Forward-looking Sonar on MY Sea Owl

  08/09/2010
Burger Boat's recently launched 43m Tri-Deck superyacht Sea Owl has chosen a FarSounder Forward-looking Sonar to enhance their navigation and safety systems. On behalf of the vessel's manager and owner's representative, IMA Yachts, Company field service staff attended the sea trials to commission the system and provide the Captain and crew with operator support.

The FS-3DT, with a range of 440m, is one of FarSounder's premium products, having been in service now since 2004.

 

FarSounder has been leading the way in 3D Forward-looking Sonar and more and more of today's major yachts are specifying this latest enhancement to navigation safety. With expected travel to exotic ports around the world, it was only natural that this luxury yacht should include a FarSounder navigation and obstacle avoidance system to help assure smooth travels. As owners seek out new and more adventurous locations in possibly poorly charted waters, these new challenges to safe navigation require the best navigation equipment available.
