Prevent intruders on your yacht with dedicated technology

Whether you are planning to buy a yacht or already own your own luxury vessel, installing surveillance and intrusion detection equipment is one of the essential safety features you need to ensure you can sail with peace of mind. Whether you choose to enlist the help of others to ensure maritime security or whether you retain management of your vessel, these technologies have become an imperative for preventing piracy and any attempted intrusion. These offences are on the increase, and require a real prevention system to ensure smooth sailing. Your crew and your yacht will be protected.

Pelagia Yachting can help. Thanks to our network of shipyards and yacht builders, we can guarantee that you will be supplied with advanced-technology equipment tailored exactly to the specific needs of yachts. From high-resolution surveillance cameras to radar detection systems and motion sensors, we can offer you an anti-intruder solution tailored to the specific needs of your vessel.

Equipping your yacht with the latest innovations in maritime security

Choosing to use cutting-edge technology to guarantee the security of your yacht is undoubtedly the best choice for sailing in complete peace of mind. The number of security innovations adapted to yachting is increasing all the time. For example, drones can be used to provide part of the surveillance at sea. In the years to come, security systems based on the Internet of Things (IOT) will represent a major advance in the control of equipment on luxury ships. Finally, the integration of autonomous navigation systems on board your yacht will make travelling easier.

To avoid the isolation inherent in journeys at sea, you can equip your yacht with advanced communications technologies. High-speed satellites and 5G networks give you real connectivity on board, ensuring real-time communication with surveillance centres or emergency services. Whatever the problem, emergency response and any rescue and relief operations will be faster and more effective.
