Reviews and testimonials

Sentinel offers the best solution for monitoring my boat. I tried out several other products and chose Sentinel because of its functionality and a very good app. The accuracy and speed are amazing! With Sentinel it's like having my boat in my pocket. I can check all data at real time and Sentinel will keep my boat safe when i'm not on it. Nejc

Besides standard information like boat position and battery voltage we are also monitoring the anchor fuse. Sentinel team helped us configure this custom setup. Those of you working in customer service will appreciate being informed about the problem well in advance. By the time the concerned skipper gives you a call you already have a solution at hand. Thank you Sentinel!!!
