Watts Up! Marine Services has gone offshore and no longer provides local service. I have left this blog in tact for those that might find the information useful. I still monitor questions but only when internet is available.

NMEA 2000 - Important stuff to know

NMEA 2000, a simple and effective communication for your boat.  One concern with this communication system is...it is on a boat. 

Visualize this, you are on a boat in a shipping channel, that has a NMEA 2000 network controlling the navigation, tankage and even the engine throttle and shifting, the network goes down, you are dead in the water.  Knowing how the NMEA 2000 network is assembled suddenly becomes very important.

Every boat owner that has NMEA 2000 controlling the engine systems or relies on a NMEA 2000 navigation system, should know how the network is assembled and what it would take to troubleshoot a problem.  Taking a few hours to learn this simple system could turn around a very upsetting weekend.  They say that a "little knowledge is dangerous", I say that a whole lot of ignorance can mess your day up!  You don't have to be a "MacGyver" to get the system back up and moving in the right direction.
