10.0 ELECTRONICS
10.1
General
Many owners add electronic equipment such as knotmeters, distance logs, depth sounders, (all of which
usually require thru hull fittings) and relative wind indicators, wind speed indicators, radio direction
finders, VHF, SSB radios as well as various types of electronic navigation aids such GPS and Loran.
Many of these items may be installed while the yacht is being built or later by the Tartan Dealer.
10.2
Thru Hull Fittings
If other than standard thru hull fittings are required and are to be added after the yacht is built, consult the
Tartan Dealer to determine the correct positioning of the thru hull fitting. Directions concerning the
components and installation of the thru hull fittings should be supplied with the unit. See section 8.1,
"Installation of Thru Hull Fittings".
10.3
Masthead Fittings
Masthead fittings should be installed carefully, following manufacturer's recommendations. Cables
leading from the masthead fitting should come out at the foot of the mast, and a connector installed at this
point which facilitates easy disconnecting when the mast is un-stepped. Keep all connectors, junctions
and wiring as high in the yacht as possible to prevent them from coming in contact with water.
10.4
Electronic Equipment
All electronic equipment serviced by the yacht's 12 volt electric circuit should be separately protected by
a circuit breaker or fuse. Radios and other DC accessories can be wired directly to the yacht's circuit
panel. Make sure that the polarity for electronic accessories are correct, and that they are installed
according to the manufacturer's recommendation.
