Electronics

I have got great present from the son.  Radar, yes it is B&G (Navico) Halo20+ . 

 Sure i do not need it here in the lake, but as soon as i plan to bring boat to big water, it will be very good add-on to my navigation electronics setup.

No sense to make the mount right now (before transportation) but will be nice to test its compatibility  with my OpenCPN setup.

I designed  "cheap and dirty" radar bracket to tie radar to the mast for testing. Cut and it on my CNC from plywood and glue together.

Next weekend plan to get radar on the water and see how it's work.

 


 

 Standing rigging 

Measuring angles of the shrouds. 

 Took picture from far away point to get closer to real angles.
