Despite a small packing error, which was quickly resolved, I received everything safely. I would like to sincerely thank the person I dealt with, who was extremely responsive, helpful and pleasant throughout. I highly recommend them!.

My Nmea suddenly went out. I started testing and replacing components one at a time.  After a lot of time, money, and frustration, still no luck. So I called Golden Channels and spoke to Eric, The Wizard of Nmea. He walked me through a few more tests with still no luck. Eric was kind enough to send me a demo Capn NMEA KISS diagnostic tool. Plugged in the tool and it immediately showed me the problem was at the motor.  Turned out to be the ECU on my 2023 Tohatsu was bad.  Tohatsu replaced the ECU and all is great. Without Eric and the Capn NMEA, I would still be chasing the problem.  Thank you Eric and Capn NMEA !
I also purchased a Capn NMEA. Now I keep the tool, and The Wizard phone number, on my boat for any possible future problems.
Golden Channels and Eric are #1 !

My experience shopping with them was unbeatable. The after-sales support was so good that they even fixed an issue that wasn't directly related to the product I was sold. I encourage you to work with them, and I will also recommend this place to my friends.
