Sailtab Retrofit
Sailtab without ripping out the old system.
Retrofit: upgrading your existing system with Sailtab without ripping it out. Your B&G, Raymarine, Tacktick, NMEA 0183 or NMEA 2000 setup stays; Sailtab's processor, display and Communicator are added to it. Communicator reads the data from your old system, and the calculations and the display move to Sailtab.
How it works
Old sensors, new processor and display.
Every system speaks a different protocol. Communicator translates that data into a format Sailtab can read. No sensors are removed; the boat's existing infrastructure is kept.

Compatibility form
Let's see your boat's current system.
Your name, a way to reach you and a short message are enough; add your system details in the second step if you like. We'll work out the right retrofit path from the brand, model and protocol.
Assessment
Systems we assess
No two boats are the same. Compatibility is assessed by model and protocol.
B&G H3000 / H5000
Sensor base stays in place. Data flows to Sailtab over FastNet or the existing data output.
Tacktick T112 / T120 / T122 / Micronet
Data on the Micronet network comes into the system through Communicator.
Raymarine ST60+ / ST6000+ / SeaTalk1
SeaTalk1 data is brought into Communicator. Sensors stay; the screen is modernized.
Garmin
Connects to Sailtab over NMEA 2000 or the existing data output.
NKE
NKE bus data is bridged into the Sailtab system.
Legacy NMEA 0183 systems
Communicator reads NMEA 0183 data and brings it onto the Sailtab screen.
NMEA 2000 systems
Installation is faster on modern boats. Data goes straight into the Sailtab system.
Simrad, legacy Furuno and custom systems
Reviewed via the form. Most legacy systems have a viable adaptation path.
