I have the Miniplex 42BT, wired essentially as ActiveCaptain does. The Miniplex takes in Seatalk and converts it to NMEA, which is then send out via BT. The MiniplexBT also has a serial output if you can't get the BT in the furthest corners of the boat, but I've never needed to try it. You'd also need a Keyspan for that, though they may have a BT version with USB now - not sure
My setup uses Raymarine for wind/depth/log, a Garmin GPS, SR161 AIS, Macbook with MacENC and GPSNavX. The Miniplex also outputs GPS data to my VHF. I have an older radar right now so that's not wired in.
