Swathe Services Takes Delivery of SBG Ekinox Navsight INS for Customer Demonstrations

Swathe Services has recently added the SBG Ekinox Navsight to its equipment demo pool.  After extensive trials on manned and unmanned vessels operating under bridges, in harbours and offshore for Hydrographic applications, the performance of the Ekinox Inertial Navigation System (INS) has convinced the hydrographic survey services company.

Its small compact subsea form factor and weight makes this system light and easy to install with portable sonar systems. The SBG Ekinox Navsight is ideal for shallow water applications.

James Williams, managing director at Swathe, explained: “Since we became the distributor for SBG Systems, we have seen a steady increase in sales across all their product ranges, selling into land, air, and marine industries. The Navsight solution has been specifically designed for Hydrographic applications and is symbiotic with all Sonars offering ethernet or RS232 connectivity.  We now own a number of SBG sensors which we offer out to customers for trial and invite interested parties to contact us.”
