Advice we were given a long time ago by a long-time boater and shipwright was "Never replace anything on a boat unless it's broken or doesn't do what you need it to do anymore."
We've found it to be a very sensible and cost-effective policy. Better, in our minds, to put several hundred dollars worth of fuel in the boat and then use it than put the same amount of money into a new radio just to get some new bells and whistles when the old radio does everything we need it to do just fine.
