As your vessels travel from Trinidad and Tobago to Grenada, St. Vincent, Barbados and beyond, they pass through different coverage areas, and keeping connectivity consistent is a constant effort.
Fluctuating network availability, harsh marine conditions, cybersecurity threats, evolving compliance requirements, and rapidly changing technology add up to a lot to manage. And reliable connectivity takes more than Starlink alone. You need a dependable onboard network, the right devices, and support you can count on. That’s where we come in. We keep your maritime IT systems connected, secure, and dependable, so your team can focus on the work that keeps your operations moving.
VesselConnect is the connectivity platform that integrates your internet and your onboard IT systems, so they work as one. Ensuring reliable connectivity.
Starlink + 4/5G internet with automatic failover
Starlink and cellular work together, with port Wi-Fi where it’s available. If one link drops or a crane blocks the dish, your vessel switches to the next best one automatically, from harbour to open water.
Onboard network
One network designed for your vessel, from the wheelhouse to the crew quarters, built on marine-grade equipment for the conditions tugs and workboats work in.
Crew and guest Wi-Fi
Crew stay in touch with home on their own phones, and guests can get online too. Their traffic stays separate from your operational and business systems.
Onboard computer devices
The laptops and computers your crew rely on, selected, set up and managed to work reliably at sea.
Email management and document sharing
Job orders, certificates and reports get from the vessel to the shore office and back, with email and shared documents set up and managed for you.
Security and compliance
Cybersecurity threats don’t skip small vessels. We build protection into the network and keep it aligned with current requirements.
Chat calling and meeting
Crew, dispatch and the office can message, call and meet by video, so updates and decisions don’t have to wait until the vessel is back in port.
Remote monitoring and support
We watch your network and fix issues remotely, so a small crew can stay focused on the job.
We support small to medium-sized commercial vessels operating across Trinidad and Tobago, including tugs, workboats, utility vessels, supply vessels, and crane barges.
Before working with Baptiste Consulting, LEAD Marine Contractors Limited experienced challenges managing IT across their vessels, including network interruptions, limited visibility into onboard systems, connectivity issues, and difficulty proactively identifying and addressing problems before they affected operations.
We implemented and managed the IT infrastructure across their fleet, including onboard networks, connectivity, monitoring, infrastructure and cybersecurity. This provided centralized visibility into their vessel IT environments, proactive monitoring and ongoing technical support.
As a result, LEAD Marine gained a more reliable and manageable IT environment across their vessels, with improved visibility, fewer connectivity-related interruptions and greater confidence in the technology supporting their day-to-day operations.
