jason p Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 ...anyone know where the gauges got moved too? It does look clean. I'd imagine there on a piece of starboard inside the console, fished on an East Cape that was like that anyway. I imagine the motor is hooked to the Garmin via NMEA 2000 cable. Pretty slick I must say, it's nice to see people simplifying skiffs instead of adding stuff to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurricane Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 I like the slick look of no switches, and the fact they are more protected being inside. However I don't like that side throttle, its too far from the wheel and looks like it will catch my pants pocket every time I walk by it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason p Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 Yeah that's for sure. Wonder what model HPX that is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conocean Posted July 19, 2016 Report Share Posted July 19, 2016 Looks really clean with no switches but I wouldn't want to have to open my console door every time I want to turn something on or off. If the ignition is rigged thru the gps then what happens when the unit fails? Maybe I'm old school but I prefer a good ole key to turn over my motor. Definitely can't stand the side throttle; I would clip it every time I walk by. I experienced that on a Hells Bay I was on years ago and it drove me cray! I was going to mount a Garmin like that in my console but my gps rarely ever gets removed from my gear bag. It's probably a good setup for someone that uses a gps a lot and sits down while running. I mostly stand up when I run so that wouldn't work well for me the 2 or 3 times a year I use my gps. It looks like a 17T or 17HPX?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
