With Ositech’s CellFlex solution, the Hel-Cat II Crew is able to schedule fishing trips without inconvenience to customers

For the largest steel party boat in New England, staying informed about the upcoming weather developments is all about safety

Guelph, Ontario, May 15, 2003: Skill, good luck and perfect weather conditions, all contribute to a perfect fishing day or night. Skill can be taught, good luck just happens, and the weather can be planned around if armed with the right tools. Access to the latest online weather reports using a cell phone, a laptop and Ositech's CellFlex solution takes the guesswork out of planning a fishing trip.

Brad Glas and his son are part of the Hel-Cat II Crew that specializes in organizing fishing trips in the largest (114’ in length) steel party boat in New England. The Hel-Cat II was designed and built by Brad Glas, combining all his extensive previous boat design and building experience. Even though the boat can withstand almost anything, access to up to date weather data is paramount to avoiding risky weather situations where passenger safety might be jeopardized.

During the months of June to October, Brad Glas and his team bring fishing enthusiasts to areas where striped bass and bluefish can be caught. During the winter trips, catching 40 lb. cod is not a fishing story, but a reality. Before wireless Internet solutions became prevalent, fishing folks occasionally had to turn their boat around when the weather changed suddenly, wasting valuable time and fuel.

Brad Glas from Hel-Cat II has chosen Ositech’s King of Clubs wireless Internet connection kit as a reliable solution to access marine weather reports and weather buoy data sites. During fishing expeditions the Ositech solution is used several times per day to access online weather reports as “the weather in New England is fickle at best during the winter and spring,” according to Brad Glas. With Ositech’s CellFlex, Capt. Glas has online access to weather information from wherever his Nokia cellular phone works.
