My OpenCPN setup, using an old chartplotter as display

I made a short video demonstration of my OpenCPN setup:

You can find a write-up of the project with a lot of technical details on:

I hope this is useful to others who are looking to make a similar setup This is my first post here, but I found a lot of very useful information on this Forum while designing my system.
