June 2004 
Telstar 28Though a predecessor went by the Telstar name in the '80s, the T2 is brand new in every sense. Color Plotter/Sounders: Furuno's GP-1850 WF and Simrad's CE 33 Furuno's upgraded screen tilts the balance against the feature-rich Simrad. Garmin 188C vs. Si-Tex Combo In a two-on-one chartplotter/sounder shootout, a pair of Si-Tex units takes on a single Garmin combo machine. Headings: Navigation, Then and Now Between Marion-Bermuda and Newport-Bermuda events, June 18 will mark Nick Nicholson's 18th race to the Onion Patch, and his 25th year as an offshore navigator. He compares the racing navigator's role and methods in 1979 with those in 2004. Water Repellents for Fabric 303 Fabric Guard outdoes our old favorite, Scotch Gard Heavy Duty, for about the same price. ReviveX is another top performer, but costs a lot per ounce. Non-Skid Compounds and Paints We continue our experiments in finding combinations of paint and non-skid compounds that provide more traction with less abrasion, and longevity without gnarliness. | ||||||||
