Our Tommy was refitted in 2019 with a range of B&G electronics:
Zeus³ 9 chart plotter
The Zeus³ 9 fitted a navpod at the aft helm is a complete chartplotter navigation system designed for blue water cruisers. The ultra-bright, wide-angle display combines an all-weather 9-inch touchscreen with a rotary dial and keypad for ultimate control in all conditions. Sailing features include SailSteer, Laylines, and RacePanel. Its built-in Wi-Fi connects with online services and my iPad and integrates seamlessly with the B&G AIS/DSC VHF, Triton display and forward seeking sonar. It also integrates with Our Tommy’s autopilot and PredictWind.
Zeus³ V60-B VHF Marine Radio, DSC, AIS RX/TX
Features a built-in GPS and a full Class B AIS transmitter and receiver, which allows Our Tommy to see and be seen by nearby AIS-equipped vessels and her 3 rescueME MOB1 beacons fitted to the lifejackets.
This radio integrates with the portable wireless handset mounted in the wheelhouse (right).
Triton² Digital display
Our Tommy’s Triton² Digital display is mounted in the wheelhouse and has a 4.1-inch colour screen, optically bonded for zero condensation and featuring trans-flective LCD technology for exceptional contrast and visibility in all lighting conditions. It connects the entire electronic suite via Our Tommy’s NMEA2000 backbone.
ForwardScan Long Stem Transducer
Our Tommy’s ForwardScan sonar allows her skipper to know what lies ahead by displaying on the Zeus³ 9 a clear two-dimensional image of the bottom in front of the vessel thus allowing me to navigate shallow or poorly-charted waters with confidence. It has real-time updates and a forward-looking view of up to eight times your current depth.
WS320 Wireless Wind Pack
This high precision wireless wind sensor, mounted atop the main, provides exceptional data accuracy and aerodynamics.
