Just read about these ''saildrones'' in AFLOAT magazine and was wandering:
What happens if a cruiser or a vendee globe racer hit a saildrone and sink?
The CSIRO website says that [they]''are equipped with both automatic identification systems (AIS) and ship avoidance systems to alert and avoid other ocean users''. Knowing the number of ships that are still not equipped with ais and that I doubt a constant radar surveillance system is equipped on these things, are they a real danger for small vessels?
I don't find any mention of this on the saildrone website
