The SmarterChart 500 AIS Combo from Digital Yacht is the world's first 5" chart plotter to feature a built-in AIS receiver. Coupled with an internal 50 channel GPS receiver, it effortlessly plots your position on the electronic chart and overlays all AIS targets within 20 miles of your boat.

Sharing the same 5" sunlight viewable 320 x 240 pixel (65,000 Color) LCD display as the other Smarter Chart 500 plotters, it is fully compatible with C-Map MAX electronic charts, providing unprecedented value and detail. Supporting advanced features such as free downloadable weather overlays and forecasts, 3D perspective view, photos, tidal heights and currents, as well as the powerful Guardian Alarm which checks your route for potential charted dangers.

AIS target range, like VHF range is dependent upon a number of installation factors such as; antenna gain, antenna height and size of ground plane. Ranges in excess of 20 miles should be possible if all of these factors are perfect.
