Thanks Bob S. The redundancy is what I was thinking but wasn't sure. I've got separate Garmin GPS and FF on the boat and knew that they could be tied together but just wasn't sure as to the advantage. I do have the NMEA wires from the GPS linked to the VHF. Maybe I'll try the FF link this year as well. Just something else to play with. The way it works now, when I'm over structure or whatever; just hit MOB and rename it afterwards and save. I especially like not having a combo unit that many people opt for but I can understand it if space comes at a premium. I just like having the two full screens.
Thanks again
