T&T: Airmar Speed Transducer

[Ron Rogers]

Furuno (and probably others) offers this "Smart transducer" (mine came in an 
Airmar box) in several versions: temp,speed, depth; speed, depth; etc. 
Although they attach to most Furuno NavNet gear, you can buy an RD30 which 
provides a readout for this and other NEMA gear.

several

| bad, or indifferent. Not having to clean a paddle wheel would be nice,
| but not if the sensor doesn't work for well."
