I kept my originals in my 86 2001, just plug up my portable Garmin using suction cup and rock on. Best of both!,

Can anyone using the external gps conversion kit from Nautic Laudic tell me where you mounted the antenna or if it can be mounted under the dash?

Under the dash works just fine.

When I spoke with someone from Nautic Laugic, they said that I would need to drill an additional hole in the back of my current speedometer to allow room for the pigtail. Has anyone else had to do this? Just curious how big the hole is and how it looks. They said I couldn’t use the internal unit for my 77 Ski Tique Speedo.

Yes. 1/2” ish. You will want to enlarge the hole used by the pitot tubing. You want to know how the back of the housing looks with the larger hole?

Very similar to the way it looks now... but the hole for the pitot tubing is slightly larger (1/2”).
The hole is round. |

I found out why my Speedometer stopped working. There was a 2 year period of time between my father in-law owning the boat to my wife and I. The person prior to me put a radio in the dash. When I removed the radio last night, you can see the top right corner of the radio hole where he cut through the pitot tube.

He must have plugged the tubing coming from the pitot itself or you'd have water spraying around under the dash while the boat was moving

It was also cut further back in the boat where he put speakers. The radio and all of the components have been removed and will be reglassed. I don’t see a need for the radio, you usually can’t hear it over the engine.
