Replacing E80 GPS with new one

[DonW28]

Soooooo. My boat is angry since we put it on the market and my GPS antenna took an nose dive in some recent high winds and broke the GPS head. I have the old school E80 and need to replace it. Not sure if the Raymarine 150 is compatible or not. I've attached some pictures of the wiring and the current GPS cord. It looks like it was spliced in to me although I have not taken the time to cut off the wrap as yet.


Thoughts and suggestions are appreciated. We don't even use the unit as we navigate with tablets but I want it working at least.


Thanks, Don

If more photos are needed please let me know. White cable coming out of the right side 5 way connector is the GPS. and you can see the splice.

Maybe look on ebay for one like the broken one.

I believe the RS150 is a NMEA 2000 device, so it wouldn't work directly with the E80. You need an RS120 or RS130. Or any cheap GPS puck, all of which communicate with NMEA 0183, which the E80 will accept.
