Piracy is a problem in the 21st Century! Sea Piracy has tripled in the last decade as Pirates become ever more bolder in the types of shipping they attack and in the frequency of attacks. It is no longer just  private yachts which are at risk but even large container ships have been attacked . As a consequence Ship and Yacht security is high on the priority list of Mariners operating in the critical areas:

 

Ship Security can take various forms , from armed guards, electrified guard rails, enhanced radar capabilities to sophisticated Thermal Imaging Cameras. Thermal Imaging cameras from GB Solo help in the fight against Piracy at sea by enabling watch keepers to identify potential threats which Radar may not always identify. They work in all conditions including bright sunlight by identifying heat sources (eg a 6ft man can be identified at up to 1 kilometre away), thus giving the watch keeper time to take pre emptive action.

The SOLOvision S2 Search and Rescue is the most versatile and most rugged long range thermal imaging camera available today. Ideal for any situation from surveillance and vessel security to "man overboard". This thermal imaging camera has the ability to identify objects over long ranges through darkness, fog, smoke ,or direct bright blinding spotlights. SOLOvision is water resistant, vibration proof and can withstand flashover of 1000c for 10 seconds. Suitable for use with all known breathing apparatus and gas masks giving clear man detection up to 1Kilometre. Features of this thermal imaging camera
