It an IMO requirement and after 31 Dec 04 all vessels over 300
tons....many convoluted exceptions re: freight, flag, country of origin,
ports visited etc. etc. the USCG will require AIS on just about all
commercial vessels over 65 feet, ships registered for over 150
passengers, and tow vessels over 26 feet and 600 hp used domestically
and entering from foreign waters.

And whoever said the US Government used business models?
