Pilothouse to Engine Room

One of the most critical applications for improved verbal interaction on workboats is for effective communications between the pilothouse and the engine room. On active vessels, crew spend significant time in the engine room and need to talk with the wheelhouse frequently. Setcom's customized marine solution allows for the engine room crew to wirelessly communicate to the pilothouse and other locations on the vessel while having hearing protection in one of the louder areas of a boat.

Pilothouse to Deck Crew

With all of the different tasks that deck crew do on a workboat, being able to communicate with the wheelhouse untethered and hands-free can greatly increase safety and efficiency. No more shouting, no more hand signals, no more miscommunication. Just highly effective verbal communication that makes your vessel run smoothly whether at the dock, harbor, or open sea.

Crane Operator to Dock or Other Vessels

Marine cranes present a communications challenge because of the relative isolation of the crane operator and the need to communicate hands-free. Setcom's market leading crane communication systems have been used in the field for over 45 years and are proven to solve this difficult communications application. Setcom's systems allow an operator to comply with OSHA regulations and effectively communicate with all boat and dock personnel.
