Is it possible to get the antenna in black instead of white? I have a black boat. How big is the antenna? I have seen the ones that first came out. Someone told me that the size and shape has changed. I saw on Motor Trend TV this morning an Audi and theirs was on the trunk lid and it was more like a cig. pack size.
Can the antenna be mounted under the dash?
I guess your price includes everything you need when you don't have a GPS @ $370.90?
Last ? I promise. Can I have a red bulb in the speedo for night viewing?

Mike,
I got the receiver with my GPS and it is black. It is the same shape as a computer mouse and slightly smaller in size. I mounted mine under the side deck of the boat. It worked on Uncle Toys boat so hopefully I will have the same results. I sure wouldn't want to mount it where it will be visible on top of the deck somewhere. I finally got the drive painted up and put back on the boat this past weekend. I just need to fill it with gear lube and it will be time to try it out. Hopefully the weather is decent this weekend.:cool:

black in color is good to know if I would have to mount it outside.

Mike,
Yes, the reciever (antenna) is available in black. The reciever is also paintable to match almost any hull color.
The reciever is the size of a computer mouse. It can be mounted under the dash in most cases. It cannot be mounted under the dash however if there is any carbon fiber in the hull, the deck is very thick, or there is allot of superstructure or glass above it.
The $370.95 includes everything needed to mount a GPS seedo ( head unit and reciever).
You will also usually gain a couple of MPH in your boat due to the removal of the pitot tube.

Thanks
Looks like I will be ordering one also :)

Wonder if they are willing to offer up a group discount??
That would really get some sells going :)

I also have the Nordskog 120 MPH GPS speedo, but I went for the analog display.

I also have a Garmin GPS map 295 color moving map with a digital readout and they both read within a half mile of each other.

I also mounted the antenna under the fiberglass and it works fine.

I am very happy with the quality & support at Nordskog. I just placed an order to replace all my gauges to the 2 5/8" Titan series.
