Northstar F210 Fuel Flow Computer
http://www.boatersland.com/f210.html
This looks like it might be the same as the Navman 2100 Fuel Flow meter. Any ideas the price is pretty good?

I have found somewhere much cheaper that ships for $35 which is far more realistic.

I feel the need to know how fast Bliar's emptying my wallet when I get a new boat...

Try asking them to ship via USPS ..... I find them much more reasonable

Just thought though-can you recalibrate them to show UK GPH rather than US gallons?
I don't like litres. The numbers are too big and scary

Thanks Chris.
Have you seen the prices of the rest of the gear on their site??! I think I'll be doing some shopping there...

On my Navman 3100 you can.
It will also display volts which is handy to see if you are charging the battery. Best feature on the 3100 is the huge display of the speed - much easier to read when you are boucning around!!!

Update on Norstar
Got the unit earlier than expected, straight forward to fit, instructions all good. Used it today on the way over to Ribex for the first time and was really happy with it. It said I used 25.1 litres getting there and back, then on the way home I topped off the tank and need 24.1 litres to fill up again so calibrated the unit accordingly.
Straight out the box for $150 (shipped to the UK) this is a great item and well worth fitting.
It also got soaked today and showed no sign of leakage.
Chris

Mine was great for the first few soakings - now it packs up at the first sign of damp!!!

Cool. I'm just waiting for the same guys to send me back a shipping price for some of these speakers and I'll see if I can get the fuel computer sent over at the same time.
Is there any easy way you can seal them? Any obvious joins or the like that a small bead of sealant might help with?
