Don’t look now, but artificial intelligence has hit the Boating Industry,

Likely to have profound effects

Artificial Intelligence, (AI), is likely to have profound effects on the way we boat. It can allow for improved safety and navigation through capabilities such as navigation in shallow water, detection of hazards, and long-distance route planning. Autonomous boats can be used for a wide range of tasks such as search and rescue, ocean exploration, and even delivery services.

Artificial Intelligence can help improve comfort and efficiency while boating, such as regulated speed control, fuel optimization, and intelligent energy management. AI can also provide weather forecasting and real-time updates that can in turn assist you in making the best decisions during a boating trip.

Finally, AI can automate boat maintenance tasks to ensure the reliability and safety of your boat

When can we expect the effects of Artificial Intelligence to impact boating?

AI’s impact on boating is being felt today, and its effects will continue to grow in the future.

The technology is in its infancy, so we can expect to see many more advancements in how AI can be used to make boating safer, more efficient, and more enjoyable over the coming years

AI has the potential to dramatically reduce boating costs in the long run. Once downloaded, and equipped, boats can help optimize fuel consumption, reduce maintenance costs, and streamline operations. Additionally, AI-based navigation systems can help identify optimal routes and improve overall efficiency. In the end, AI can result in significant cost savings over time.

The US COAST GUARD and AI

The U.S. Coast Guard is using AI in a variety of ways to help improve their operations. They are using AI-powered vision systems and cameras to detect suspicious vessels, track boat movement, and monitor oceanic traffic. AI is also being used for decision support and predictive analytics to improve decision making and resource management
