    I am refitting a trawler for a world wide cruise. I know these subjects have been discussed but the electronics seem to change every couple on months.

    None of the existing systems are usage (except for the compass). I was inclined to go with a Garmin system due to all the system integration. But I want a charting system capable of handling the world. And, I'd like a planning/routing system that considers weather, tides, waves (like expedition, time zero, predictwind). But, I'd love to have the routing system directly tied into the autopilot. And, I'd like a system where you can compare raster and vector charts.

    What is the best system able to offer the best charts and pull in AIS and radar data. I would also like satellite photo supports and POI support and sonar support.

    What is the best system for an expedition yacht with world wide plans?
