We're Everywhere

You Need To Be With -s

IMPLEMENTATION BEGINS THIS YEAR.

Most commercial cargo and passenger vessels engaged in international voyages will have to start complying with the requirements of the Global Marine Distress and Safety

System — GMDSS — this year.

That will mean some major changes in your distress and safety communications equipment. Furuno is standing by to help you make these decisions.

WORLDWIDE DEALER NETWORK.

With over 250 dealers and 40 national agents stationed on six continents — plus three Continental Service Centers in the

United States, Japan and Denmark — Furuno is everywhere you need to be with GMDSS.

WIDEST PRODUCT RANGE.

We're there with a wide range of prod' ucts that meet the GMDSS requirements. From radiotelephones to integrated consoles. Inmarsat

Ship Earth Stations. DSC terminals. EGC/ Navtex receivers.

Watchkeeping receivers. And there's more to come.

GMDSS GUIDE AVAILABLE.

And we're there with the expertise to help you identify exactly what products you'll need. In fact, we have a "GMDSS

Guide" we can send you right away to explain the GMDSS system and how you'll be expected to comply.

It's all part of our leadership role in GMDSS development.

A role that spans the globe to bring you the products and ser- vice you need wherever you need to be.
