Offshore Unlimited required an on board satellite TV system for their vessel believing it is essential to keep their crew and clients in touch with world news, sport and entertainment, especially as their crews work a five week on, five week off rotating roster. AST Australia provided a Thrane & Thrane SAILOR 90 antenna to fulfill Offshore Unlimited’s needs.

Offshore Unlimited “Limitless”
AST Australia also installed an Iridium Openport and a Thrane & Thrane Fleet Broadband communication systems. A user-friendly control unit with intuitive interface makes operating a SAILOR Satellite TV system easy. Menu choice covers what is needed without an overwhelming list of options. For advanced maintenance or adjustments, the control unit has an easily accessible interface for laptop connection. Also, as every satellite has limited coverage, it is necessary to be able to change from one satellite to another. With SAILOR, a button push on the control unit upon entering a new satellite territory changes the coverage– no manual adjustments above deck are necessary. SAILOR Satellite TV is also compatible with all major satellite service providers, includes pre-installed satellite locations and offers the option to easily change locations if desired.
