The dAISy has an auxiliary serial port. Connecting the GPS module to this port frees up a port on the Pico. This port can be connected to a TTL-RS-422 level converter that can take DSC data (!CDDSC & !CDDSE) from a marine VHF transceiver to provide location data from any radios in range. It can also be used to alert on distress calls.

The dAISy mini is smaller, consumes less power than the dAISy Hat, has a low-noise amplifier, and still has an auxiliary serial port that a GPS module can be connected to. dAISy Mini AIS Receiver Manual.pdf
