Good Morning everyone.
I have a 2005 260DA. Currently my boat has a Garmin 545s Chartplotter. It's okay, but it is a little finnicky and it is seven years old or so, and I would like to make an upgrade.
What are you guys running in your similar boats?
I really like the Raymarine units. But I am trying to see if I can use the current opening in my helm station. The Garmin 545s fits very nicely. Is anyone aware of a unit that will pop right in there without too much cutting? Or is there a way to fabricate a trim piece or something? I have seen some people with 260's that have a swivel bracket mounted on top of the helm. I do not prefer this method as it looks after the fact.
Picture attached for reference. Your assistance is appreciated!
