My boat have Stowe Navigater and 250 Navsounder, the 250 Navsounder some of the function doesn't work (shollow and anchor watch) I planed to upgrade the log and deep instrument and install new wind instrument at the same time. I don't like open another hole in the bulkhead I would like Nasa multi display or Horizon. My question is the new transduers fit the old housing or can I use the Stowe transders and use the Nasa Multi display to make the job simple? Thank you.

No real chance with the Stowe Navigator - that older paddlewheeel wont work with most systems now - I know i'm changing from a Stowe system too -you are better to move to a system that uses standard paddlewheels ( such as Airmar).
The sounder is a possibility. Firstly you need to verify the frequency it operates at probably either 50hz or 200hz, and then find a compatible system. Secondly check how the sounder wire is terminated - its a lot easier if the fitting is the same -if not you need to change the end plug which if you do it wrong will give interference to other instruments.
Good luck

Sorry dont quite follow your question and its relevance to a recommendation for the Silva dataset of instruments.
