Description
Boat Beacon is an internet AIS receiver and transmitter for your iPhone and iPad. It is the only AIS ship tracking app to provide Collision Warnings, share your boat’s position & use real-time AIS data.
Connected to the largest network of AIS shore receivers world-wide covering most major ports, harbours and popular coastal areas.
“An outstanding app, with great potential. Both interesting to use and very user friendly. This could be a life saver and especially of interest to small boat users. Everyone who goes on the water should have this on and use it!” ***** Sun Dream, App Store Review
Boat Beacon is specifically designed for boaters & provides continuous Bearing, Range & Closest Point of Approach (CPA) calculations and alarms in addition to standard AIS information even when in the background.
Boat Beacon does not require any external AIS transponder or receiver equipment.
Key Features
------------
Over-the-horizon collision avoidance (30 miles radius) using continuous CPA calculations - highlights boats that are on a potential collision course and alerts you with an alarm.
Continually transmits and receives position information via the internet and calculates and alarms CPA even when the app is in the background.
Shares your position with Internet AIS Systems and apps and other Boat Beacon users in real time.
Real time ship map view with North up and Heading up modes so you can look in the direction of the ships on the map to locate them.
Nav display showing own boat's speed, course, heading and position.
Man Overboard tracking, SART Alarm, Anchor watch and Theft alarms.
Apple Watch App included
Siri voice commands
Export tracks
Boat-to-Boat & Boat-to-Group Messaging.

Your position can be shared and seen on all our apps without using an MMSI number. To be seen on Global AIS systems like MarineTraffic you need an MMSI number. In the US you can obtain one by visiting http://www.boatus.com/mmsi or email us for a free internet MMSI number.
Please note that continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.
NOT FOR NAVIGATION
Boat Beacon should only be used for basic navigation reference and should not be solely relied upon to determine precise locations, proximity, distance, or direction. You will not be visible to other ships on VHF only AIS systems.

Slet intet værd
Først køber du programmet, så skal du købe abbonenter for at få det til at tale sammen med fis Navionic, der efter skal du lige købe noget mere for art få live updates. Måske smart engang, men bestemt ikke pengene værd nu. Hold dig fra det, jeg har i hvert fald lige spildt 100 USD. På app og abbonoment. Daniel
Great app!
Fantastic and well working AIS app. This replaces exspensive AIS transponder. Great work!
Super!
Virker perfekt, også delen med AIS transmit. Ved aller første brug går dog op til 30 min før båden er synlig med korrekte data i andre systemer. Nu har jeg kun prøvet hjemmefra, så jeg ved derfor ikke om fart og kurs vises rigtigt
Ok men
Har ikke set endnu om den virker på vores men den bruger en masse strøm mvh. Jean
