When buying radar, what are some of the considerations I need to take into account? |
You must take into consideration the size of your vessel's helm area, the size of the area available to mount the antenna, your vessel's electricity capacity, and the amount of money you want to spend. Obviously, the most important step in beginning this process is to determine the requirements you have for the type of radar that you are looking for. There are a wide variety of types and sizes and it is important to narrow down your requirements. Educate yourself by visiting a marine store and learning the models they are recommending for the type of requirements you may have.
