My wife and I often walk to the nearby marina in Emsworth which gave us the opportunity to look at different types of mast. The boat only had a tiny mast that neither device would fit. Following all the excitement of the bargain purchases I now had to fit them to my boat. I thought I’d probably try fitting radar in a year or two when I was using this boat more.īut when I saw an ex-demonstration, virtually brand new Raymarine Quantum Radar for sale on an internet site I couldn’t resist and jumped at the opportunity. Then I bought my little Trusty T23 motorboat that I was eventually going to use for trips, perhaps as far as the West Country. I was at a boat jumble and saw a brand new one at a give away price and snapped it up. On a previous boat of mine an Echomax Active-X Radar Target Enhancer (RTE) was fitted and when using it I felt confident that I might be more visible to bigger boats, especially at night and in poor visibility.
