I am having a semi custom boat built. The builder has been great until I asked to change the waste monitoring system to the Maretron FPM 100 with the correct pressure transducer. The builder uses the WEMA system which I believe uses a standard 5 hole SAE fitting same as the Maretron pressure transducer.
I was told it would be 10k to install the pressure transducer and I would supply the pressure transducer. I would be responsible for the NEMA2000 network and have to sign a disclaimer. Obviously they do not want to do this change order. I am fine with paying a reasonable fee for my modification.
This does not seem complicated, just a simple swap which is easy to do while the boat is being built. What am I missing? Suggestions? Should I just wait until the boat is delivered? Thanks.
