Thingsee

I spotted this in the MBY forum and thought it may be of interest here too.

Thingsee - Meet Thingsee One

It seems to have the makings of a nice tracker amongst other things. There are no prices published yet. It appears to have a lot of potential.

With a preorder price of $299 these aren't going to be super cheap. Looks interesting though.

Nothing too exciting yet, icom 506, digital yacht AIT2000, couple of procomm antennas, new typhoon drysuit. I'm going to wait 'til I have the boat in my hands before ordering plotters etc.

Anyway, thread drift, sorry
