Digital Yacht DIGSTN Data Converter for any Legacy Autohelm or Raymarine System
Model: DIGSTNThe SeaTalk™ interface, originally developed by Autohelm in the early 1990’s, was included on pretty much all Autohelm and Rarmarine (and some Raytheon) products up until about 2012. As a result there are thousands and thousands of boats around the world that have a SeaTalk 1 network and many owners, for one reason or another, need to convert from SeaTalk to NMEA0183.
Raymarine’s own SeaTalk to NMEA converter (E85001) is no longer available, and although some instruments/MFDs/autopilots have NMEA0183 interfaces, they do not always convert all of the data or are located in a difficult to wire to location.
Digital Yacht’s SeaTalk to NMEA (ISO) Converter is a small but powerful interface that provides bi-directional conversion between a SeaTalk network and an NMEA0183 network or device. Taking its power from the SeaTalk network, the ST-NMEA Converter features a full, multi-transistor SeaTalk 1 interface, an opto-isolated NMEA0183 input and differential NMEA0183 output that allows key navigational data to be reliably shared between the SeaTalk and NMEA0183 networks.
For developers and advanced users that want to access the raw SeaTalk data, the ST-NMEA converter can also be configured to work in a special "Raw Data" mode ($STALK) which is gaining support in some Open Source projects.
The ST-NMEA (ISO) Converter is ideal for connection to one of Digital Yacht’s wireless NMEA servers, allowing SeaTalk owners to go wireless and a USB Version of the ST-NMEA Converter is also available for direct connection to a PC or Mac.
Where do I start! This man is a genius, I may have ordered a amateurs dream from this man, went all out on garmin products from gpsmap screens to the live scope lv34 and to juice them up I went with all powerhouse batteries and charging units! Well now on the boat I’m staring at this out dated minnkota and it just looked out of place so I went ahead and ordered up the KRAKEN! I can’t stop bragging on how much you have helped me, even face timing me on the water to fine tune my Livescope, there is no big box store that could even come close to offer this level of customer service! You will forever be my go to company! Thank you again!

Very fast shipping. Very knowledgeable guy to deal with. I inquired after hours and Chad responded quickly and chatted with me for way longer than necessary because I knew nothing about livescope. Who offers there cell phone number to call with any install questions??? Chad does. I got a friend request from him and accepted. Felt like I bought from someone who values my purchase as well as my friendship. We may never meet but I feel like I have gained a great friend. Thanks Chad for all your time spent explaining what I wanted and giving me choices. This won't be my last purchase..

It has been a pleasure dealing with Chad at Chaddy Boys! I had contacted him many times on the phone and has been very helpful! I felt like we had been old friends for a long period of time! Chad sent me many quotes and was very helpful on choosing the electronics setup I was seeking! I ordered my unit and received it on exact date I was quoted! I will definitely be buying from Chaddy Boys again!

This 16 volt battery and Run and Gun Charger is the only way to outfit your boat. Fish all day with no worries. Chad is very knowledgeable and helpful with the everything you need for a great day on the water. Now just waiting for a 36 volt to have the perfect setup. Thanks Chad.
Update* Well we just installed the second battery and run and gun charger. Took out 3 lead acid and about 120 lbs. Looking forward to the new system. Gonna be awesome. Thanks again Chad

We offer on the water Face-Time calls for product install, setup & graph tuning for side-Imaging, down-imaging & livescope! I took this side scan image 4 years ago.
