Q
Because of the distance to the Inmarsat satellites, you get the
two second delay we are familiar with when watching foreign
correspondents nodding their heads on the evening news. As
both Iridium and Globalstar have a low earth orbit, they do not
have any delay.
Picking the right sat phone and plan can be a bit daunting as
there are a myriad of them to choose from. In this regard, the
satellite companies do not take a back seat to mobile suppliers.
The main thing is to establish just how much communication
ability you really need. Plans can get expensive quickly.
Finton Robb is marketing manager for Globalstar Canada.
He points out that while there is rapid development in software
applications, things move more slowly in the field of satellite
communications. It takes a massive effort and financial investment to launch satellites. Finton says Globalstar has emerged as
a leader with the launch of their low earth orbit satellites in
2013. Low earth orbit satellites give excellent voice quality with
little or no time lag.
As an example, Globalstar considers the GSP 1700 sat
phone its workhorse model, retailing for $499. Plans are flexible
and can be purchased for short periods of time so you don't pay
for access you are not using.
MAKE YOUR SMARTPHONE AT LOT SMARTER
The ubiquity of smartphones means that increasingly, people
want to work with one device, with their smartphone being the
primary device for information and communication. Both
Globalstar and Iridium have released systems that allow you to
use your smartphone for remote locations.

Vantage Point: A “Flare” for Safety
Club Profile: Sidney North Saanich Yacht Club
Pacific Northwest Classic: Southern Straits Race - For the last 49 years, the West Vancouver Yacht Club has proudly hosted the Annual Southern Straits Race. Known for offering challenging conditions, this Pacific Northwest classic is a proud qualifying event for both the VanIsle 360 and Vic-Maui Yacht Race. This year, Canadian Yachting magazine’s Bob Nicoll sailed on one of the 82 boats that competed. By Bob Nicoll
Canadian Boatbuilder Profile: Modernizing Tradition at Rossiter Boats - The history of Rossiter Boats is one that combines passion, fostering of tradition, and an eye towards the future. It all started 40 years ago with 19-year-old George Rossiter repairing the wooden canoe of a fellow cottager on Go Home Bay. Now Rossiter is perhaps Canada’s fastest-growing boatbuilder. By Kate Fincham
Cruising Technology: Staying Connected - Your summer cruise may be a vacation, but a pretty sizeable percentage of boat owners do want to keep in contact, whether for business or family reasons. In the not too distant past it was a big deal to clear your responsibilities and be able to take off for even a few weeks. However, connectivity for the average boater is improving and within the financial reach of most. By Glen Cairns
