Mj, your system works great and is fool-proof as you know it. Can't say that I've ever worried about how much gas I have as I'm the one person that runs my boat and I always know about how much fuel I've burned. That said, what the flow meter does best is keep my throttle hand in check. I love to cruise around 44-4500, but the motor is most effiecient between 4 and 4200. Just keeps me from being crazy.

Rap, it will work if you install the fuel transducer downstream of where your tanks form one line. Maybe just down stream of your racor, you do have a racor right. You tell the system what size tank you have and then you tell it how much you have added or there is an option for tank full. The resolution is awesome on the plotter. I have Furuno sounder so can't comment on sonar.

HEY OZ, MINE IS JUST A GPS/ COLOR CHARTPLOTTER - I HAVE A RAYMARINE 365 FISHFINDER WITH SIDE LOOK CAPABILITIES - THE NAVMAN MEASURES FUEL FLOW - IT HAS AN INLINE SENSOR IN THE FUEL LINE - WHEN YOU SET IT UP YOU INPUT HOW MANY GALLONS OF FUEL YOUR TANK OR TANKS HOLD - WHEN YOU ADD GAS YOU INPUT THAT INTO THE SYSTEM. I LOVE THE NAVMAN - THERE IS SO MUCH WATER AROUND IT HELPS KNOWING WHATS AROUND - IT HAS BOTTOM DEPTHS, MARINAS, DOCKS, MORE INFO THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE. I COVERS ALL OF FLORIDA - BOTH COASTS - AND THE BAHAMAS ON THE C-MAP CHIP - I'LL NEVER USE IT ALL

Sure do. I believe in the smaller sizes they call them the "track/fish". Not sure what they call it but they came out w/ a big 12" unit this year also.
Try this for $644 ![]() or this for $808 ![]() Sometimes rebates, good rebates can be found on Navman products. Airslot

MJ, hate is such a strong word. I prefer to think of it in terms of Blondes, brunettes, and redheads. While I have my preferences, I don't hate any of them ;D
