Vesselview Link?

[OldToad]

I am trying to figure out what is the best way to get my Mercury Verado 300 to talk to my Lowrance. I currently have the digital gauges SC1000 and SC1100 (I believe that is what they are)

I see there is a Vesselview Link, but I also see there are Gateway sticks? I also do not understand what is meant by level 1,2 etc.

I would like to view everything that I can on the SC gauges without having to toggle the button so many times. I think I can do that on the Lowrance. Just not sure how to get there.

Is there a link that explains the differences and what is available today? Some of the articles I have read are a few years old.

You will need a smartcraft gauge that has nema 2000 networking capability to link.

If I understand the Vesselview Link correctly, dosent that convert the SC1000 Smartcraft data to NMEA 200o language?

Yes, but I saw European said that was the least desirable option. No much good info on web on smartcraft best call European he is the man on this!

Why would that be the least desirable option?

You have confused the old "gateway stick" with the Vessel View Link. Two different devices.
