1. A system for remote diagnostics of crafts, the system comprising: a local system with a software interface programmed to operate in the processor of a computer wherein the software interface includes at least one element selected from a group consisting of an operation service center, an operational center, a third party notification system, a device maintenance center, and a telematics center;a communication system for transferring data using a communication protocol connected to the local system; andat least a remote craft connected to the communication system, the craft having a remote integrated device with an antenna and at least one of a telematics connected to an operating element,wherein the software interface is programmed to send data to and from the at least one telematics via the remote integrated device using a communication protocol, and wherein the data is processed by the local system, further comprising a remote software interface located in a processor on the at least a remote craft, and wherein the local software interface and the remote software interface each are programmed to include a module to alter the flow of the transferred data over the communication system, and wherein the module is selected from a group consisting of a security interface, an encryption interface, and a compression and data management interface. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the communication protocol is a protocol associated with the transit of data taken from a group consisting of a wireless protocol, a GPS protocol, an internet protocol, and a communication system protocol. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the software interface includes at least two elements selected from the group. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the software interface includes more than two elements selected from the group. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein the operating element is selected from a group consisting of a command, a generator, a drive, an auxiliary equipment, a power supply, a cargo, and an information system. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the remote integrated device includes more than one telematics each connected to a different operating element, and wherein the software interface is programmed to send data to and from at least both telematics. 7. A method for the remote maintenance of a craft, the method implemented using a system including a local system with a software interface programmed to operate in the processor of a computer, a communication system for transferring data using a communication protocol connected to the local system, and at least a remote craft connected to the communication system, the craft having a remote integrated device with an antenna and at least one of a telematics connected to an operating element, the method comprising the steps of: conducting an analysis of the information received from the telematics directed to the operating element to which the telematics is connected, the information received via the remote integrated device;initiating an emergency repair signal as abnormal values are observed by either directing the craft to a location for repairs as no remote user maintenance and repairs using telematics can be initiated; andinitiating a subsequent analysis as the values are normal but out of range by either directed the craft to the location for repairs or to initiate enhanced monitoring procedures of the craft. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the method further comprises a step of storing the data and perform regular remote maintenance operations as the values are normal and in range. 9. A method for the remote control of a craft, the method implemented using a system including a local system with a software interface programmed to operate in the processor of a computer, a communication system for transferring data using a communication protocol connected to the local system, and at least a remote craft connected to the communication system, the craft having a remote integrated device with an antenna and at least one of a telematics connected to an operating element, the method comprising the steps of: receiving abnormal value from the telematics or an external warning from the communication system requiring taking the control of a craft;initiating control of an information control system onboard the craft by the remote integrated device;displaying at the display of the information system information received via the communication protocol sent by the local system with the software interface programmed to operate in the processor of the computer; andusing telematics to initiate action on the operating element. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the method further comprises a step of notifying a third party of the change in display on the craft as no action on the craft is required using the communication system. 11. The method of claim 9, wherein the telematics are used to either immobilize the craft or to direct off road the craft. 12. A method for the optimization of maintenance of a craft, the method implemented using a system including a local system with a software interface programmed to operate in the processor of a computer, a communication system for transferring data using a communication protocol connected to the local system, and at least a remote craft connected to the communication system, the craft having a remote integrated device with an antenna and at least one of a telematics connected to an operating element, the method comprising the steps of: determining regular intervals between regular craft maintenance by the local system with the software interface programmed to operate in the processor of the computer;conducting an analysis of the internals of the vessel by the telematics connected to at least an operating element by the local system with the software interface programmed to operate in the processor of the computer;determining by the local system with the software interface programmed to operate in the processor of the computer the type of maintenance needed based on the analysis; andcoordinating the remote craft and determining the optimal maintenance needed based on a programmed route of the craft by the local system with the software interface programmed to operate in the processor of the computer. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the method further comprises a step of altering the route to a new maintenance port to minimize displacements of the craft by the local system with the software interface programmed to operate in the processor of the computer. 14. The method of claim 13, wherein the new maintenance port is notified in advance using the communication system.
