We are also installing a EV-100 on our 35-3. I have put the p70s on our pedestal in a old gauge pod, along with a new B&g wind triton 2 display in a separate pod (I will be adding a new blog entry when I get done with this whole endeavor). The ACU-100 is in the small cubby under the nav seat, in front of the diesel tank. The EV-1 I mounted all the way forward under the v-berth seat because that was the only place where I could meet their criteria, on a surface that I only had to worry about roll and not heel as well, that was out of site and easy to get to the backbone.
I will say I have a love / hate with Raymarine. I appreciate the design choices they made with seatalk ng (we have both ng and n2k) but hate some of the other choices they make. The wheel drive is the same one that was on our st4000+ that we are replacing. That means I now have a spare wheel drive, but then that means they provided the cable with the drive that has 18 gauge wires on it, and connectors that have nothing to do with the ACU-100. Meanwhile the manual says the cable shouldn't be LESS than 14 gauge wire, and in our case 12 gauge. So yeah.... But having had the old ST4000+ which powered the drive from the head unit, it made sense, so what we have here is legacy happening, but they just throw the legacy parts in there and hope you figure it all out. Love that Seatalk NG makes sure you use heavier wires in the backbone vs. the spur cables, and the smaller end connectors, but there are no field seatalk connectors. Which means install headache and lots and lots of extra cable, since in their wisdom you can buy 400mm, 1m, or 3m, what happened the the 2m? That is the length I typically need.
OK, rant over. Hope your system is going together great!
