1. Is it possible to package such a solib in the non-free section?
Is it actually redistributable?
2. opencpn would have a weak Suggests: or Recommends: on this package. Would it mean it has to move to contrib?
Suggests, no. Recommends, yes. See policy 2.2.1.
3. If it is possible to package in non-free, how is this done? I don't find much on this topic googling around
You set "Section: non-free/misc" in debian/control. See policy 2.4.
Since there is no source then you will also need to set an appropriate
value for the Architecture field.
