On 31 Oct 2007 16:03:01 -0700, Chuck Gould penned the following well
considered thoughts to the readers of rec.boats:
|
|Lage vessels are already required to carry transponders by the A.I.S.
|system. Extending that to all vessels wouldn't be an entirely
|ridiculous possibility.

Except in busy areas the radar screen would look like a huge blob of
white.... unless they split the area up into a gazillion sectors.

It would be as big a mess as ATC.... both which they would probably
privatize out to the lowest bidding county.....

go figure.....
