SATELLITE TELEPHONEY GOES MAINSTREAM - Communications are crucial to the voyaging yachtsman. As the technologies develop and costs fall, formerly unimaginable convenience and security are readily available.

With GlobalStar launching an additional 8 satellites in the first half of 2007, and with a new constellation of 48 birds scheduled for launch in 2009, satellite telephony is becoming mainstream.
