We Built a CHEAP Kick A$$ Navigation System - Part 1

We REMOVED ALL the ANCIENT Electronics from Our 1969 Yacht When we bought our 1969 aluminum yacht, it came with outdated marine electronics-some of which hadn't worked in years. From an old radar system to a mess of wiring and dimming modules, everything had to go. In this video, we're tearing out decades-old tech and installing a modern navigation system to bring our boat into the 21st century. Blaine explains how radar, navigation, and electrical systems are crucial for safe offshore cruising. We'll show you what electronics came with the boat, our priorities for upgrading, and the challenges of rewiring a classic aluminum trawler. Watch as we remove the old radar, pull miles of old marine wiring, and install our new marine electronics step by step. If you love boat restoration, yacht refits, and DIY boat projects, this video is for you. We're sharing everything we learned along the way, so whether you're upgrading your own boat or just enjoy seeing old systems get modernized, stick around! #timezero #timezeroprofessional #navigationsoftware ?
