PLC systems are the beating heart of modern vessels, saving countless hours for their crews, and providing assurance for their owners.

We work with many yachts in a general service capacity, and specifically with Seatouch. Our Seatouch system is currently being fitted to a number of large yachts, more modest pleasure boats, work-boats and passenger ferries. We are committed to being easy to work with, and seeing our systems operate flawlessly for many years without intervention.

Your next project is a fantastic opportunity to create a system in-keeping with today’s expectations of attractive, easy to use graphical displays.
