Bristol Fleet Text Message Program
Bristol Fleet (bristolfleet.com) is operated by Bygone Fisherman LLC.
What the program sends
Bristol Fleet is a fleet management platform for Alaska commercial fishing, used by seafood processors and the fishermen who deliver to them (Bristol Maps is its companion mobile app). Bristol Fleet text messages are operational notifications only: when a fish delivery is scheduled for you, when a tender vessel is on site or approaching, and notices about your account. They are sent to fleet members (fishermen) and seafood processor staff who have turned text messages on themselves. There is no marketing or promotional content.
