One system, from the anchor light to the air conditioning
Below is everything we can bring under a single control. You will not want all of it, and nobody starts with all of it — but it is here so that nothing looks omitted.
Everything you touch aboard, under one system
Lighting, climate, security and entertainment — and the machinery nobody thinks about until the day it fails.
And the rest of her — which is usually what earns the system its keep:
Cameras that know the difference between a person and a gull
An alarm that fires every time a wake rolls through the marina is an alarm you mute in week two. Ours run their detection aboard and tell you only when something is genuinely worth knowing.
- Cameras in every space you want covered, and all the way round the deck
- Detection runs on the boat: a person on the passerelle raises an alarm, a gull on the pulpit does not
- Somebody steps aboard at three in the morning — your phone knows before they reach the saloon door
- Recording kept aboard on your own storage, not on somebody's subscription
- Deck lighting, interior lighting and the horn can answer an intrusion by themselves
We install the equipment; you operate it. This is not a monitored security service and nothing here reaches a control room — see clause 17.4 of the Terms. If a camera can see the pontoon or a neighbouring boat, §8 of the Privacy Policy explains what that makes you responsible for.
The switch panel becomes a piece of glass
On a boat of this age the most dated thing aboard is the row of toggle switches by the helm. The second is having to walk to the engine room to find out what is running.
- A flush wall panel in the saloon, the cabins, the galley — wherever you want one
- A tablet that lifts out of its cradle and goes up to the flybridge with you
- A screen at the helm showing the whole boat, not only the plotter
- Fitted into the existing joinery, and into existing apertures wherever one exists
The original switches stay and keep working, unless you ask us to remove them. On a boat that is usually the right answer: one that obeys only a screen is one you cannot use when the screen is flat.
She answers the phone, in the marina or from home
Aboard, it saves you walking the length of the boat. From four hundred miles away in February, it is the reason you sleep.
- The same application aboard and from the other side of the continent
- Heating, air conditioning and hot water on, hours before you arrive
- A notification the moment shore power trips or a bilge pump runs twice
- Give the yard, the cleaner or a guest access for a week, then take it back
Remote access needs a connection aboard. If she has none we fit one — 4G, marina Wi-Fi, or both, with each falling back to the other. Everything aboard keeps working without it; the connection is only what lets you see her from far away.
The part that pays for the whole system, once
A boat spends most of her life alone. Nearly everything expensive that happens to her happens while nobody is aboard — and nearly all of it announces itself hours before it becomes serious.
- Water leak detection in the bilges, under the galley and at every seacock
- Bilge pump run counting — a pump that ran four times last night is a message
- Motorised seacocks and valves: close them from the pontoon, or from home
- Fire and smoke detection in the engine room, the galley and the cabins
- Temperature aboard — below freezing in February, thirty-five degrees in August
- Battery state, charger and shore power, watched continuously
None of this replaces the equipment she is required to carry, and none of it relieves her master of anything. It is an extra pair of eyes, not a watchkeeper.

Something missing? Ask. If it can be switched, measured or sensed, it can almost certainly be brought in — and if it cannot, we will tell you why rather than quote for it.
An installer fits the functions a manufacturer thought of. We write yours.
This is the difference between a set of connected devices and a system. Every one of these is a sentence somebody said to us about their own boat, turned into something she now does by herself.
The heating comes on, the water heater starts, the fridge drops to temperature, and the cabin lights come up to a low warm setting as you step aboard.
Lights off, audio off, the circuits that do not matter drop out, the alarm arms, and the seacocks you nominated close behind you.
Your phone tells you, with the water level and the run count, long before the third time becomes a problem.
Deck lighting comes up, the cameras record, and you get a still of the passerelle — while a gull landing on the pulpit is ignored.
She tells you, sheds the loads that do not matter, protects the batteries, and starts the generator if you allowed her to.
The saloon dims, the television and projector go off, the screen rolls up, the cabin lights follow you aft — and every bilge and smoke alarm stays wide awake.
Not one of these came out of a manufacturer's menu of scenes. They are written for your boat, and rewritten whenever you change your mind — which everybody does, in the first month.
Tell us about her
Ten minutes in the quote wizard tells us enough to put a real number on it. No technology questions — just the boat, and what you would like her to do.
The first two steps cost you nothing. No sales visit, no newsletter.
