LIVE MOB POSITION Receive and alarm the instant somebody goes over the side and activates their AIS Man Overboard Device. The Man Overboard (MOB) Alarm clearly identifies the MOB on your Cortex or XB-8000 smartAIS display. It clearly shows their location, bearing and range of the person for quick retrieval. It provides continuous updates of position, bearing and range as new information is received.
