High quality telephony and broadband internet access via the GSM network have become the natural choice for overall communications and price. This particularly applies to smart-yachts where remaining connected seamlessly, just as at home or in the office, is simply not an option anymore. When in port or cruising by the coast, the GSM network is available and can provide connection speed up to 14 Mbps.

As a MARITIME VIRTUAL OPERATOR for SMART-YACHTS fully dedicated to the yachting industry, SeaSatCom quickly understood the yachting community's specific needs by designing a special range of voice and Internet packages, plus options, to meet the requirements of owners, captains, crew members and yacht managers.

The result is a plan called "My yacht Zone" offering a very unique GSM voice service ROAMING-FREE over a virtual territory covering the French Caribbean and main Mediterranean cruising countries.

Using a mobile phone on a yacht is always a stressful experience and often means "bad surprises" in roaming because borders are not drawn in the middle of the ocean. Stats show that 97% of yachtsmen's calls are initiated to or from the same five countries: Spain, Italy, Greece, France and the UK. This led us to the design the "My Yacht Zone" plan with a "no roaming, no moaning" concept in mind.

By maintaining a single price of € 0.38 (+VAT) per minute throughout the west Med. navigation zone, SeaSatCom proposes a unique voice plan with visibility, predictability and control. It simultaneously eliminates the concern of roaming in this zone, enables real money savings and saves yachtsmen from worrying about their phone usage. Below is a table and a coverage map describing this unique service.
