Hello guys,

I wanted to understand something and this forum seems to be the best place to ask.

I own a SeaRay 210 Sundancer 2014. The transducer is a rebranded Airmar DT800 named Smart IDT-N2000 with a seatalk connector.

I was wondering if there is some way to plug it in a NMEA2K backbone ?

I understand that the best way would be to change the transducer itself for a DT800 but if I can avoid to pull the boat out of the water it would be nice.

I have searched around on the web but all I am able to see is this cable :

In the dash, all I am able to see is a connector with female on the Seatalk side, which means, I need a Seatalk Male on one side and Male on NMEA2K side.

I am asking because I guess I am not the first one to try to plug a Seatalk transducer on a NMEA2K backbone.

Thanks.
