Decided to address a few of the issues I've had with the 302.
Upgraded the tired old GPSMap 520 to a Sonar capable GPSMAP 742xs with the new Airmar P75M Chirp transducer.

Had to create a new Dash to accommodate the 16x9 format of the 742.

The Dash isn't perfect, (I'm probably the only one who will notice) but it's good enough for now. I'm looking at a few other materials / color combinations for long term.

Here's a few pics of before, during, and after to oogle over

Also took the opportunity to add a second under dash "selector" button and split the wiring so that I could separate the two Tach LCD screens.
This let's me cycle each screen independently to display different engine data.

What I'd like to eventually do is either hook the Garmin into the existing Medallion "engine management" data feed, or setup a separate NMEA2k network to pull in the engine data. Just don't know if that would eliminate the data feeds to the Medallion gauges.

Nice thing about going with the new P75M transducer, I can keep the factory thru hull transducer that feeds water temperature to the dash.

Wow. Nicely done and huge upgrade. I see you had to move the gauges over slightly as it’s all very proportional now.

I like it. Nice job Eric.
