EP97 - Raspberry Pi 5 and NMEA 2000: Add Wi-Fi to Your Electronics

In this video, we explore in-depth the world of NMEA 2000 networks and its variants such as SeatalkNG and SimNET. You will learn how to connect your boat's equipment, set up your own NMEA 2000 network, make your own cables, and connect everything to a Raspberry Pi 5. Additionally, you will discover how to make old and modern devices "talk" to each other, integrating all the information into your Raspberry Pi to access the data from anywhere.

We will analyze whether it is worth using the Raspberry Pi 5 or the 4, and compare two HAT options: the affordable CAN Bus HAT for less than 12 euros and the MacArthur HAT for 60 euros.

Don't miss this practical tutorial that will help you improve your marine system while saving money!
