Anchors Away: Two New Tools for Offgrid Adventurers

Getting away from “it all” doesn’t have to mean losing touch thanks to these two startups.

Whether you’re sailing miles from shore or trekking hours from the nearest power source, however far from civilization you roam, the latest tools launched by these innovative teams will ensure you stay connected…

NightShift Pro from Aterlo

If all that’s missing from your latest sailing expedition is the option to bed down for the night with your favorite Netflix series, look no further – leading streaming video specialists, Aterlo, have created the perfect product, just for you.

Using unique satellite-powered software, cutting-edge service NightShift Pro can support up to 50 simultaneous HD streams, making frustrating buffering and latency issues a thing of the past – however big your crew.

By pre-loading content via a dedicated satellite application rather than relying on bandwidth capabilities to “live” stream, Aterlo cleverly bypasses the limitations of traditional internet services altogether, leaving you free to binge on as many movies as you like.

Who said bedtimes have to be boring? From yachts to merchant ships, however big your vessel – and however off-course you sail – you can now climb aboard safe in the knowledge that you’ll never miss a new season again.

NightShift Pro is currently available to any yacht or vessel in the world with Internet access. Pricing is variable, depending on project requirements, and is available on request.
