I'm planning on getting a AIS receiver for my boat this season, I don't
need a display, just the data stream.

Anybody have any recommendations?

Thanks

Any particular reason not to go to a transponder?
It will make sure you get seen ...
Simrad AI50 eg


If was going to be offshore single handed, sure, but for the kind of
sailing I do, mostly day trips, I can't really justify the expense.

Cheers
