How do others get nmea0183 data into a raspberry pi? 

I have too many usb/serial connections and need more.........

this chip looks interesting, 4 serial lines it says and low power, the system is on 24/7 on the boat so every mA counts...

Available from JLCPCB. The extra data I want isn't really time sensitive, victron solar controllers/smartshunts so reading from one device at a time isn't a problem. 

Tempting to get some boards  made by jlcpcb using those chips but any experience of either those chips or another low power way to get multiple serial into a Pi would be very interesting, ta.  Cool

Have you looked int the marine control server? I believe it has up to 6 0183 inputs or outputs

Very interesting. And useful, thanks.
