Hi all! I'm putting together a shopping cart to build my chart plotter, from scratch. I'm a bit confused on what to order with my MacArthur hat for gps and ais. do I in fact also need a daisy hay or maiana base kit? And antenna or GPS antenna?  I'm a little confused as what's needed! Please help, I was hoping to put this order through tonight!

If you want to receive AIS, then you'd need a dAISy HAT. If you want to also transmit AIS, you will need a MAIANA instead.

MAIANA comes with an integrated GPS receiver. If you don't have MAIANA, you could buy a USB GPS puck for location data.

If you need Maiana, wait a little bit more. This month should be on stock, again.
If you will have MacArthur hat, the base kit is enough, you don't need a NMEA adapter.

Thank you! So it will be manufactured again then? I just saw after posting this it was currently out of manufacture, that would be great if so!!!

Yes, I'm working on it, final steps of production.
First batch should be ready this month.

That's great! Once available, what website should I purchase from? I'm located in the US.

I'm not 100% sure but I think will be the same site for worldwide orders. At least for now.

Yes, we will soon be shipping Maiana devices from Barcelona to the entire world, including the US. According to King Trump, a 30% tariff will be imposed on European products starting August 1st. We are sorry, but there is little we can do about it.

That's great? I hate it here. Do you think they will be available before the 1st, to get it in before the tariff?

I am sorry, but I do not think so. Let's see how things turn out. It will not be the first time the King has regretted it.
