Speeding up the web presentation

Set up your browser for faster internet connection by disabling the website illustrations

If you are browsing the internet from a vessel in open sea, you may not have a very fast internet connection. Our web site may then respond slowly due to the images and illustrations we have used.

You may try to use another browser. Lots of people claim that Firefox and Opera provide a faster user experience. Both these browsers are free.

However, you may also choose to disable the images and illustrations on our website. This will offer a "text only" presentation, and it will be considerably faster than the "normal" website. Please observe the procedures below for the three most popular browsers.
