I have used Marine Traffic and it's companion
App, On Course on my iPad for years. Both
require access to the internet and rely on the
wireless devices GPS. And, they both work great.
MarineTraffic shows all of the AIS signals, tags
each with vessel information as well as course
and speed. You can set it so that is shows the
projected course out in an adjustable number of minutes.
On Course goes one step further and assigns you
an AIS number and position in almost real
time. It is transmitted over the AIS network. Pretty slick!

Enjoying the portability (and reliability Edd)
of the IPad. Without the laptop I have lost my
AIS. Started googling around "AISing" the IPad
and thought I would tap into the brain trust and
save me some screen face time. I assume it is
possible. Or is a AIS/VHF the better route.
