That's a sailing forum, not programming
, there a a few on there don't help. TCP is the way to go, that's they way signalk is set up. AIS data is too important for UDP. Everyone using signalk (almost) uses TCP. It's there already coming out of signalk, works fine & is reliable. Better to leave opencpn receiving nmea on tcp port 10110. Node red can read from the same port with the settings above. No need to set up a UDP output in signalk. Give it a go, should work fine.
