Default Radar - attitude changes

Those big boats can (and do) filter out all signals from AIS-B
transponders to reduce clutter on their display. You may see them, but
they still don't see you.

If they do - they are at least at a legal disadvantage should a
collision happen.

An argument to fit an AIS-A transponder :-)

In this case an active radar reflector would be better, as it cannot be
filtered.
