Look at the Volvo Penta Glass Cockpit here posted by a Volvo Penta Dealer in Singapore (Asia) at here --> http://volmag.blogspot.sg/2014/05/volvo-penta-glass-cockpit.html Still contemplating whether should I upgrade to this.

Any current users here able to advise the pros and cons ?

You can't do embedded links on this forum, ridiculous I know.

hmmm, first post and linking to an expensive advert. And an 'open' name.


Not that I am naturally suspicious of course.

I did wonder. What do you mean "open"?

Do we do "awesome" on the Practical Boat Owner's forum?

Seems a bit Mobo - or Y&Y - to me.

Saw the reference to dynamic positioning and wondered how I would achieve that on a Westerly Konsort. Heaving too would be the nearest thing but I'm not sure a glass cockpit would help:-\

A cockpit glass is good, though. Preferably containing G&T, red wine, or cold beer.

Thought my old Sadler was missing something, Dynamic Positioning System now that could be handy.
