Derek,

Thank you, understood about option 3.

However,

With regards to the three instruments. They are in a pod over the companionway and I already ran a white spur cable to them. Access was very difficult and I had to cut off all the terminals from the 3 transducers, perform a very difficult snake, and re attach new terminals. Id rather not have to go thru this again.
If I did, I guess I would also need a backbone going in and going out of the pod, otherwise I would have three backbone end points, which I’m not sure if that’s allowed.

What are the ramifications of not complying with NMEA 2000, and also, what sort of data errors could I expect ?
