"In January, 2006 I purchased the NASA AIS Engine at the London Boat
Show from the MailSpeed booth. MailSpeed is a UK mail/internet marine
retailer. This page is a summary of my installation of the AIS engine
and my evaluation of the various displays I have used with the AIS
Engine."
This is the best practical Info. I have seen regarding the
implementaion on a sailing vessel. Seems to be comprehensive, many
"screen capture images".

The Following is from a forum:
"You can buy the NASA AIS engine on Ebay "Buy it Now" for 119 UK
pounds, which is equivalent to US$207 or AUD$290
The site has a whole range of NASA gear for pretty cheap. I have
purchased from them, and had absolutely no problems (I bought the NASA
Clipper GPS repeater for 75 UK pounds, or US$131
If you are patient, you will probably be able to bid and win the AIS
engine for less than the aforementioned price."
