im far from an expert, however here is the starting point.
signalk uses canboatjs for receiving the n2k messages , which is based on “canboat project”.
there is more details below, and a link to a list of the known/supported PGNs that canboat/canboatjs knows about.
if its not in the list, then signalk will not “decode” it; and hence it will not populate a path/s.

@gregy I just learned from Scott that canboatjs is able to handle it already. The missing implementation is in n2k-signalk.

For others struggeling with the same issue and don't want to wait till the n2k-signalk team has implemented this PGN here a workaround:
1 Install this plugin: https://www.npmjs.com/package/signalk-generic-pgn-parser (via App-Store)
2 Restart Server
3 Configure Plugin (see pic)
4. Restart Server
PGNs show up in Data Browser - look for "watermaker" in the search.
