The recommendation now is that each product is on its own spur back to the backbone.

Well, might as well use the parts I'd be buying anyway! After reading your advice I looked at the layout a little more and it's easier to eliminate one T, use the ports on the SeaTalkNG to SeaTalk converter and eliminate the daisy chaining:

Should work great, thanks again for your help.
