    GPS / plotter Donzi 22 classic

    I am looking to install a GPS/Plotter on my Donzi 22 Classic.
    Interested in hearing if someone mounted a garmin GPS under the windshield, what size can you fit in, 7"/8"/9"?
    Model + pictures would be greatly appreciated!

    My boat has an aluminum fairing from the factory so no chart plotter will fit completely under it but here is my set-up. I also mounted my handheld VHF on the dash in it's charging mount and made a clip so it cannot fly out. I boat on the Great Lakes and often out of sight of land.

    It's the factory wheel that it came with (40th Anniversary Ed.)

    I knew I had seen the wheel for sale before. In case you want one, a quick google for yellow marine steering wheels brought up this:

    https://www.amazon.com/Spargi-Steeri.../dp/B002IV8NPI

    EDIT:
    Eddie Marine has them on for only $124. Not going to beat that price.

    It's not 100% exactly the same as mine, but 98%.

    Wheel on order from Eddie. Thought they’d have yellow gauge bezels also but had to order those from CP performance.

    Glad I could help.
    Told you I was excited to spend your money.

    Now that you know I'm also thrifty, just send me your list and credit card number. Chip and I will take care of the rest.

    I need a 3 spoke yellow steering wheel that doesn't have a center position since they don't stay centered with hydraulic steering.

    Absolutely! I could use a GPS speedo! That'd make a nice Christmas present.

    Is that the factory speedometer? Why does it only go up to 80?

    It's the original speedo. I don't want to change it because I'd have to get one custom made to match, or change all the gauges.
    Extremely, extremely, rare I ever go past 80 anyways

    What's the quality like on that wheel, Pat. Looks good. Especially for the price

    I bought the same wheel in red over 5 years ago. Mine still looks great!
