*An AIS is a special piece of Boating Equipment. This device provides information to you about other marine vessels situated in the same waters, that is, if they are also equipped with the equivalent technology.

*An AIS gives you a visual display of other boats, just like the older technology of radar. You get a feel for how close your boat is to other vessels without actually seeing them, and therefore you are more confident to make decisions about navigation. Steer your boat with more confidence. For instance, you enjoy better peace of mind especially when it is dark outside and your eyesight won’t give you the answers you need to make navigational decisions. 

*An AIS helps you to remain alert. You can equip your AIS to provide warning signs of adverse conditions such as thick fog and heavy boat traffic. You need this additional awareness to make decisions in potentially dangerous marine conditions.

When you choose a product, be sure to find a model of the AIS that is easy to mount on your boat. You can also look for a device that is compatible with your radar and chart plotter systems. It is ideal to integrate all electronics devices into a seamless system that maximizes your safety.
