Is the Seatalk bus from the Wind and Depth instruments connected to the AP computer?
The "Yellow" sentences indicate data not of that panels' type.
for example...
$IIGLL is a GPS sentence and shows green in the GPS panel but yellow in the Instruments panel.
$IIHDG is an "Instruments" sentence (heading from your fluxgate that is connected to your AP computer) and shows yellow in the GPS panel but green in the instruments panel.
There are no wind or depth sentences present so my guess is that those instruments are not connected to the AP computer which is where you are getting the NMEA feed into the Mac.
