Have you ever tried to call out a freighter on VHF without any information? They rarely respond, right ? Definitely, its an interesting additional aid to your navigation tool set. Specially if you're not sure about that "big ship" manouvering; you simply call them by name/position/mmsi/etc and quite sure they will respond.It's true that some commercial vessels still don't carry a transponder, but certainly AIS will add to your navigational safety.
