I just discovered (new to me at least) that Signet Marine sells refurbished Signet Marine traditional round instruments and sensors. http://www.signetmarine.com/products-2/used_instruments/used.html. They give seemingly-appropriate warnings about reduced appearance and expected lifespan, and

My 30 year old Signet Marine depth and speed instruments have never failed. They still sell them and they're rock solid. www.signetmarine.com/. I suspect you may have water in your cables that is eventually penetrating the impeller. As to modern the Airmar looks good and is nmea 2000.

There are ultrasonic speed transducers (no moving parts), but they aren’t cheap (around $650?). Arimar makes them, as well. Marek From: Della Barba, Joe via CnC-List Sent: Wednesday, November 30, 2016 08:52 To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: Della Barba, Joe Subject: Stus-List speed instrument
