Here is a shot of my 2002 helm. All original equipment; no thrusters. I am definitely interested in any of the upgrades you are considering. Right now, I rely on Navionics on an iPad for navigationView attachment 105669
Nice looking helm! Does the original plotter not work right or is it just not user friendly enough?
The Garmin 5212 on ours works great and adding the second 5212 will be a nice-to-have. My second electronics upgrade will be the Garmin Wi-Fi adapter so I can use Active Captain in conjunction with the boat.

As far as my dead system monitor goes, I will probably play with original system a bit to get it going. If it isn't an easy fix I'll put this in https://aqualarm.net/automatic-sys-...4.html?zenid=0e939534381c9f8393b076fe7944c384
The alarm is not pretty, but simple and functional. I will have to see if I can find some burl to make the install look somewhat professional. This site has Sea Ray repro panels. Hoping I can just get a sheet from them. https://www.searay-parts.com/Sea-Ra...Y&sort=1&cat=842&show=30&page=1&brand=Sea Ray
I also want to remove the old depth and fish finder units.
