so, it would be interesting to discuss/combine ideas.

It's been tried but the group never got any traction. Went sideways

So do most people get away with installing these tracks and never have
leaks. With all the associated holes through the deck it would be very
fortunate to never experience leaking and with the liners in C&C boats that
leaking can be well hidden.

What Jim said is true. While the Airmar transducer may be the same for
Raymarine and B&G the difference may be in the wiring. For example what the
yellow wire may do for one instrument it may be different for the other.

It is an “Apple thing”.
The E911 regulations required only that if you can make a call, the 911
