ORCA Nav System - Fitting the Charging Mount
The Charging Mount for the Orca navigation system makes it very safe to use in the cockpit, with the added bonus of charging the display at the same time.. In this video I explore the best place to install the mount, does the warning about magnetic interference affect the steering compass? The ORCA company gave me this equipment, but they don't have any editorial input over my content. I have to say I like this system very much; if you're inspired to check it out and maybe get one too, using this link will help me tremendously! https://getorca.com/?via=jim 00:00 Intro 02:13 Checking For a safe mounting position, how close can the compass be? 03:58 The 2 mounting options 05:25 Measuring for clearance around other kit 06:26 Setting up the drilling template 08:00 Drilling holes! 09:39 The mount goes onto the bulkhead 12:03 Routing the cable 13:40 Finally bolting the mount to the bulkhead 15:28 Admiring the finished result More techy videos: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZCvVhEwq-ebqGP4YiFI_f7lU1BwXF9Tx Jester '25 sailing playlist is here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZCvVhEwq-ebINsWIXC8RV92KwNZ4EBP0 Different ways to support this channel: 1.
