Linking a Garmin GPS to Cobra VHF

[Rivers & creeks]

I inherited a Garmin GPS Map130 (one that takes those now obsolete GChart cartridges). I want to connect it with a new Cobra fixed VHF. Does anyone know which of the cables from the Garmin provide the NMEA out signal and which is the ground wire? I've downloaded the manual from Garmin's site and it says the blue one. But I havn't got a blue wire. Or I've gone colour blind.

Thanks for any help

Check back to the plug...

The Garmin manual says NMEA out is the blue wire, but it also says it's pin 3 on the plug. If you haven't got a blue wire, it'll be a fairly easy job to trace which wire goes to pin 3 of the plug.

Thanks pvb. Does your manual also say which pin is the 'ground' wire. Mine doesn't.

Pin 2 is ground. You can download the full manual, including wiring instructions, from here.
