I was told that I would have to do a conversion which means a new style “brain” and all new controls.
7 hrs labor. Basically saying a couple grand for what was a?$400-$500 dollar part
Seems like someone would have one or a better alternative. IDK

sounds to me like they're trying to charge you 7 hours of labor to re-pin a connector on the boat-side wiring
