Description
The V60-B includes a Class B AIS transmitter and receiver, which not only receives AIS targets but also transmits your yacht's position to nearby AIS-equipped vessels. This helps other mariners to spot your boat through any conditions, day or night. A built-in AIS receiver monitors the position of other AIS-equipped vessels, helping you to proactively avoid collisions in crowded harbors and waterways. AIS information can be viewed on the radio's built-in screen or overlaid on your chart or radar screen through a compatible chartplotter.
