The newest standard for marine interface is NMEA 2000. When new gear comes

I'm looking at new electronics, do I wait?

NMEA-2000 isn't new - it was introduced in 2000 (hence the name). It
is not compatible with NMEA-0183, as 2000 uses CAN-Bus which is a
bidirectional multi-point bus (vaguely similar in operation to
SeaTalk, but incompatible with that, too).

There is apparently a considerable licence fee to use NMEA-2000, so
you may see manufacturers going to their own proprietary busses,
rather than using NMEA-2000.
