Satellite Phone (Thuraya) - How to use at satellite phone at sea

As mobile phones are not working in the high sea of the central mediterranean area, a satellite phone - usually called Thuraya - is absolutely necessary to be able to alarm in distress situations. In this video clip we explain the use of this life saving instrument for sea crossing and how to find and send a GPS-position.
Our intention is neither to deter people from attempting to cross, nor to encourage them, but rather to provide information for more safety at sea. Please always keep in mind that this information might save your life, but it will not make your journey less dangerous.
