CELLTEC, manufacturer of computerized marine battery monitoring systems, has just introduced its high-tech CELLSTAT SW1 Marine Battery Switch that monitors battery and alternator performance—and even warns of failure before it happens.
Containing a microprocessor using a patented System-on-Chip technology, the SW1 performs a load test on the battery at every engine start and monitors alternator output and the level of battery charge. Bright, multi-colored LEDs on the monitor's face display the test results. A Master Warning Indicator with light and audible alarm is included for remote mounting at the helm or other location.
The CELLSTAT SW1 is constructed of UV-resistant nylon and can be easily surface-mounted in or near the battery compartment. The monitor's modest power consumption in standby creates an insignificant battery draw...

The Bridgenorth Bailer is a 3-in-1 telescopic boat hook. Whether docking, launching, retrieving or mooring, the Bailer is a must have for boaters.
The pump seal is made of real leather and can be adjusted with pliers through one of three slots in the locking device. Unlike twist-lock hooks which can accidentally unlock when extended, the Bailer's patented three slot locking system secures the pole at any length...

The Foretrex™ 201 is a wearable Personal Navigator™, perfect for outdoor and marine enthusiasts who desire hands-free GPS navigation in a lightweight, affordable package. At a mere 2.75 ounces, this waterproof wonder is lighter than most watches, and its wrist-top mount frees up hands for outdoor activities. Sporting an ergonomic wristband, the Foretrex 201 is similar in design to the Forerunner 201, yet is chocked full of GPS navigation features found in Garmin's popular Geko 201 unit.
With a user-friendly interface, the rugged Foretrex 201 simplifies navigation. Its six dedicated buttons (GoTo, Page, Enter/Mark, Up, Down and Power) make it easy to operate. It offers the most essential navigation data — enhanced GPS accuracy, extensive storage for waypoints, and reversible routes and tracks — on an easy-to-read display. Don't worry about packing extra batteries, because the Foretrex 201 runs on an internal lithium battery for 15 hours (typical use). Simply recharge and go...

The Dock A Reni is an innovative yet simple plastic finger that attaches to your existing boat pole with Elastic Velcro and makes docking easy, safe and secure. By Placing the line over the end of the boat hook and then under the Dock A Reni a loop is formed which can easily be placed over a piling or a cleat.
Somebody should have thought of this along time ago. Here's a picture.....

ColorLight was founded around the development of the ColorLight marine searchlight family. It is a totally new technological concept for professional marine applications such as: Navigation/Maneuvering, Search and Rescue, Oil Spill Detection and Helicopter landing. Since start 1996 the ColorLight models have entered onboard about 20 various types of vessels sailing around the globe and the concept is respected by mariners.
The white light performance is outstanding in distance, light value and light beam area. The entire unit swivels up/down and back/forth via a remote control.
The UV-light (blacklight) adds extraordinary valuable features in poor visibility conditions as darkness, fog, rain and snow. Flourescent coated markers, life preservers and other objects can be identified at much greater range in these conditions than traditional white light. In addition, the "blacklight" emits a "beam" that can focus on one object at a great distance...

FloatRail is an interesting method to protect boats from sinking. It is installed inside a small rail just above the water line or hidden in a recess of the hull during boat manufacture.
The complete system is fully patented. It is manufactured from marine grade materials of modular design with scalable architecture. The system is activated manually or automatically. A patented automatic float switch is installed inside the hull. When a boat takes on water and it reaches a preset level, the hydrostatic pressure of the water trips the mechanical valve, which automatically deploys the system.
The FloatRail electronic control system supplements the basic automatic mechanical system. The electronic control system provides self-diagnostics for reliability assurance. It also allows for multiple and redundant sensors and early warnings...
