Electronics in the Med......where??
      #1057129 - 25/05/2006 13:06

Anyone got any suggestions as to where would be the best place in the Med to fit an electronics suite. (Raymarine etc.) Radar, plotter etc.
Turkey? No VAT.
Greece??

Thanks Michael. What about a good tech to fit the stuff or are there any dealers in Gib.

Sheppard's are good - although the yard has been developed into flats recently so I am not sure what the situation is.. It is an excellent place to buy the stuff - either mail order or there. There will be talented people - very skilled - either in the liveaboard community or from Sheppard's. Or you could just day sail to Estapona where there are good Spanish guys and the same at Almirima.

thanks again. I will probably be coming from the Ionian and the boat we are looking at is fairly basic in the electronics dept.

when I was last there doing that I got quotes from a couple of mail order UK agencies and then took them into Shepard's who matched them less the freight - but does not matter as couriers take 48 hours 'Yacht in ~Transit' marked on the package.

Sheppards Marina - Gibraltar
Friends of mine have had their boat completley redone and they are very happy.

Sheppards also come up as a Raymarine supplier also. Good.
