You likely do not have NMEA 2000 unless there was an upgrade by a PO. Our 2008 was one of the last of the family built and didn't use 2000 as originally delivered. You might want to post a picture of your dash; I'm sure members here will help you figure out what you have. Better yet, pull out the dash (easy to do by after removing the screws on the perimeter) and take some shots of what is back there.Hi guys! I’m thinking about updating some of the electronics onboard and am wondering if we currently have the NMEA 2000 “backbone “ or if I need to update that as well? Any thoughts?
Thanks

We upgraded from the original all-Raymarine to all-Garmin a couple of years ago and most of the needed NMEA 2000 components came with the new chart plotters.
