I bought a 2002 Skeeter last month and it has an old Telerite depth gauge of some sort, with this plug attached to it. The wire runs all the way to the bilge area near the stern, and is mounted at the bottom of the boat.
My question is, what is this plug type, and can I connect it to my NMEA 2000 network with some sort of adapter. I'd really like to make use of the sensor/transducer/etc mounted to the bilge, especially if it is a water temperature sensor.
That plug looks similar to some of the transducer or accessory plugs on my Humminbird 1199s and are the same as what's on the Helixes.

Well, I have all Lowrance equipment on my boat. HDS Live, Active Target, etc., but I do have a NMEA 2000 network. Do you know of any adapter or device that can port that cable over to NMEA or Lowrance? I'd really like to use it for water temp.
Honestly, I'm not sure of any adapters that will convert Humminbird (if that's what this transducer is) other than the US2 and DCS cables on Minn Kotas that allow you to use those transducers on Garmin, Lowrance, and HB.
