The Connected Yacht™ is the most innovative yacht on today’s market and can be customized to meet individual needs. This cutting-edge technology package enhances the luxury vessel experience. Even in the middle of the ocean, you will never feel far away from land, whether you desire a floating office or a home away from home, The Connected Yacht™ makes dreams a reality, leveraging all of today’s technology including HDTV, AppleTV, Internet, Audio, Security, Control, and Service.
Once you watch one football game in High Definition (HD) you can’t go back. Until recently, receiving the HD satellite signal onboard a yacht was not possible. We install TV satellite antennas that receive the HD signal, then taking that signal and distributing it throughout the yacht. With a 1080 TV, the quality is the SAME as your home TV. You can’t live without your DVR? No problem! The DVR system onboard the yacht works the same as in the home so you can record and watch back all of your favorite shows.
Apple TV give you all-the-time access to endless entertainment by playing content from iTunes, Netflix, Hulu Plus, YouTube, and your favorite sports leagues on HDTV in HD. The Connected Yacht ® uses Apple TV for downloading movies, TV shows, photos, music, and more. Wirelessly stream a movie from your Apple device to the onboard Apple TV so everyone onboard can enjoy it. www.apple.com/tv
Who said you couldn’t have high speed Internet onboard a yacht? While there a few different ways to connect onboard, The Connected Yacht™ incorporates all or some of the aforementioned sources and a very simple way to pick and choose which Internet connection you want. From your device, simply pick the source you want by clicking on the picture of the Ethernet plug. If you want to monitor and track your data usages just click on “Reset” in the Data Usage box, so you will always know what source you are connected to and the data used. Taking it a step further, you can even password protect the sources so the crew or guests can have access to the ship’s Intranet but not burn up data surfing the Internet.
We install the KVH VSAT Satellite phone antennas that provide The Connected Yacht™ a broadband network virtually anywhere in the world. With a mini –VSAT antenna you can stay connected with your family and friends via the Internet, e-mail, phone and more. Use a VOIP phone to make calls or connect a Magic Jack to save on the satellite phone fees.
With an award-winning TracVision marine satellite TV system onboard, you’ll enjoy high performance tracking, wide geographic coverage, and clear reception when watching your favorite programming.
Cellular Internet is becoming faster and faster. With the introduction of 4G LTE to the market, cellular data streaming is now being used even more often. We install a cellular device with an external antenna to provide a cellular connection even when offshore. You can use the cellular device for only data or voice and data. If you choose to use a “MiFi” unit, then The Connected Yacht™ can take that signal and distribute it throughout the yacht.
Most marinas these days have Hot Spots/WiFi. Some of the Hot Spots are far away and not easy to connect to your device. The Connected Yacht™ has an external antenna onboard the yacht that is able to receive most Hot Spots/WiFi up to 12NM away. Pull up the list of Hot Spots/WiFi’s and simply choose the one you want. Even when at anchor, you can be connected to the Internet from a nearby Hot Spot or WiFi.
The Connected Yacht™ uses only the highest quality sound systems, The SONOS HiFi system and the FUSION stereo system.
Wired sound systems are a thing of the past. The SONOS HiFi audio system allows The Connected Yacht™ to stream music from anywhere in the world wirelessly. Stream the music from your iTunes library wirelessly directly from your Apple device to the SONOS system, or use the ship’s Internet connection to play Pandora (or any music service), or play your favorite radio station form around the world! The SONOS HiFi system allows you to play the same music in every room or play different music in each room. All the functions are controlled from the palm of your hand with the FREE SONOS app. www.sonos.com
The FUSION stereo is the most sophisticated, user friendly, stereo system on the market. The Connected Yacht™ uses the FUSION stereo to play up to four (4) zones individually or simultaneously, controlled from a wired FUSION remote or from the palm of your hand with the FREE FUSION app. The FUSION stereo is a True Marine Entertainment System that can also be used as a DVD player for the smaller staterooms. Bluetooth the music from your mobile device to the FUSION stereo and play it throughout The Connected Yacht™ www.fusionelectronics.com/marine
The Connected Yacht™ is secured and monitored using the leading security company, GOST. The GOST system provides a complete package of Security, Monitoring, Tracking and Surveillance. GOST Phantom Boat Alarms and Vessel Monitoring Systems are all-in-one wireless boat alarm systems combining high security and yacht tracking applications with ease of use and unique consumer features – including a designer look you would never associate with boat security. The GOST Phantom Ship Security and Yacht Tracking System’s wireless sensors monitor and help prevent intrusion, high water, AC power loss, low battery voltage and more. Should any of the Phantom’s wireless sensors be triggered, it will call you and play a recorded voice message of the event, or if you choose – the Phantom can text message your phone.
