I am in the process of building an integrated cockpit computer for a small
boat, to be used for various control and monitoring functions and for
navigational computations.  For my application, I would like to interface
as many sensor inputs to the computer as is practically possible.

I noticed that most LORAN receivers and some depth sounders, even the
most basic (and low-cost) ones, are equipped with a NMEA-0183 Interface
connector.

I wonder if anyone out there has ever used this interface, has the specs,
or knows where to get the hardware and software specs to allow use of
this feature.

Thanks,
