Getting all the toys to work together?

I have replaced my VHF with the new Ray55, repaired my Ray Pathfinder radar, and am still using the Garmin chart finder. How do I get all these to work together? The 55 needs the GPS, the radar need the gps. Just what is this Sea Talk system?

Just saw this. Did you get your answers? Anyway, Sea Talk is a Raymarine thing. It won't connect up to your Garmin. Not sure what Garmin you have but most likely you need to connect NMEA output from your Garmin to the NMEA input on the Ray55 and the Radar. Then the NMEA signatures that the Ray55 and the radar need will come from the Garmin over the NMEA wires.
