Getting the data in from n2k will not disturb the rest of the system.

You can easily write the data to InfluxDb and present the data you want as graphs  and as track on a map eith Grafana.

There is no comprehensive solution for the non numeric stuff though. Maybe some OpenCpn logbook olugin would fit the bill.

Setting this up takes more time than money and you are the only person who can evaluate if it does what you are after, so give it a try!

yep, ordered the parts. we'll fiddle.

also might try adding an SDR dongle and see about recording 1 or more marine freqs.

thanks for the influxdb tip, ill check it out!
