Default Using AIS receiver on Garmin ChartPlotters

Thanks,

The display of Ships Info is OK? It displays the Dynamic and Static
Info too? What are the ships data displayed? What model of Garmin
plotter you have? There is good documentation on the units manual
about the AIS support?

Thanks again

Pascal

Itīs OK with the exception that it doesnt work in "course up" mode. The
AIS ships and vectors always seem to treat the map as "north up",
making the boats go sideways on the map in "course up" mode. A
ridiculus bug that must be embarrasing to Garmin...

Anybody using it? Any comments about? I am thinking to change my 276C
for a 3005/3205 IF the AIS support is good enough.
Thanks
