Safety and security are the main concerns of leisure boat owners. At times when the boats are moored and left unattended, particularly during winters there is a risk of boats getting unmoored and drifting away. To deal with these challenges, boat makers are investing in the Internet of Things (IoT) technology that would help curb the instances of boats suffering from internal damage and sinking.


IoT allows appliances, physical structures, vehicles, smartphones, wearable devices, and heavy equipment to connect and share data with each another via the Internet, thereby augmenting the security factor, enhancing the accuracy, and increasing the efficiency by digitizing and optimizing critical functions.
