The order was processed quickly and correctly, as usual. The I60 with wind transducer was easily integrated into the existing installation with Raytheon ST60 Tridata and Raytheon ST4000Plus autopilot, Raymarine Axiom 9" using the Seatalk1 Seatalk NG converter kit and NG Seatalk cable.
No difficulties in installation. Provide the Seatalk NGSeatalk cable which is not present in the original kit to be used on old ST60 instruments. Otherwise, everything works perfectly, my ST4000 receives the wind angle information well and I have my true wind with the information from the speed sensor of the TriData ST60
I ordered this Kit for direct plug and play use on a Seatalk and non-seatalk Ng network and the kit did not include the corresponding cable yet described on the SVB website. Small mail to SVB and super pro response with fast sending cable not present in the Kit. Thank you for your professionalism and professionalism
I am equipped with Raymarine and am very satisfied. i60 is compatible with my pilot to navigate the wind so no surprise.In my purchases I had a defective screen excellent responsiveness of the team SVB I had someone competent on the phone (rare nowadays! ), my instant return label on my mail and sending a replacement screen upon receipt of return 2j.
After my ST50 wind indicator sadly gave up the ghost after 30 years, I needed a replacement!
The design matches my still-functioning ST50 Tridata. Installation was relatively straightforward, although the existing hole had to be significantly enlarged. Even though the existing cable from the old unit could have been used in the mast, I replaced it with the included cable. Cables do age, after all. For the necessary deck separation, I used a slim, waterproof 5-pin connector from the automotive sector (available online for a song (€7)).
It remains to be seen how long the plastic mast mount will last. The previous one for the ST50 was aluminum. All the parts seem to be of high quality.
The wind measurement system has yet to be installed on the boat, but with this proven brand you can assume that everything will work perfectly. The interaction with the B&G system on the boat is interesting.
Weather vane not yet installed on my sailboat. But it's Raymarine so no worries. I would only install it when I got back from the cruise. A detail during the ordering process SVB does not ask for confirmation of the shipping address and applies the default address registered on the site. It's too bad. In this case It was necessary to deliver elsewhere and thank you to my correspondent Wilfried who was very responsive.
