NMEA 2000 wind sensors/transducers?

Hi all,

I'm bringing my mast down for a refit soon and I'd like to install a wind sensor while its horizontal. I have a Raymarine Axiom MFD and I can't see any real justification in having a dedicated display unit (Raymarine i60 display etc) when I could just use the MFD to display wind information instead.

Looking around, it doesn't seem obvious that there are really any dedicated NMEA2000 transducers which I can just plug into my backbone cable? It appears as though they get onto the NMEA network via the displays (i60 display etc), making it kind of a redundant.

Any recommendations?

Cheers!
