- Island Gypsy 36' Aft Cabin
Hello all, My wife and I own a 36' Island Gypsy aft cabin that was launched in 1979 and purchased by us in December 2015. We live in Sydney and are using winter to get some work done to get us ready for the summer. The flybridge had the chart plotter, UHF radio and an old depth sounder. The main deck had the auto pilot and the radar. Nothing talked to each other! As a result, we are having it all replaced with new Simrad gear. The main helm will have all the gear. We'll have a local Wi-Fi network that will enable us to drive from the flybridge using a tablet so nothing is left out for the weather or the thieves!
Our aim is to go coastal hopping as we head to retirement.
I'm glad to have found this forum and look forward to sharing with like minded people.
