TackTick Display Installation
Last year I upgraded my boat's instruments to TackTick instruments after having some problems with my ST60 Wind instrument. This spring I finished the final installation of the displays.
Since the port side cockpit bulkhead had two holes from the original Raymarine display installation, I either had to patch the holes or do something else with that space, so I could mount the TackTick displays.
I wanted to add a port to the space, since this would give me additional ventilation options for the boat, as well as allow someone to pass coffee or other hot food out to the cockpit when sailing in heavy weather, without opening the companionway.
So, as a compromise, I mounted the TackTick displays to the port. This allows the port to still open, but also leaves the instruments in basically the same position as the Raymarine displays were located.
Here's a photo of the modification:
Sorry for the poor quality of the photo, since it was taken with my cell phone.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
