Modern super yachts are increasingly likely not to be sailing by themselves. In order to support a luxurious and secluded life on-board, there often are accompanying vessels and possibly a helicopter.
In essence, AIS is meant to enhance situational awareness for all nearby vessels by broadcasting information such as vessel name and position. This is a useful basis for tracking your own assets, and the TTS taps into the power of AIS to achieve that, without telling the rest of the world. This is done by transmitting information over a separate encrypted channel that only appropriate transponders you authorize can decode.
There are three transponder models available:
Convenience
Full view of both public and private position reports of nearby vessels in all visibility conditions
Determine estimated time of arrival of you support assets
Track the position history of your fleet
