In regard to Bimini 2017, I was set up withĪfter the worse of the storm ( squil I think is more appropriate description), I had to get on the front of the group. I think the non electronic back ups are best. We use our phones at our local lake and never had issue with them, but again they are are not running maxout screen brightness in the Bermuda triangle. Once I get the time I will be installing a Simrad Go7 as the primary to avoid half of that backup foolishness. Add to that my vhf radios with pre programmed waypoints and lastly a map, compass, protractor, and waterproof pen in the ditch box. Also have a waterproof bag/case that you can drop the devices in for the cooler if they get too hot.įor my Bimini trip my sons iPhone 7 plus will be the primary navigation device with my phone as the primary back up along with 4 other iPhones on board.
ITAB HIBERNATE HOW TO
To wrap up my opinion is if going to use a portable device make sure you have a backup that is at the ready and you know how to use it.
Lastly I am no stranger to a map, compass, and protractor. I also have fixed and handheld vhf radios with gps that way points can be entered in and then a radar type screen to be able to follow to those points. I had a backup phone kept out of the sun on board as well if needed. I tossed it in a plastic bag and submerged it in my cooler. The iPhone did over heat in just minutes when I took it out of the holder while getting fuel and left it face up on the dash. The iPhone never overheated while in the mount and plugged while moving. iPhone mounted to a ram mount just above the tachs and in a case.
