There are many cheaper CAN USB interfaces.
And of course you can use the integrated CAN in the BeagleBone.
You have to add a transceiver and for system security galvanic isolatio=
n.

Because canboat is open source, it should be easy to adopt the SocketCA=
N or=20
can4linux CAN message format. In any case you don't need the J1939 soft=
ware.
Only receiving NMEA frames is easy, decoding the PGNs requires knowledg=

it.
