I am going to convert from my old (circa 2008) Smartcraft screen to a new Simrad Go9. What am I going to need parts wise to make this happen and what am I getting into wiring wise? I did the conversion and it's pretty straight forward. Take a look and get a visual of what you want to do in your boat. Are you connecting a NMEA2000 stereo, remotes, displays for passengers in the future? Laying out the NMEA 2000 network backbone so you can add in the future is a good tip to get started. I went from the helm around the cockpit to the co-pilot dash with a break in the engine compartment. That way I can just "T" into the backbone quickly and effortlessly. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.offshoreonly.com-vbulletin/2000x1504/20180513_205732_360560b90dd860184e65dca421b307c0fbd0dc32.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.offshoreonly.com-vbulletin/2000x1504/20180303_104200_d45b51133f8d600cefdbf0653449079f584988f4.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.offshoreonly.com-vbulletin/2000x1504/20180512_100828_adce06c7857a5cfec92ab212e88f5daf2d61b736.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.offshoreonly.com-vbulletin/2000x1504/20180512_103144_d4b83930d8284d5bdaa823f6bcc9ecaea800904f.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.offshoreonly.com-vbulletin/2000x1504/20180512_113314_31722cbc0e38a1e5278cd481ae79333ee227b55a.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.offshoreonly.com-vbulletin/1920x1080/received_10155514588646074_7f5de258751b85ca49ce7fc4cdc9e8d9d4672f60.jpeg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.offshoreonly.com-vbulletin/2000x1504/20180512_155759_f2e58c0f13abec325e9ce0c8f76d8c99cf74d497.jpg

Seems pretty straight forward. I think the only thing that wont read through this setup is the Livorsi fuel gauge/sender. I’m going to look into what it will take to make that work.

maretron tla100 adapter will put the tank level on the nmea network. I have the gateway to program the description in the coding.
