hi

jeff cote here with pacific yacht

systems and roton industries

what we're going to talk about next is

ais transponders and receivers

ais stands for automatic identification

system and it's a

way for boats to communicate with one

another and also land

about not only their vessels position

their name their course on ground

speed our ground all useful information

for collision avoidance but also for

actually calling one another out

knowing what their call sign is so ais

is taking a sort of a

there's a huge amount of momentum these

days about adoption

not only in ais receivers which are

really popular in all of vhf radios

where you can have a vhf radio with an

is receiver and you can see the targets

right on the radio and you can share

that with your chart plotter

or mfd multiple function display so you

can actually see other boats and their

targets

actually directly on a chart plotter

this is not radar

this is actually all transmitted over

vhf frequencies or a subset of vhf

frequencies

one of the products that we've been

using a lot because it's just such an

affordable and good quality price point

is this amtrak ais transponder

and they also have their own splitters

so now this doesn't have all the bells

and whistles of other ais

but the big thing about them is it's

very compact look at this look how small

this unit is

right so for some boaters you know

installing a larger

ais transponder is a challenge this is

actually

relatively easy to install you can

obviously integrate this via enemy 2000s

to your chart plotter you can go via

laptop usb

and configure it and you can also buy it

as a sailor kit which yesterday we

actually sold to

a rib owner right sailor means you have

a single antenna and

installing a new dedicated and stena on

your boat is going to be hard

based on spatial constraints so what you

end up doing is you

use the existing vhf antenna and you

split it one for your existing vhf and

another one that comes to

ais transponder so this is a really

popular product we sell more of these

ais transponders than any other ais

transponders

and the really good reason is price

point it just

you know if you're sort of on the edge

of not sure if ais is for you and you're

sort of

aiming and unhauling and you're

wondering if is it too much and you're

not really

the commitment for buying the top-end

more expensive ais transponders

the amtrak ais transponder does it

you know not at a fraction of the cost

definitely worth considering good

quality

and we've literally sold hundreds and

hundreds and hundreds probably thousands

of them now

and we get no issues with warranty or

service it just

simply works so if you've got further

questions about amtrak

and if it's right for your boat reach

out to roton industries

or to pacific yacht systems post your

comments down below

and we'll be glad to answer any

questions you might have thanks for

watching
