GOST® (Global Ocean Security Technologies), a world leader in marine security, tracking, monitoring and video surveillance systems, announced today a groundbreaking partnership with DuraBrite, a leader in high-reliability lighting solutions with a storied 50-year heritage in designing mission-critical power electronics. This collaboration was unveiled at the recent Palm Beach International Boat Show, marking a significant leap forward in the integration of cutting-edge lighting and security solutions for yachts.

This strategic partnership will see DuraBrite supplying state-of-the-art lighting components to enhance GOST's comprehensive security systems. DuraBrite was chosen from a vast pool of lighting companies for its exceptional military-grade reliability and its successful track record in deploying solutions for high-profile applications where failure is simply not an option. Its products are trusted by the entire fleet of the NYPD Harbor Unit, USCG vessels, the Secret Service, the Air Force, and Blue Origin, all organizations that rely on the brand's commitment to quality and performance under the most demanding circumstances.

DuraBrite's expertise in thermal management, EMI mitigation, and advanced luminaire architecture, coupled with its background in military electronics, positions it uniquely in the marine lighting sector. The company's products are designed to ensure maximum safety, visibility and return on investment for yacht owners.

"Joining forces with GOST is not just about bringing together two leaders in their respective fields, it's about redefining what's possible in yacht security and lighting," said Michael Morris, President of DuraBrite. "Our shared commitment to exceeding customer expectations is what makes this partnership so powerful. Together, we're setting new standards in the marine industry."

"GOST is enthusiastic about working with DuraBrite, anticipating numerous potential applications such as long-range SOS signaling and the integration of IR capability into their lights, effectively increasing our night vision capabilities by ten times," said Jay Keenan, President and CEO, GOST. "Of particular interest to GOST is DuraBrite's rich background and expertise in engineering solutions for mission-critical applications for military and aerospace where replacement is impractical and sometimes even impossible. This mirrors the durability requirements of GOST's products built for extreme terrestrial conditions."

The integration of DuraBrite's lighting solutions with GOST's security systems promises to deliver a synergy that enhances the safety and efficiency for yacht owners and operators. This means access to a comprehensive security and lighting solution that ensures their vessels are protected and illuminated, providing peace of mind and a superior experience.
