Suggest taking a piece of the material you plan on using for the window and putting it over the panel to see the effect. There are many different kinds of plastic and their effect on light transmission can vary. A practical test is the best way to go methinks. Rich > On Jul 16, 2014, at 0:47,

I like the boat on land to tighten the keel bolts/nuts. You are using the force, gravity to help compress boat and keel together that way. In the water, the keel weight is hanging on the bolts and gravity is working against you. The builder put the keel on, on land. Chuck Resolute 1990 C&C

Jean-Francois — just to expand on this, pretty much any older transducer (and many of the new ones) do NOT directly output NMEA0183 or NMEA2000 data; most of the depth, speed and wind transducers need to be connected to a display head which will then convert the signals into NMEA0183, NMEA2000 o

Hi Mike, The easiest thing would be to find out the nature of the signal is out of the computers / transducers. If it's NMEA 0183 compatible then you just get a NMEA 0183 to NMEA 2000 converter (A Google search will easily get that) If not find out if there is a way to get the signal converted
