This is for my other boat, a 26' Seafarer from 1961. For years , since about 1970, we've had a VDO Sumlog in place, a mechanical speed/distance log device. It's old, the impeller is damaged, and it way under-reads.
I'd like to buy a mechanical or an electronic speed/distance device to replace it, but nobody makes such devices any more. It's all GPS based, which is overkill for this day sailer. A NIB Sumlog would be great, or I could go electronic.
So is there an online vendor of used marine equipment that's trustworthy and that might carry such devices?
Thanks,

Wanted: speed log
google it, you might be surprised at what you find in used. I found an old garmin 440s with a depth finder. this setup gives me depth, speed and location in real time. Other great features as well and cheep! I have it on my Potter 15. I was also able to convert a transom mounted depth finder into a shoot through.
