Thanks for watching, I am glad you find this helpful. Let me know if you have any questions. I am building a similar setup in our new Flow 19 trailable sport cruiser. I will also add wind data to the network from a wireless sensor from Calypso Instruments.

Glad you liked it!

Thanks for watching! Always fun getting your head around outfitting a small craft for serious cruising. It can be done! Do you have a Varianta 18? Looks like a nice boat. No retractable keel though?

Hi Lief, I just use a bit of marine grade latex sealant.

Sorry, no web site but a lot of details, links to gear used are on our Facebook Siren 17 Owners Group here. facebook.com/groups/1946777085576249 I did spend about 8 or 9k and many, many hours tweaking and optimizing. The boat was very cheap and brand new after spending 33 years asleep in a basement garage so, I felt compelled to treat her well! Thanks for the kind words. Cheers.

Thanks for the note. The mount is a RAM mount with C size ball. They have various arms length and ball bases. 23”x13” hatch from DPI Marine.

@@siren17 Cheers !!!

I glassed two rings to the bottom of the hull and strapped the battery box down. If you don't want to go through the trouble of using a battery box and doing all the wiring, the portable power stations are a great option.

@@siren17 Thank you Thierry! I see the ring now on closer inspection. I will do something likewise.

No need for grounding, low wattage 12V system. Just + and - cables.

@@siren17 Thank you very much, I just got my small Comet 910 Plus and I would like to add your B&G and I have also to change my tiller pilot and I am thinking at the TP32, I don't like the ST-2000 Raymarine. Keep in touch... Rob

@@robynair123 Nice boat from the architect who pretty much designs all Beneteau hulls! I think either model, TP22 or TP32 will work well. The TP32 is way overkill for my 17 footer but I got a great deal of eBay. I think the TP22 is a bit slower to travel but still has plenty of torque for your boat. It works really well networked to the B&G chart plotter. I use Navionics Sonar charts on the plotter, I don't even have a depth sounder on my boat, the charts are very good and depths are highly detailed. Just curious what don't you like on the ST-2000?

@@siren17 Number one is the price, too hight for what you get. Quality wise I prefer the TP32 it is much robust, more powerfull and last but not least waterproof. 2° I never ear any rumors about tech issue after few year or normal utilization ... a different story with ST2000 or St1000 after 2/3 year they have to be repaired or changed completely. Yes Simrad dosen't have the display but who really care about it. I have a question for you could you attach a remote controll via the Vulcan and remotely control the TP32 ?

@@robynair123 There is a wired remote that attaches to the TP tiller pilots but also a wireless remote option that would tie into the Simnet network.

I never made one specific to the Siren 17 but the one from our new boat, the Flow 19 is very similar. Here is the link. drive.google.com/file/d/1ojbAkhnty0qc8X4IK1pqRahlrUtmmmOI/view?usp=drive_link
