Nasa AIS Radar - All ships over 300 tons & all passenger carrying vessels have to carry the Automatic Identification System (AIS), a VHF transponder system sending data identifying the ship, its name, position, speed, course and heading and MMSI number.
The Nasa AIS radar receives the transmissions from AIS transponders and displays the information on a radar like display. Linked to your boat's GPS, it puts your boat in the centre of the screen allowing you to see instantly a vessels relative position and bearing to yourself.
Simple to install, it requires a 12V supply, GPS input, and connection to a dedicated VHF aerial. This may require an adaptor (see product code: 230060)
