Your feedback on AIS would be greatly appreciated

Fellow sailors & boaters,

I am on a mission to develop a new type of marine class B AIS transponder ... and I would greatly appreciate your help to make it happen!

My vision is to create an affordable, portable AIS transponder that integrates all essential functions (from battery pack, GNSS and Wifi, to VHF transmitter & antenna) into one rugged, simple, plug-and-play device.

But before I continue prototyping (and its formal certification), I need to ensure that I am heading in the right direction. And that's where the experienced sailing & boating community come in!

I greatly value your insights and experiences, which is why I would like to ask kindly asking for your input through an online survey.

Rest assured, this is a call for input and has no commercial motive. (There is no end product yet ;-) I am merely seeking input & feedback from fellow maritime enthusiasts.)

So, if you're up for it – and you can spare a few minutes – please fill out this anonymous survey, which can be accessed HERE.

(If the link is not work properly, you can past-copy the following link in your browser: https://forms.gle/9JFaFavffmsYQPJt5 )

If you know any other sailors & boaters who would be like to share their thoughts and experiences, please do spread the word (and link ;-) It’s greatly appreciated.

Thank’s in advance!

Best,
Bart
