Observations and insights from boating world and ashore

Updated 2021-12-14 A newer post in the same subject !! Sometimes You want to "take home" Your latest trip on sea and "replay" it or replay it doing some changes in the settings for the OpenPlotter or OpenCPN applikation and se the result direct. One way is to create log files with the the "raw" NMEA data and then use them at home with tips from this  post . Creating log files from NMEA 2000 bus , N2K, is the most straightforward.

Updated 2018-06-26! If You started with my quick instal guide You are a little familiar with OpenPlotter, (OP), basics and now we proceed with the sensors. Don't forget to delete the RMC sentence from the  "NMEA 0183 generator" which we used. Link to a stand alone AIS  receiver. Not valid for OP Beta V2 !!   Check here !
