    DAME award winner VOLVO PENTA assisted docking

    I don’t get the hate against these systems. No one is saying don’t be able to dock without them. They’re to assist. It would be like turning off your car’s parking sensors and camera so you’re seen to be a better driver.

    Sunseeker Stand - Southampton Boat Show 2021

    Seaward 35 or NordStar 31?

    Cheap, or backup tracking device

    Navionics. Relief Shading.
