The deep keel
I found a new boat for sale, but I don't think I can afford it.
And it would probably not be able to reach the small beatiful bays I
use to visit because of its deep keel.

Coolterm for Mac and debug via USB
I am getting used to debugging true the old printf method.
I am using the Coolterm for Mac wich turned out to be a real good tool especially
since it can show my AIVDM strings in hex.
Getting closer
After some new AIS strings I managed to get a ship into the Garmin display.
The Garmin plotter seems to timeout rather quickly after some 2 seconds.
Next I plan to capture one of the strings coming from the plotter to get the longitude and latitude and resend it back as an AIS close to my boat.

Ais to Garmin
After a few attempts I managed to get the Garmin to accept my Ais messages.
I have not decided where to put the measurement info or if I should use another kind of message. There are quite a lot of them.
