Mini Voyage Data Recorder System
When the Facts Matter, Have the Data.
The AMI Marine X-MDR gives smaller commercial vessels a powerful “black box” for recording what really happened. Capturing audio, navigation data, radar/ECDIS imagery and optional CCTV, it provides a reliable, retrievable record of events — helping protect your crew, your vessel and your business when questions are asked.
The X-MDR is particularly suited to vessels that fall outside mandatory VDR/S-VDR requirements, but the value of reliable recorded evidence isn't determined by vessel size or regulation.
Protect Yourself When the Questions Start
Following a collision, near miss, incident or insurance claim, the question is often simple: what actually happened? The X-MDR provides an objective record of the vessel's operation, allowing events to be reconstructed from recorded data rather than relying solely on statements from those involved.
For smaller operators, this can be particularly important when disputes involve larger vessels, operators or insurers. Having your own reliable evidence can make all the difference.


Record More Than Just the Conversation
The X-MDR can record VHF and bridge audio, NMEA navigation data, AIS information and images from radar, ECDIS and chart plotters. Optional CCTV expands the system further, with support for up to 8 IP cameras and real-time viewing.
Instead of trying to piece an incident together from separate systems, the X-MDR brings critical information together into one recorded timeline.
Data You Can Actually Use
Recording data is only useful if you can retrieve and understand it.
AMI Marine's replay software makes reviewing recorded information straightforward, allowing operators, engineers and investigators to reconstruct the sequence of events. Data can be downloaded for review, while the system's mapping display helps put the vessel's movements into context.
With storage options available up to 4TB, the X-MDR can provide an extended history of vessel operations rather than simply recording the immediate aftermath of an incident.
