I don't see gear to replace that with OPENCPN - water resistance, readability, control knobs et cetera are not yet op to proprietary stuff yet. Inside, yes, I use OPENCPN and I do think it is better.
There is an opencpn plugin that connects directly to pypilot you might consider instead of proprietary mfd
So something to x-late up to and fro would be great. Means I can control PyPilot from the wheel with the SIMRAD mfd. I am no coder so it is all gobbledygook to me. Would be a nice add-on though ...
I have a SHIPMODUL to x-late 0183 to N2K and back, ST too.
