Advanced Towing System

Working away from family and friends can be tough for the yacht crew. They may find it harder to talk about feeling down or stressed compared to people ashore who see their loved ones daily. Communication with home can be limited. Crew members often deal with other challenges like monotonous routines, long hours, shift work, and isolation.
Depth of control
Spring 2025. Off the coast of Palma de Mallorca, a group of captains and technical experts gathers aboard a 24-metre superyacht. On the surface, it’s a calm day. Below the waterline, however, a silent revolution is underway. Anchored securely in a sandy patch off the coast, the vessel’s position is being monitored—not just by the crew—but by a smart system embedded directly in the anchor chain. Every movement is tracked. Every load is recorded. And if the anchor begins to shift, the crew is alerted in real time—before the vessel reacts.
