    Yamaha Command Link Plus

    I hope I can be concise...let's see. At the end of the season here on Cape Cod, one morning as we headed out I noticed the lower left indicator on my Command screen was not responding. My first thought was I thought it was the oil pressure. Not low, just the gauge with no pressure read out...

    I got a 2013 226 Seafarer last fall. We had enough good weather to get in a few hours and its a nice boat. Seller had a small 5" Garmin GPS and I found (after asking several folks who presumably have some experience, and on line reviews??) 9" Garmin Echomap UHD 94sv that seems good for $700...
