Wireless smart man overboard system


Recommended Posts

I saw a review of this and it seems like a really good idea for many boaters. It allows about 50’ of free movement on a boat before triggering a man overboard engine shutdown.

Autotether looks like a similar concept, but the part you wear or keep on your person is huge compared to the Fell Marine product. I think I’d probably get tired of wearing something so large and eventually it wouldn’t come out of the cabin. The Tiny Fell Marine device is something I think I’d habitually use.
