The Growing Threat of Watercraft Theft

Watercraft theft remains a significant problem across the United States. According to The National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB), approximately 14 watercraft were stolen every day in 2016, totaling 97 per week or 421 per month. Theft patterns follow seasonal trends, with spring and summer months seeing the highest activity. July recorded the peak with 612 thefts, while February saw the fewest with 251 incidents.

Beyond Traditional Security

While various security systems exist on the market today, few offer the same level of protection for the cost benefit as GPS tracking solutions. MotoMon's tracking platform provides an enhanced level of security that can be accessed anytime and anywhere you have cell phone coverage, giving owners peace of mind whether their vehicles are in storage, at the marina, or out on the water.

Instant Alerts When It Matters Most

MotoMon's tracking application combined with premium GPS tracking device – like the SmartBox – creates an ideal solution for monitoring your watercrafts. The system responds to threats within seconds, detecting when your boat or Jet Ski is being towed, when the ignition is switched on, when it leaves a preset geofence boundary, or even when the battery runs low.

The moment the device records an alarm, the application acts instantly, triggering multiple notification methods including email, alerts to central monitoring stations, or text messages to mobile phones. This immediate response capability can mean the difference between recovering your vehicle and losing it permanently.
