GENOA SPECIAL – Why this mini satellite is a revolution

THE PERFECT GIFT!

Give or treat yourself to a subscription to the print + digital Journal of Sailing and for only 69 euros a year you get the magazine at home plus read it on your PC, smartphone and tablet. With a sea of advantages.


We had already touched on it at the TAG Heuer VELAFestival and now we tell you about it together with Carlo Brevini of Garmin. It is the new InReach Mini two-way satellite communicator. It costs 349 euros (plus the 14.99 euro monthly subscription) and we assure you it is money well spent. It has similar functions to its big brother InReach (ability to send and receive messages, SOS alarm), but is much more compact.

VIDEO – THE INREACH MINI REVOLUTION

At only 9.9 cm high and 5.2 cm wide and weighing only 100 g, the inReach Mini connects to send/receive messages via the Iridium satellite network, which offers 100 percent global coverage. No matter where you are you can be reached.

What if you have to launch the SOS? GEOS, the world leader in emergency management and monitoring, answers you. He has organized rescues in more than 140 countries, rescuing several people in mortal danger. It is active 7 days a week, h24 to respond to your SOS, locate the device, and alert appropriate contacts and emergency responders in the relevant area. Once an emergency signal is activated, you will be immediately informed of the waiting time, mode of operation, and constantly updated on the progress of the rescue team. https://www.garmin.com/it-IT/
