Welcome Sderbyshire.
OpenCPN only understands NMEA 0183 so if you want to have AIS in opencpn/openplotter you have to try to feed it with AIS NMEA 0183.
Development of our new model of CAN-USB stick is ready and we are producing now some units to sell. The old model was working right but it was not isolated. If your are using the same power source to feed all the system there is no problem but people were afraid of damage their expensive NMEA 2000 equipment. This new model is optically isolated and protected.
We use canboat software to convert from N2K to signal k but there is not signal k to AIS NMEA 0183 converter.
