The gov't of Qatar just passed a new regulation requiring all boats to be equipped with AIS. We have serious security threats and concerns here, so the waterways are very tightly controlled now. So I need to outfit my little 20ft fisherman with this transponder:
em-trak I100 – AIS Identifier | SRT Marine Systems
What I'm wondering is what is the real difference between this unit (which costs $390 here) versus a more mainstream transponder which costs double? Also, would this little, portable unit be adequate for a full size trawler?
