Posted on: Wednesday, 4 November 2009, 08:00 CST

LAS VEGAS, Nov. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- Satworx (www.satworx.com), the leading provider of satellite phone solutions, today announces a promotion benefiting those in the maritime industries such as shipping and fishing or leisure sailors who spend time on small and large vessels where cell phone service is unavailable. Now through December 31, 2009, any boat owner or captain that signs a premium plan contract with Satworx will receive one of three free Sailor FleetBroadband satellite phones, valued between $5,000 - $15,000. Sailor FleetBroadband is the only satellite solution for maritime communication that provides cost-effective data and voice in a single terminal. The terminal also provides real-time weather updates, uninterrupted access to email, the internet, fax and calls, the most up-to-date chart data and efficiency route planning. A crew calling feature keeps operating costs low and crew morale high.
