Welcome to the forum, Bruno. I’m also a new member to this site. You’ll find it very informative and a lot of nice people with great advice. Congrats on the new boat purchase. You’re gonna love it. It’s a Cobalt, what more needs to be said?

Well It sure did take a while to get here but it's finally here!!

Will Launch this weekend! Can't wait!!!

[NautiGirl]

Nice! Beautiful boat! You are going to love it. I’ve already put 12hrs on mine since taking delivery about a month ago.

Wow, She's a beaut!.....

[jhnmdahl]

Looks great, Bruno!

It’ll be interesting to see if you swap out any particular marine electronics. Ocean stuff is a whole different world - probably no great place to put a 16” Raymarine or Simrad on even a 27’ Cobalt

I will be running the boat with the electronics it comes with for now. The idea of ripping a brand new boat apart doesn't appeal to me.

I will need to spend some time really learning their displays. I have a Garmin, same model but older, that I have been playing with for a month or so, playing a little here and there. It's not as intuitive as what I am used too. But it is an older display with older software so maybe they have gotten better since this one came out. In all fairness, I am part of the problem here. I have been doing things "Our Way" for so long, it's hard to think that there's another way!!!

Sharp sharp! And you’ll like those tabs! Why would the electronics be out dated?

[Brunosr]

Thanks cmatti,

The new displays on the boat are not outdated. It's the one I have been using at home for the last month or so, learning the machine, is out dated.

I work for another Marine Electronics company and Garmin does things a little different than I am used to.

Understand.. it will be interesting to get your take on how another mfg does there process.

Welcome, and if you work for Lowrance I’ll bet you’d love to help me configure my HDS!

Sorry, I don't work for Lowrance but I bet they have a product support team that would love to help you out.
