Raymarine Service Jan 2015

Recently the trackpad on our Raymarine E120W chart plotter fell apart. We suspect that it didn't really like continuous exposure to temperatures in the high 30s and high humidity.

Mick at Octopus Electrical in Boat Lagoon, Phuket is the local Raymarine agent. However, he told us that despite having several failures on local charter boats he was having difficulty getting replacements.

We contacted Raymarine in the UK who couriered two replacements to us free of charge. These were collected from the Royal Langkawi Yacht Club in Kuah. Fixing it was a 5 minute job.

This was somewhat of a relief as we were not sure how much longer the temporary fix with contact adhesive was going to last.
