Vesselview smart craft 1.5 to NMEA2000

[jmauld]

What’s the best way to get the data from my 8.1L engines onto my nmea2000 network? Would be nice if I could also get the GPS data to the smartcraft since it seems to have disappeared during my e120 -> axiom upgrade.

Do I just need one of these? https://www.mercruiserparts.com/mercury-mercruiser-8m0165589-gateway-can

Yes for the gateway. I bought mine off eBay for about $250 I think last year.

The smart craft receives gps data from NMEA 0183 that was output from the original Raymarine. Does the Axiom have that capability?

Make sure you get the correct one for your engines
