NEW NAV STATION DONE! (mostly) Custom navigation station on a classic sailboat
Navigation Station Build Out Part 6: Completion of the Nav Station
Hello Friends,
It felt the day would never come…
On this episode I finish up (mostly) hooking up the last instruments of the new nav station. I take us through the different elements of the Aft panel and talk about the KJM antenna splitter that my Digital Yacht AIS/GPS/VHF combo antenna and splits the signal between my ICOM VHF radio, Digital Yacht iAis receiver and my new JBL stereo.
here is a link to the Combo Antenna I mentioned in the video ( https://youtu.be/OXOBssKPEWg )
Once we get everything hooked up finally get to see the panels all of their glory with lights on and switches switched.
A week or so after this video I got a 9′ long Sea talk cable in so now everything is hooked up and working on the panels.
As I mentioned in the video I will be doing a follow up video going through each piece, showing you the cost and when I purchased it.
I also have a special video just about the NMEA 0183 system I will be editing and uploading sometime soon.
Thanks to our patrons for your support and I hope y’all didn’t get too bored with the DIY REFIT series. We will be getting back to our adventure videos next with a trip me and Camille and her dog Mr. Steady took to Catalina for New Years Eve.
Fair Winds Until Next Time,
Sailor James
