I’m about to upgrade the original C80 on our 2008 340 to a Garmin 943. The C80 has both seatalk and NMEA connections being used. Does anyone know how Sea Ray typically setup the transfer of data? I’m sort of assuming the seatalk is at least the arch top GPS antenna and possibly the original Northstar VHF. Our setup has what appears to be Vessel view 1.5 and depth/temp comes through the smartcraft. The Raymarine also displays depth so I’m assuming that at least is coming through NMEA(0183?). I’m building a NMEA 2000 network and was recommended to install a 0183 to 2000 converter but I’m having problems chasing that wire through all the bundles in the helm.
Any help or ideas would be really appreciated.
