I have been a big fan of Vesper Marine for several years now since I installed a WatchMate on my Island Packet 40 prior to crossing the Indian Ocean in 2009. My website promotes Vesper AIS to other cruisers. I just purchased an AIS MOB module and will add to my site after I test it [with the WatchMate which supports these new AIS MOB devices]. Just as AIS was the biggest deal for sailors since GPS, these new MOB units that direct the ship back to the MOB are breakthrough and priced right. A whole new reason to have a Vesper WatchMate on board.

What Customers Are Saying About the AISWatchMate...
We have the 850 and I have to say we absolutely love it, sailing around the southern North Sea off the UK, France, Belgium and Holland where shipping can be busy and deep water restricted. Looking up a vessel's destination is particularly useful because it can tell us whether it will shortly turn into this channel or that. Took us a while to rumble that we had to set the profiles to stop the alarm going off every few minutes but we now have that sorted. It's a fabulous addition to safety as well as giving us peace of mind because we know we are on the other guy's screen!
Yes, do post some or all of my comments - that's why I sent them. Credit where credit is due!
