Zero Off - Single Puck on 5.7 or 6.0L?

[Kelvin]

I've got a SN 200 5.7L with a potentially bad Garmin puck. Looking at the zero off website for replacement parts, I can either purchase a Garmin puck for $450 or a new single antenna puck for $450. Of course, buying the new puck would require an upgrade to the head unit firmware. Has anyone retrofitted an older 5.7 or 6L Nautique 200 with the single puck system. I'm a little hesitant to go either direction with the Garmin puck issues I've read about and also the differences in the pull with the new single puck systems.

 

Thanks

@Kelvin I have a good (pre-hardware/software change) ZO puck that I would sell you. The double sided mounting tape is unused. I had two spares that I carried with me to tournaments, used for a couple weeks laying on the dash last year until they sent me good parts for my '15 promo. I bought a new single puck for a spare this year since my boats no longer use the dual pucks. PM me if interested.

@Kelvin, have you checked with PP. I've heard that they sell pucks that are compatible with ZO dual puck systems. Don't know that for sure. Maybe someone can confirm that.

Swapped the puck connections tonight and that seemed to work for now. Will continue to monitor the situation. Thanks for all the comments.

Kelvin,

 

I saw your post along with some others on here and ZO has made a change for their Garmin Puck pricing in response. The new price is $250 and you can order them right off the website. I have attached the link to help, please let me know if you have any questions. I don't monitor this site as often as I should, so if you need me quickly just email me at ntmare230@gmail.com

@scoke has done his 5.7.

If you ski in tournaments a lot, I would not hesitate to go to single pick system. It's a different pull and it would better replicate what you will feel under pressure at a tournament. You already need to spend some money fixing the old one.
