does not offer any further electronics/navigation so the client then has the option to choose us to do the additional up fitting for items like Radar, Sounders, cameras, etc. This allows for the build to be custom tailored to exactly what the end user wants and not be forced into purchasing additional items they may not want. Even if the customer does not choose to have Navtronics do the electronics install, there is an option on all Sabres to have it pre-wired for navigation with runs of network and NMEA cables pre run through the boat
Great video!
Great thank you. Adder to my video list “Generator Maintenance”
I guess I should’ve watched the whole video first looks like I just need to buy the adapters to connect my radar and auto pilot directly to the back of the display. Which is how they are currently operating on the 8600. They just plugged into the back of the displayas usual awesome video well, done
Does this mean my Garmin phantom radar and my Garmin auto pilot are not compatible without going through all the additional hardware to make them work?
Why is no one questioning the outlandish cost for a 4K monitor with a prety basic processor? Put it all in a GPS and jack up the prices exponentially. Can't see the value here.
If you are so inclined, one can certainly attempt to build something with off the shelf parts. But good luck getting things like Charts with Radar overlay, controlling your AP from your MFD, be voltage stable from 11-28 volts among all the other things. Never mind someone's time to set up, build, and validate. What you are paying for here is something that is first and foremost is stable, daylight viewable, and robust. It has been tested and validated to work as promised and that piece of mind in navigation equipment above all else I think is what people want. We certainly would like to see another option available in the mix, if you think you can build that, maybe we will feature it
Blue net, 1Gb PC router/switch with waterproof connectors?
correct it is nothing more than a replacement for the very old GMS 10 which was a RJ 45 network switch.
7 x faster with 4 x the pixels isn't such a big increase!
4K! Is it really needed, huge premium, hard to justify such an impost.
You may not find the need for it, but as charts data only increases over the next few years it will become very apparent why it is important. But just like everything else some people are ok with a 1080p TV set and some people will see the value in having the 4k option. Its not going to be for everyone that's why they make numerous options in sizes and pricing
I’m not the intended demo for this but it’s a great, and long overdue, idea.
So bummed won’t fit on my Yamaha 275 sdx.
Can you run two of these at a time on the same NMEA 2000 network? Does the MFD recognize both at the same time for all of the switches or would you have to pic 1 then the other?
No this system is designed to run just as a stand alone single unit. you would end up with conflicting PGN's If you want to handle more loads then this then you would best to look at something from the C Zone world
Looks cool, what number plexus did you use..
Got to ask, how do you overlay the Garmin footage? How do I get it out of the Garmin? Thanks
Boatswitch works great as you have shown, but really comes awesome when you make a custom home page for it - put the switches you need on the home page and access them faster and easier
Agreed! Once we get this build finalized I believe that is part of the plan
