Leisure boats

Safety is paramount in leisure boating, and Jotron leads the way with comprehensive communication solutions for personal and distress situations at sea. We pioneered the Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB), demonstrating our commitment to marine safety.

When it comes to safety at sea, there is no compromise for any type of vessel, including leisure boats.

1. Our EPIRBs, along with our entire product range, undergo rigorous testing in the harshest environments.

2. At the core of our offerings are Personal Locator Beacons (PLBs). These compact devices, carried by individual boaters, send distress signals with pinpoint GPS coordinates, speeding up rescue operations when every second counts.

3. For the vessel itself, we provide Search and Rescue Transponder and Transmitter (SARTs), enhancing safety by increasing visibility to search and rescue teams, aiding in swift location and rescue efforts.

4. Additionally, handheld VHF radios are essential for real-time communication on the water and serve as backup communication channels in emergencies.

Governmental vessels

Key solutions for government vessels include the integration of our Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS ) products, such as Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB), Search and Rescue Transponder and Transmitter (SARTs), and GMDSS handheld VHF AM and FM radios. Navigation tools like echo sounders and speed logs not only enhance maritime safety, but also provide high-accuracy measurements essential for precise navigation, depth soundings, and speed monitoring.

These advanced technologies improve maritime safety by providing distress signals, supporting search and rescue operations, ensuring reliable communication, and enhancing navigation accuracy.

Implementing these GMDSS products and SKIPPER navigational tools is crucial for ensuring the safety and efficiency of government vessels operating at sea.

Maritime communication

Our AIS Class A, EPIRB, SART, and VHF GMDSS products are used on ships, vessels, and energy installations worldwide, while our PLB ensures safety during outdoor activities. Our locator product enables accurate tracking of fishing gear.
