We have handheld GPS, handheld VHF radio, where is my handheld AIS??
Remember the VHF only has to receive, so the larger bulky batteries
wouldn't
be required.

The SR-162G uses little power and is a stand-alone AIS/GPS receiver.
Milltech has a bundle with Coastal Explorer on sale for your laptop for
$759. Power the SR-162G off a little gelcell in your laptop briefcase....

Voila...portable, independent AIS with full navigation system from Coastal
Explorer. Will that do it?...(c;
