Within just 10 minutes of learning the SM300 UI, Dimitris was remotely controlling our test boat in Boston—all the way from his home in Greece!
Dimitris Chatzimichail is the lucky winner of our ‘Win A Spin’ contest from last month, earning the chance to take our Boston test vessel out for a spin!
Although an experienced mariner himself, Dimitris has never used the system before but was able to pick it up easily, noting similarities between the SM300 UI to #ECDIS.
Watch on to see our test vessel captain Kelsey Longhi and Dimitris plot waypoints, lay grids, and more below!

It's something incredible. It's something like a movie. Yeah, I know this is this is really, really neat stuff. I haven't been excited about new technology probably since the early 2000s when autopilots got really good. So I'll give you a little brief rundown of the UI. So we got our radar image over here. That line is your heading. Over here, we've got the status button. And now you can see. Different readings and so that will be the year speed, that's the depth underneath map. That you're heading in course over ground and position. Our fuel probably won't need these, but we can set up like safety zones, drop markers, drop man overboard. We definitely won't need that one or I'm in big trouble. So I'll kind of run you through the mission planning menu and then I'll reset it and then I'll let you have at it. So she said I can give a mission name. Did you see you made discussion, Hale? Right, like needy. I like it. So if my shadow can't change the camera, ohh, Yep Yep. Alright, here we go. We can send the soldier how it decrease or increase the depth? Full control. Here I can see it's another target with the alpha. Has been detected. There is. And the weekend update? That's me. Yep. Did you want to plot another one? Yes. Why not? Of course. Yep. Who said no? Yes, of course everyone would say yes. The next place you double click the grid will here. So also this blue circle. Is, uh, or you know, we turned on collision avoidance and so it's set to 500. So that's five, that's circles 500 meters around us. Something interested, We'll start tracking. And if we said to 1000 circle will be bigger, you know be 1000 just kind of gives you a a visual of like where your guard something. I think that everyone who is a skipper on a motor you today she will enjoy very much with this technology. No sound and no hot, no all the weather conditions, very nice. Like nice. It seems the operation is some features like the egg, this like electronic chart you if you are in similar. Yeah, we tried to make it so that, you know, especially manners that are used to using a Nexus, like you know, that's what I use for 10 years. And then coming over to this, it's a lot of the same icon. So especially managers have already dealt with the Nexus, they're going to find this very easy. Awesome, I like the way you can go in and alter the grid. I can imagine a hundred different missions in mind. You know from survey. Treasure hunting, you know, right up to, you know, mission critical, unmanned. Gonna put putting a vessel in harm's way where you don't want a sole on board. Absolutely. Yeah, it's it's very, very impressive. I I thank you guys for the opportunity to sit on this. Really. I I think that everybody without special knowledge could handle something like this by the distance.
