How the BoatSafe Sentry Works!

BoatSafe Sentry FAQ

As boat owners we have a need to know what is happening on our unattended vessels. Do you live a distance from your marina making it impossible to visit the boat every day? Away on business for days at a time? Need to make a quick trip home while on a cruise? Thankfully technology has given us virtual eyes that can peer anywhere around the world – anytime we need to take a look. The BoatSafe Sentry can monitor your boat from bow to stern with real time status reporting through our secure, user-friendly website. The system constantly monitors multiple boat systems and sensors alerting you and others immediately to any problems through your cell phone and email.

Worldwide, wherever you connect to the BoatSafe Sentry website you can head off problems- restoring shore power before your batteries drain or arranging repairs on a broken bilge pump before your boat floods. Early detection can make an immense difference in boat maintenance. You can proactively fix a problem before it becomes an expensive repair or a huge mess. Our goal is to make sure your boat is ready for you when you are ready for your boat.

BoatSafe Models Include:

Basic/GSM
Our basic system requires a WiFi connection to transmit the Data. If your marina or anchorage does not have a WiFi connection, but you have cellular service you can purchase our GSM modem. GSM service is dependent on the availability of GSM cellular service, much like cell phones.

Satellite
Our SatSys communicator has a GSM card built in and it will automatically roll over to Satellite service when you lose GSM connectivity.
