NSSLGlobal powers safety at sea
NSSLGlobal is equipping one yacht with advanced GMDSS technology to enhance marine safety and communications during the 2025 Tall Ships Races.
The cutting-edge Iridium LT-3100S GMDSS system, will deliver SOLAS compliant satellite-enabled marine communications, real-time distress alerts and maritime safety information to the Ocean Youth Trust North’s yacht James Cook.
“We’re grateful to NSSLGlobal for providing satellite communications with the GMDSS equipment that is critical to keep our young crews safe,” said Steve Lennon, managing director at Ocean Youth Trust North.
“NSSLGlobal gives us the reassurance that our crews have the best emergency communications out there.”
Enhanced safety
This technology will significantly enhance marine navigation and crew safety onboard the 21-metre training yacht as it crosses the North Sea.
The GMDSS system is designed to deliver immediate emergency response capabilities, even in the most remote waters. Its inclusion ensures constant connectivity, supporting safe operations and providing peace of mind for both crew and guardians.
This latest delivery reflects NSSLGlobal’s longstanding commitment to maritime safety and its prominent position in the global marine communications market.
The company celebrated its 55th anniversary in the marine sector last year and it supports a wide range of defence and commercial clients, including the UK Ministry of Defence, German Armed Forces, MOL and Teekay.
NSSLGlobal also strengthened its strategic technology partnerships, notably last year with Danelec Marine, a leading manufacturer of Voyage Data Recorders (VDRs).
