Autopilot and radar install

[Rehack]

My 2020 R23OB was purchased new last year in Pensacola at Edgewater Yachts (badly hit by hurricane after that, sadly). I live in the Atlanta area and have the boat in storage but plan to spend a couple of months in the Keys based in the Marathon area. My questions: can you recommend anywhere in the greater Atlanta area for radar and autopilot install? How about in the Keys? How long might such an install take, generally? Thanks.

Boat mechanics are in short supply and high demand in the Keys. You should get the work done before you get there.

I have used Marine Max at Baldridge Marina on Lake Lanier. Contact Drew Mead. They have a large maintenance facility and service a wide range of boats. Another option: I needed some parts for my NMEA 2000 network, Marine Max referred me AVC Marine Electronic in Buford Ga.

Update your post if decide to use someone in GA. I am considering an Auto Pilot install later this summer.

Hartyparty, that’s excellent advice.

DMC3, thanks for the local info. I am familiar with Marine Max/Bald Ridge (bought a runabout there several years ago to use on Hartwell). I’ll follow up with them. I was hoping a Ranger Factory rep might have some input here, too, but I suppose Ranger dealers might be the better source of recommendations than the factory.
