I have a Bad Elf Pro and tried to go Ipad just for kicks but the screens wash out on IOS devices in the sun and require you to take your sunglasses off unless you use them at night. I have 2 Garmins, one 7610 xsv and a 4212 xsv to handle the nav and sonar requirements. I did bring my Ipad on last years trip and expanded my cell coverage before hand to have internet coverage. I have a G2 vision card for the Bahamas that worked as well as the Navionics app on my Ipad.

Mel and I would love to go with the newly refirbed sled but I just can't commit to travel plans when 3 party work is being done on the boat. Done by dates seem to only be an estimate.... that and Mel has been requesting add ons.
