Communication at Sea by Delivery Captain
Safety at Sea and Satellite Communiaction option
Satellite Communication Delivery Captains best choice.
This is a service in place on all our deliveries, anywhere in the world.
While a great effort is put into boat preparation, making sure that we cover safety onboard, regular maintenance, and safety at sea are always at the top of our list.
Keeping customers constantly informed on what is happening on the vessel, is our priority.
We run our deliveries in a very conservative way, reaching the best wear and tear positive result. However, some voyages are rather long, and weather, together with possible breakage, is always a concern.
Our captains can receive constant weather update and support from our office and this enables them to take always best decision while evaluating alternative routes chance.
Also, this becomes a great tool to consider safety stops while at sea. Our office will constantly monitor all communication via satellite and provide both captains and boat owners, with the best options to avoid any possible trouble.
Satellite communication devices will not only offer the opportunity to follow up on possible troubles or changes in route or even weather conditions but will also provide a pleasurable way to simply and in all comfort follow the journey of their loved yacht.
Customers are always kept up to date and also crew can keep in touch with friends and family.
Here at Delivery Captain we firmly believe in Safety at Sea, for both crew and yachts, and make communication a priority.

Elon Mask is continuously updating plans and pricing. We tested the dish and service across the Atlantic and it was fantastic. It’s slightly expensive but worth every penny. However, for real safety, we would strongly advise you to have something that you can take with you in a real emergency such as a liferaft/sinking for instance.
