...to support Beneteau Powerboats’ Greatest Loop Expedition. The DeLorme inReach product, which won the National Marine Manufacturers Association Innovation Award at the 2012 Miami International Boat Show, is the first consumer-affordable personal satellite communication device offering two-way Follow-Me/Find-Me tracking and locating, text messaging and SOS alerting anywhere on the face of the Earth through the Iridium satellite network.
For the Greatest Loop Expedition, a new Beneteau Swift Trawler 34, crewed by teams of Beneteau dealers and journalists from major U.S. boating magazines, will circumnavigate Eastern North America. The voyage will launch from Annapolis, Maryland, today and will include inland rivers and canals, the Great Lakes, Gulf of Mexico, Atlantic Ocean and Intracoastal Waterway, returning to Annapolis in September.
