I have attached a picture of my current helm. As you can see I already have all of the electronics that I previously elaborated on except for the 3G radar. Everything is 2008 technology with marginal display. What is there now is a Garmin 545S, Vesselview with DTS and an Icom VHF.

The two GO9 XSE will give me superior display. The GO9 XSE for the Vesselview will give me a larger display and able to have multiple windows open. The other GO9 XSE will give me enhanced sonar, chartography and radar.

My boat is docked in Cape May Harbor. About half of my fishing is at night. I fish all of the inshore structure like jetties, the reefs that are 6 to 15 miles out and the complete Delaware Bay.

All of what you see will be replaced or improved.

I determined now that the two GO9 XSE will fit in the starboard and port portions of the dash. The Simrad RS35 VHF will mount where the Vesselview display is now. Ordered 3/8" thick black starboard that will fill in the opening and give me a good surface to mount the Simrad RS35 VHF. I will router the edges of the patch and hopefully it will look OEM.

Thank you for your replies!
