Not even Prince William would be allowed in without an ADS (Automatic Dependent Surveiliance) system, so CAST has introduced the FINS Model 580V - the only recognized, authorized and mandated ADS system required on tankers in the Prince William Sound of Alaska.

CAST, an innovator in GPS navigation systems problem solving, has created a user-friendly unit, fully compliant with federal regulations for this particular area of the world as well as others.

The system features an all-in-view, twelve channel GPS receiver with a high resolution, liquid crystal touch screen display with easy to understand control commands. It can automatically accept differential corrections from a built-in marine band Non-Directional Beacon receiver, and can automatically respond to a Vessel Traffic Center via VHF-FM DSC transceiver when the vessel enters designated waters.

The FINS Model 580V ADS Unit from CAST - if you're heading for Prince William Sound, or anywhere that requires an ADS system, don't leave home port without it! 5450 Katella Avenue, Los Alamitos, California 90720 U.S.A. (310) 493-3536 • (310) 594-8883 • FAX (310) 594-4694
