The electronics installed on your yacht are NEMA 2000
compatible which permits system components to share
information with other marine-network compatible devices.
Refer to your GPS/ plotter owner’s manual for further
information.
Be aware of the vessel’s bridge clearance specifi cations to
avoid equipment/vessel damage due to impacting a bridge
structure since a great portion of the antenna/receiving
equipment is mounted on the hard top. Remember that the
masthead light on the hardtop can be lowered if needed.
The VHF radio uses a whip style fi berglass antenna which
is “trimmed” to provide the best output and reception.
The TV antenna mounted on the hard top is shaped liked
a saucer.
The satellite weather antenna is now located under the
forward deck.
For further information on antennas refer to each vendor’s
owners manual.
The GPS/plotter antenna is located on top of the aft hard
top on early models or under the forward deck on later
models. The antenna includes a built-in position fi xing
receiver. The GPS plotter features a fi lter that compen-
sates for the rolling motion of your boat for clearer course
and speed information. The antennae are protected by
individual plotter breakers.
