M3P and M3P-T buoys
M3P and M3P-T buoys have been designed to be used in bottom-set or surface-
set longline fishing. Its use involves great fuel savings by enabling route
optimization during deployment and collection, and an improvement in the
organization of the tasks performed on board, being able to perform a
complete tracking of the longline and all the buoys.
These buoys transmit by radio and at no cost encrypted messages that can
only be interpreted by their owner, which can be received 50 miles away.
The M3P-T buoy transmits its position and battery level, and the water surface
temperature data.
