Furuno GP33

alberto · Feb 9, 2014

I just have acquired this equipment to connect via NMEA 183,

1.- Which is your experience?
2.- Do you need to order the extra cable for this connection or is possible to connect to the free wires of the dc connector?

thanks

Alberto: I recommend you visit furunousaforum.com & post your specific question there, after reviewing the Q's & A's already posted about the GP33.

Alberto I have no experience with this model but a quick search of the Furuno site says:
GP33 comes standard with NMEA2000 Cable. Part # 000-156-405 - NMEA0183 Cable - is required option for NMEA0183 data connection.

Hope this helps, I have two Furuno GP32 and they have been wonderful.

Thanks guys,
difficult to understand why this cable does not come with the equipment

Because NMEA 0183 is old technology, and the GP-33 was mainly made for Nmea 2000. Although it's smaller brother the GP-32 only supported 0183.
