Do i really need AIS for West Of Scotland , I really dont need to see myself and I am a pretty good look out , and Do I really need Radar , hopefully will not sail on Mist.
All are good devices , not arguing with that but do I need them for my trip ?
I have an old Furuno 821 on board but will need some love to re boot it do I just dso that and spend my money on Whisky and Gin

Many thanks
Oh and last thing is the crinan worth it now , I have been through a few times but will be taking the wife and daughter first time , potentially some crew (no expericence but generally youngish) or do I just get a pilot and get Quandrey

Much thanks again
