Company Profile

Graytronics was formed in 1987 by Bob Gray, producing intercoms for rally cars and offshore powerboat racing; they soon became the choice for almost all of the offshore racing teams. Shortly afterwards Graytronics were approached by the Ministry of Defence, after successful sea trials Graytronics were supplying intercoms for the Royal Navy RIBs and fast interceptor crafts. Due to the increased demand from the MOD and other defence agencies, the production of powerboat racing intercoms was put on hold.

As Graytronics grew, more engineering resource was required and as a result, Nathan Ablott joined the company in 2004. After a few years gaining experience with Graytronics, Nathan took the lead on restarting production of powerboat racing intercoms. Shortly afterwards the ownership of Graytronics transferred to Ultra SML Technologies, and Nathan was able to acquire the technology licence for the Graytronics Powerboat Racing Intercoms leading to the formation of Boat Intercoms Ltd. in 2008.

With the knowledge and skills gained at Graytronics making systems for a wide variety of water-based agencies, Nathan is now leading a small team of specialists servicing the marine intercom market under the name Boat Intercoms Ltd. based at Burton upon Stather in North Lincolnshire.
