Barrow International To Develop European Distribution Network
For Wireless Boat Security Systems Supplier Paradox Marine
See At METS 2008 – Stand 03.108
Fort Lauderdale, Florida (USA) – Paradox Marine has appointed Barrow International to develop and support the European distribution network for the company’s wireless boat security, tracking and monitoring systems. Based in Lymington, UK, Barrow International has over 30 years experience in leisure marine industry distribution, dealing with premium products from some of the world's leading suppliers.
At METS (Marine Equipment Trade Show) 2008 (Stand 03.108) in Amsterdam November 18-20, Paradox Marine will feature Marine Magellan Insight, a new and unique wireless security, monitoring & surveillance system with GPS satellite tracking.
“Insight includes all the components necessary to help protect a boat and keep an eye on exactly what is happening onboard at all times,” said Jay Keenan, Paradox Marine’s Vice President of Sales & Marketing. “Our new system will send a snapshot or video clip to the user’s account which is accessible on any mobile phone with internet access. The owner will see what the camera sees when motion is detected and it also allows the owner to login and view streaming video off the boat on their computer or cell phone. In addition, the system notifies a boat owner or captain if there’s high water in the bilge, low battery voltage, loss of shore power, smoke or intrusion. If the boat is moved without authorization or stolen, Insight will send a message every 15 minutes with the vessel’s speed, heading, latitude and longitude and distance to closest city,” he added.

Paradox Marine Introduces New Wireless Boat Security,
Monitoring, Surveillance & GPS Tracking System At NMEA 2008
SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA (USA) – At the 2008 National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA) convention in San Diego, CA today, boat security systems supplier Paradox Marine introduced Marine Magellan Insight, a unique wireless security, monitoring & surveillance system with GPS satellite tracking.
“Insight includes all the components necessary to help protect a boat and keep an eye on exactly what is happening onboard at all times,” said Jay Keenan, Paradox Marine’s Vice President of Sales & Marketing. “Our new system will send a snapshot or video clip to the user’s account which is accessible on any mobile phone with internet access. The owner will see what the camera sees when motion is detected and it also allows the owner to login and view streaming video off the boat on their computer or cell phone. In addition, the system notifies a boat owner or captain if there’s high water in the bilge, low battery voltage, loss of shore power, smoke or intrusion. If the boat is moved without authorization or stolen, Insight will send a message every 15 minutes with the vessel’s speed, heading, latitude and longitude and distance to closest city,” he added.
Connected to the internet through the Ericsson W25 or the Tellular SX7T, Insight provides complete access to a boat from any computer with internet access or through a web-enabled mobile phone. The system has full GPS tracking through the new Inmarsat IsatM2M network, and will report alarm notifications from anywhere in the world. When in wireless range, the Insight will report alarms with a voice message, and/or email, and/or SMS text message and allow owners to view live video feeds off the boat.
Owners and captains have a personalized, password-protected web page to view live images from onboard cameras and archived footage from triggered events. (The Insight DVR adds the ability to record and store 30 days of video from 4 onboard cameras.) The page also displays vessel status, alarms that have occurred and a complete history of events. Onboard security can be armed or dis-armed and AC/DC accessories can be controlled remotely via the internet connection.

Nav-Tracker 2.0 Locates Stolen Boat In The Bahamas
Contender Recovered By US Coast Guard 12 Hours Later
Fort Lauderdale, Florida (USA) – A 34-foot Contender equipped with the Nav-Tracker 2.0 wireless boat location and GPS tracking system from Paradox Marine, stolen from Marsh Harbor in the Bahamas around midnight last Wednesday (September 17) local time, was located by the system and recovered in the vicinity by the US Coast Guard about 12 hours later.
When a Nav-Tracker 2.0 transmitter is mounted discreetly on a boat, a wireless ‘fence’ with a 500-meter range is created. If a boat is moved outside of this fence, Nav-Tracker 2.0 uses Inmarsat based GPS satellite technology to monitor a boat’s location and notify up to four people by email and/or text message every 15 minutes with the latitude/longitude, speed, heading and distance to the closest city.
As many as 27,000 boats are stolen annually and the odds of recovery are only about 1 in 10, according to the International Association of Marine Investigators. “Alarms and other deterrents are not enough. However, with a Nav-Tracker on board, if your boat is stolen, you’ll have a much better chance of getting it back,” said Jay Keenan, Paradox Marine Vice President of Marketing.
The message transmitted from Nav-Tracker 2.0 on board the Contender when it was stolen would have been similar to this:
Message From Nav-Tracker 2.0
User: Paradox Marine
Asset: M/Y Island Time
Fleet: ETI
Date/Time: 2006-07-25 15:06:28 (EDT)
Event: Geo-fence breached;
Location: 26.05767,-80.1303.3 (0.75 mi NE of Hollywood, FL 33019)
Speed/heading: 9.2 Knots, 144 deg

Some insurance companies now require GPS tracking devices to be installed on certain types of boats, including high performance boats and boats with triple high-horsepower outboards.

New Analog To Digital Converter From Paradox Marine
Allows Internet Viewing Of Onboard Yacht CCTV Surveillance Images
Fort Lauderdale, Florida (USA) – Boat security systems supplier Paradox Marine has introduced a analog to digital (A/D) converter to enable yacht owners and captains to view images captured by onboard CCTV surveillance cameras over the Internet.
The new A/D converter (inset in photo at left) connects to the Paradox Marine WatchMate yacht monitoring system, which enables monitoring of conditions on board from anywhere on a PC or mobile phone with Internet access.
“Many boats already have surveillance cameras on board, but the signal is analog so there’s no way to view the images remotely. Our new A/D converter solves this problem,” said Jay Keenan, Paradox Marine Vice President of Sales & Marketing.
Marine Watchmate, introduced at the Miami International Boat Show earlier this year, allows users to watch live video of their yacht, be alerted if temperature rises above a pre-set level, if water is detected in bilge or living areas, if motion is detected in a private area, or even if the yacht loses shore power.
The system is virtually plug n' play and easy to set up.
Marine Watchmate features:
• Cameras for live video monitoring from anywhere (cabin & deck available)
• Water sensors for bilge and living areas
• Temperature sensors for salon & engine room
• Motion & door sensors to secure your yacht when you're away
• Power controls for lighting, HVAC and appliances
• Sirens alert you when sensors are triggered
• Battery backup alerts you when shore power is lost
• Provides internet access for remote email

Keep Track Of Your Tender With Nav-Tracker 2.0 TenderTAG
400 Foot Range For Unique Wireless Leash
Fort Lauderdale, Florida (USA) – Boat security systems supplier Paradox Marine has introduced Nav-Tracker 2.0 TenderTAG, an enhanced model of its Nav-Tracker 2.0 wireless boat location and GPS tracking system. TenderTAG activates an alarm when a tender is separated from the master craft, which can happen if a tow line breaks, the tender sinks, or it’s stolen.
When a Nav-Tracker 2.0 TenderTAG transmitter is mounted discreetly on a tender, a wireless ‘leash’ with a programmable range from 100 to 400 feet is created. The Nav-Tracker 2.0 receiver on board the boat or yacht will not only alert you if the leash is broken - with the flick of a switch you can also disable the tender’s engine. An additional switch is available to remotely turn on the tender’s navigation lights for night time towing.
Nav-Tracker 2.0 uses Inmarsat based GPS satellite technology to monitor a boat’s location and notify up to four people by email and/or text message every 15 minutes with the latitude/longitude, speed and heading if it is moved outside of a “geo-fence” with a 500-foot radius. The system will also send several daily status reports.
A message from Nav-Tracker 2.0 would look like this:
