Not starting an N2K vs. NMEA 0183 debate here but 0183 provides a lot of
capabilities, much more than my minimalist handheld GPS and VHF 10-year-old
setup
When I decided to get some electronics recently, I started with a high-end
VHF with built-in GPS and AIS. (S-H VX2200, $260 USD after $40

Steve,
I have a Raymarine Seatalk - NMEA converter, about 3 years old but never
installed. As Fred says, it’s only 4800 baud, and only does the “normal” NMEA
sentences, but it does work in both directions. You can have it for $100 US
plus shipping if that would be useful. Contact me off-list
Plus the numbers on the ST40 displays are WAY larger than the little databases
on the MFD...

That Raymarine converter is pretty limited in the data it can convert; and it
will only do 4800 baud, so if Steve ever wanted to add AIS, he’s need to throw
that away and start over. And if there’s a reasonably-priced way to get to
NMEA2000 (which I’ve suggested to Steve already), I’d

Joel makes good points.

Hey standard horizon will not control the autopilot. Also, he will not be
able to program the depth offset if you have a generic transducer.

Hi All,
Kind of a piggyback to Bob's thread. I had never really considered the CPN
700i prior to checking it out today. I'm waiting on pricing from a local
chandlery on a list of Raymarine stuff I'll need to buy in order to get an
ES75 working on my boat with my autopilot.
Maybe some of you can
