Dishonest in what way? I expressed an alternative view, which you may not agree with, but it's perfectly OK for me to express it on an open forum.

As dulls said when i did not. You were dishonest about my post and what i said and inferred.

As you've admitted, you inferred....

Are you normally dishonest about what people say in trivial posts? Or have i just caught you on a bad day?

We had separate screens on a commercial boat i operated to give redundancy. We could also overlay but we never did as most of us were used to reading them separately.

You seem unusually argumentative. Looking at your previous posts, it seems you tend to inhabit the Current Affairs forum, where people are known to be hostile. Maybe you should try going back there...

On my last boat we had everything down below on the chart table. No nav readouts in the cot pit. A simple set up and all small screens. GPS and Radar has been replaced but AIS is still there (Vesper watchmate.) Sailed around Australia and New Zealand with that.

Old Koden from the 90s. It worked but the power drain!

More pointless nonsense.
What if the boat has a Raymarine C series classic MFD fitted, used radome for £200-£300 and a NASA AIS for £120, that's substantially less than your £3k plus.
Seems to me that some of you just like to post something for the sake of it, no matter how pointless it is.

As you say, what suits one may not suit another. I prefer to have the data at the helm as i am often singlehanded

yes,, nearer my original " unfer 2k ",, and if he doesnt then a used one is around 600 £ ,, but he has decided he will need 4k !! whatever .

Apart from the facts.
LinTeal has told us he feels he will have to spend 4 to 5 grand to get the new set up required. Exactly as forecast.

it is an open field, you spend as much or as little as you want , from ( my calcs ) 1800 to 8k , depends on your requirements / purse .

Makes sense. I would go that way as well. I had the opportunity to put the AIS in cot pit but could not bring myself to do it as i was thinking about electrics and moisture outside. I think i was wrong to think that way with the way things are sealed now.

Funnily enough I like separates also... I think it is a brain/eye thing... I find that I assimilate the information better as two streams rather than as one, with each being checked against the other...
I have only sailed near the coast with radar and plotter but I have done so many times at night and in dense fog and I find the two screens at different scales and appearance easy to comprehend confidently...
I admit I am a dianasour... I have a one two both switch and blocking diodes and after my new Rocna did not set first time I considered getting my CQR out of the garden....
I also agree with the sentiment in post #28
