Persistence has the i50/i60 series and previous boat had the ST60 series. I50/i60 are very nice to use and easy to read. I think the ST60 is a bit more robust though. The i50/i60 series are mounted with four tiny screws on the corners that are covered by a bevel whereas ST60 had much more robust fasteners. I would think that if you had to remove these each Fall this could be a point of concern. Persistence is covered so I leave ours mounted making this not a problem.
Functionally the i50/i60 are very good and I would not hesitate to go this route again Mike Persistence Halifax, NS From: CnC-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of John and Maryann Read via CnC-List Sent: Saturday, December 01, 2018 7:15 PM To: [email protected] Cc: John and Maryann Read Subject: Stus-List Instruments Our ancient Standard Horizon suite of wind, speed and depth works well except the apparent wind. Am suspecting the sending unit electronics are in need of replacement but none available. The depth and speed work great. We do not have auto pilot and do not integrate with GPS, chart plotter or AIS as no need We intend to upgrade the suite of wind, speed and depth and ask opinions of which brand, etc to consider. Am inclined to the Raymarine I60 / I50 suite due to read outs are very readable, proven technology, lower cost, ready availability of repair parts, can integrate with NMEA 2000 etc etc. Hole size in hull is same as current, Would need to drill new holes in bulkhead but have the room https://www.defender.com/product3.jsp?name=raymarine-i50-i60-depth-speed-and-wind-systems-pack&path=-1|344|2028690|2028820&id=2086335 Thoughts of the group? Fred is this something you can deal with? John and Maryann Legacy III 1982 C&C 34 Noank, CT
