MAST spies demand for its Perimeter Protection System

Maritime Asset Security and Training (MAST) has announced its bespoke Perimeter Protection System will be available to superyachts in the new build and refit stage.

The system has been put to test successfully on a 70m German built yacht and is now being promoted for uptake amongst others seeking a bespoke security system.

“We are helping designers and manufacturers to design-in a wide range of bespoke security measures both at construction and when they are refurbished,” said David Gates, MAST Technology's head of sales.

Gates added that MAST Technology, a subsidiary of the security organisation and services provider, has seen a recent upturn in the amount of enquiries from owners for security consultation. In particular as a result of Egypt’s January riots, the company has seen more requests for armed protection in the Suez Canal.

“We’re receiving more requests for security consultations and VIP close protection support from superyacht owners due to the deteriorating security situation in parts of North Africa,” said Gates.
 
“The Suez Canal is a key route in the seasonal move of superyachts from the Mediterranean and as a result, owners are relying on measures such as armed transit teams to ensure the safe passage of their vessels.”



MAST’s superyacht Perimeter Protection System uses computer stabilized analytics to select, track and alert the yacht’s crew to whoever approaches the yacht unannounced.

It is designed with three layers of integrated intruder detection operated through a touch‐screen interface. Its 360 degree field of vision make it able to detect approaching craft at distances of over 400 metres.
