Is there a plugin that will allow me to send SK to a serial or USB port (ideally in Actisense format)?

What are you trying to achieve? ”SK in actisense format” does not make sense, as SK is not n2k that actisense format is
I'm trying to send data directly from RPI/SK to ESP32 using a serial link. The ESP32 is the reader. So it doesn't really matter what format as long as it's something I can interpret simply on the ESP32.
I could use SK->N2K plugin, but I don't know whether the destination can be configured (for that or any other plugin).
(Instead of sending on CAN bus, send to serial.)
Do you want all the data or just one or a few items
if just some subset I would probably use Node-RED to create some really simple protocol messages like
path,value\n and output using signalk-send-nmea0183. that node allows configuration of the event name it outputs, so configure it for example toESP. then create a serial connection in SK Server and configure its output event as toESP
or you can install Node-RED serialport module and output directly from Node-REDOK, thank you. I will investigate that.
