I'm doing a total boat Restoration/upgrade. The boat will be used in the Chesapeake bay area for fishing ( when its done) My plan is to install a Furuno 24mi Radar, a hummingbird fish finder/ chart plotter. marine radio and CD player. I want to add another fish finder,( just because) would that be considered electronics overkill for twin IO 25ft boat with a hard top?

You can never have enough electronics so long as you remember to bring the manual essentials as well such as charts, flares, first aid kit, extra line, oar, anchor etc.

Little snow and slush left on streets. We got a foot+ 46 degrees tomorrow should take care of that.
