Extensive Ecdis Options

Navi-Sailor ECDIS 3000 systems are to be installed aboard several vessels in the Chilean Navy fleet. The move comes after tests were performed on board a number of warships and auxiliary vessels sailing the extensive Chilean Sea areas. The region is known to present specific navigational challenges, placing strong demands on effective and professional navigation. One of the first systems to be installed will be on the Esmerelda, a training ship which recently left port on an annual training voyage with the next generation of naval trainees and midshipman. The crew will be able to run the system through its paces during their voyage through the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans towards the North and Baltic Seas. The recently DNV type-approved systems have also featured on several of the fleet’s combat units, with full integration into the bridge equipment.
