June 12-14 is a date for your diary if you’re a boater in Chicago. The kicks off at Burnham Harbour and Digital Yacht will be there.

We’re showing for the first time in Chicago our new AIT6000 AIS transponder which features revolutionary SPAIS AIS satellite tracking and our new EnviroLINK maritime barometer, humidity and temperature sensor solution for modern NMEA 2000 systems which makes local weather forecasting easy.

We can’t make Chicago less windy but we can make it safer!

With new ECS regulations now being enforced across the US and UK, small commercial vessel operators can no longer afford to treat navigation systems as optional upgrades.

Our latest article highlights why adopting an approved ECS solution is not just about compliance—but about safer, smarter operations at sea.

NavimetriX App is a new multi-platform marine navigation app available on iOS, Android, Windows PC, macOS, and it can now display live NMEA and AIS data directly from Digital Yacht devices such as NavLINK2 and our AIS transponders with WiFi. This allows your smartphone, tablet or computer to become a powerful, real-time navigation display.

With this integration, Navimetrix not only shows real-time AIS traffic around your boat, but can also display all of your onboard instrument data — from wind speed and direction, depth, heading, speed, position to course, and other critical navigation parameters. All clearly visualized within the app alongside detailed AIS target information including MMSI, vessel name, call sign, target type, course, speed and navigation status.

Even better, Navimetrix not only calculates CPA and TCPA collision-risk alarms, but also allows you to set custom alarms on virtually any NMEA parameter such as SOG, COG, water temperature, wind speed and direction, depth, voltage, and more. This gives you powerful, flexible safety monitoring to anticipate potential dangers and navigate with greater confidence.

Digital Yacht launch EnviroLINK, an onboard barometer and weather station for NMEA 2000 systems.

Accurate and reliable weather information is essential for every boater. While the internet provides a plethora of animated forecasts, there’s actually no substitute for localised pressure trend information from an instrument measuring most importantly air pressure, but also temperature and humidity information. Rapid changes in barometric pressure are a sure sign of impending weather changes and as the expression goes, forewarned is forearmed!

Digital Yacht’s EnviroLINK device brings traditional barometric pressure, temperature and humidity monitoring to the digital age with NMEA 2000 connectivity for your multifunction display (MFD) as well as wireless smart phone and tablet connectivity.

As we begin a new year, we would like to wish our partners a successful and prosperous 2026.

We’re pleased to start the year by introducing veLINK, our new Bluetooth wireless interface that links compatible Victron Bluetooth battery chargers, monitors, shunts, solar regulators and converters to your boat’s NMEA 2000 network.
Come and check out veLink at Hall 10, Stand D16
