265 x with Nav Pilot 300

Hi All. A quick question. Where did you mount the processor unit?

Tks

I have garmin but the CCU is under the captain's feet...remove drawers in cabin. Perfect spot...dry, centerline and low.

Also, 265 has great space and access to hydraulics and wiring behind the tackle drawers/under sink. Great place for the pump.

Tks Skunk. I started today. I was in the doldrums until you replied. I got SCX-20 up and was wondering where to fit the Nav 300 processor. I had the drawer pulled out but the dime hadn't dropped. After yoj replied I went into shed and put this together. I did this in 45 minutes. I spent the rest of the afternoon trying to get cables down there to no avail.

There is a gap to get wires thru. I seem to remember removing a panel in the head

I have her all opened up but all passage ways are full despite her having had little to know electronics.

there are two pipes to chase behind the helm on my 265

It would be a good idea to encapsulate that plywood in epoxy before you do the final install.
