The HMAS Canberra Project
In 2009 Sealite was commissioned by Parks Victoria to provide navigation aids for the Ex. HMAS Canberra.
The decommissioned frigate was scuttled off the coast of Barwon Heads in Victoria, Australia on the 4th October 2009 and converted to a wreck diving site and artificial reef.
Sealite IALA special mark ocean buoys and lanterns were the perfect solution for marking this new marine hazard, with 4x Poseidon-1750 1.75 m diameter buoys and 2x Nautilus-2200 2.2 m diameter buoys with LED lanterns positioned around the site.
The Poseidon-1750 buoys, installed as boundary markers around the Ex. HMAS Canberra site, were fitted with Sealite SL70-CS 2-3 nm+ solar marine lanterns which come with wireless RF flash synchronisation. When lanterns flash in synchronisation they can be more clearly distinguished from other navaids and confusing background lighting.
The Nautilus-2200 buoys, installed at either end of the wreck site, were fitted with Sealite's SL125-GPS-GSM 5-9 nm+ solar marine lantern system. These lanterns were fitted with GSM remote monitoring and control capabilities enabling Parks Victoria to access real-time diagnostics data and change the lantern settings via cell-phone or PC interface. In addition, GPS flash synchronisation ensures clear visibility of these navigation aids by mariners at night.
As with all Sealite marine navigation products, the new navaids off the coast of Barwon Heads will ensure years of reliable service and ensure the safety of mariners in and around Port Philip Bay.
(The wreck was opened to the public as a dive site on 5 December 2009)
