McMurdo SmartFind M10W Class B AIS Transponder W/Wifi

The McMurdo SmartFind M10W Class B AIS Transponder with WiFi is a modern vessel safety solution designed for recreational boaters and commercial operators who demand reliable, real-time position reporting on open water. After years working the water, you understand that being visible to other traffic and rescue services isn't just regulatory compliance—it's lifesaving insurance. This compact, lightweight unit broadcasts your vessel's identity, location, course, and speed to nearby AIS-equipped vessels and shore stations, ensuring you're never invisible when it counts most.

Class B transponders operate on International Maritime Organization–approved VHF frequencies and automatically transmit your vessel data at intervals based on your speed and course, without draining power like active radar. The WiFi integration lets you monitor transponder status and diagnostics directly from your mobile device, giving you confidence in system operation without opening the helm cabinet. Weighing just 2.8 pounds and measuring a compact 6 x 4 x 13 inches, this unit installs cleanly on most vessel architectures—minimal space, maximum peace of mind. The McMurdo SmartFind M10W meets USCG carriage requirements for many commercial and recreational vessels operating in U.S. waters, and its proven build quality reflects decades of maritime electronics heritage.

Serious boaters—charter operators, fishing guides, offshore cruisers, and safety-conscious day-trippers—rely on Class B AIS to close the gap between visibility and survivability. Installation pairs the transponder with a compatible VHF antenna and a solid GPS/GNSS source; many vessels integrate it seamlessly into existing navigation systems. Whether you're running inshore waters where commercial traffic converges or heading offshore where rescue coordination depends on accurate position data, the McMurdo SmartFind M10W ensures your vessel broadcasts clearly and continuously, keeping you and your crew safer on every voyage.
