B&G V60-B VHF Marine Radio with AIS Receiver & Transmitter

B&G's V60-B fixed VHF marine radio enables you to see and be seen in all conditions. The stylish design includes a removable fist mic, Class D DSC functionality and built-in GPS.

A dual-channel AIS receiver monitors the position of nearby AIS-equipped vessels and helps other vessels spot your boat through any conditions, day or night, helping you avoid collisions in crowded harbours and waterways. This data can be viewed on the VHF radio's built-in screen, or alternatively overlaid on your chart or radar screen through a compatible multifunction display. An integrated GPS receiver ensures your vessel's location can be sent with Digital Selective Calling (DSC) distress calls, even if the rest of your on-board electronics are powered down.

By pressing the NAV mode, the V60-B can be turned into a navigational instrument displaying speed and course. Simply hold down the NAV/MOB button to drop a waypoint on your current location, and the fixed VHF radio will enter man overboard mode to show you how far away you are and where you need to steer to get back to the position of the MOB event. Furthermore, the MOB waypoint is also transmitted over NMEA 2000 to the rest of your network.

V60-B has a removable fist mic that can be connected to the front or rear of the radio, with optional extension cables enabling the mic and radio to be mounted separately. This provides a simple and cost-effective solution for any mounting location, with no cable clutter. For example, the V60-B can be mounted overhead with no hanging cables, while the mic is connected to an extension socket on the dash below.

There's also an optional H60 wireless handset, so you can take your radio anywhere on board. Each handset duplicates your radio's display and controls, enabling remote access to all key functions. Up to two handsets can be connected to a single V60-B VHF radio and with multiple handsets connected, your radio doubles as an on-board intercom.

V60-B's buddy track feature automatically requests the position of up to five VHF radios at set intervals. All you have to do is enter the MMSI of the VHF into your contact list and start tracking. You will be able to see their position in any compatible chartplotter.
