ARE YOU A MARINA OWNER/OPERATOR?
Wireless broadband Internet access is an exciting, powerful new addition to the range of services that Marinas can offer to their berth holders, resident companies and on-site residential complexes.
The demand for the service is clear. Boat owners are making more and more use of computing on board. The rapid growth of PC based electronic charting and passage planning is matched by the increasing use of the Internet for supplying yachting information such as up to date weather and tidal data. Recently conducted market research indicates that 90% of boat owners are regular users of the Internet and have internet access at home. In addition, 35% of boat owners when questioned said that they would pay for Internet access on board their boat.
A partnership with SeaByte enables the marina operator to provide that service without the need for any capital outlay on the infrastructure required to deliver and maintain that service. In addition Sea Byte’s unique free marina portal page gives the marina operator direct access to its berth holders to promote its services, inform its customers of new offers and innovations, and develop exciting new services, even if they do not subscribe to the full SeaByte service.
