Before purchasing tender monitoring this season - check the functionality behind the current products being sold.

Because in tender and chase boat monitoring, it’s not the box or the brand that protects the asset —it’s the capability behind the specific product you have purchased. Check with new versions.

Before accepting a quote, Captains, Engineers and insurers/ brokers should check and be clear:

1. Proprietary communications link
Is it a dedicated, private system — or reliant on AIS, Wi-Fi, mothership internet or cellular?

2. Bilge & battery monitoring
Does it monitor critical onboard conditions — or just position?
Water ingress is usually the lead up to tow failure. It’s so important to monitor.

3. Live distance BETWEEN tender and mothership
Can it actively track separation during tow in real time?

4. Real-time updates
Are alerts pre-emptive (seconds)… or delayed (minutes)?
Time is critical.

5. True offshore capability
Does it function properly and quickly away from shore — where losses actually happen?

If any of these are missing, it may not meet what insurers originally agreed to. Or truly protect the tender.

The consequence isn’t theoretical — it’s a lost tender, charter, a failed tow, or a rejected claim.

We built Yacht Trace alongside insurers and have kept it aligned with what they actually require. From day one, the goal was a fair, transparent price point — without stripping back the capability that matters.

Yacht Trace Tender Monitoring - Real-world use. Real-time decisions. ⚓

Superyacht Norma Jean
Out on the water going north from the Caribbean with a Boston Whaler — running live with the Yacht Trace Tender Monitoring System.

This is exactly why Yacht Trace was developed.

Not just to track a tender…
…but to actively monitor, protect, and inform while it’s in use and on tow.

👉 In this video you can see:
• Live distance from the mothership
• Instant movement awareness
• Continuous vessel status updates
• Fast, pre-emptive alerts via private RF (no AIS, no cellular)

Because when you’re running a tender — especially at distance or under tow — things don’t go wrong slowly..

And basic trackers or AIS simply don’t give you the speed or system awareness to act in time.

Yacht Trace:
✔️ Two-way communication without needing to board with bespoke options
✔️ Works offshore anywhere with Globsl tracking
✔️ Monitors bilge, battery, and movement in real time
✔️ Designed alongside insurers to support towing at night, extended distances, and offshore operation

This is about giving captains clear, immediate information — so decisions can be made before a situation escalates.

⸻

🎥 Thanks to the Captain for sharing this — great to see Yacht Trace working exactly where it matters.

Palma Boat Show — last day

This industry still reminds me of walking through Marrakesh when you’re new…
Exciting, noisy, a bit chaotic — and everyone knows it.

Then something shifts.
People recognise you.
They start to engage then want to collaborate.

We’ve taken a different route — self-funded, building steadily, backpack not suitcase. The tortoise wins the race.

Thank you to everyone who visited the stand, supported us, and stopped for a chat (or a drink 🍷). Really appreciated.

Also spotted a new show “dance”…
the magazine shuffle — people quietly moving their own magazines to the front of every rack 😂
A little pink vs blue battle going on. Ours in the Tenders & Toys supplement seems to have disappeared fast…

Great few days — lunches, events, and a lot of good conversations. Thanks for Sarah. Isle of Man.

It’s a small industry. People see what’s real.

Good luck to everyone starting out

Palma International Boat Show this week ⚓
Exciting news for us — the Captain of MY Lalabe is joining our ambassador panel, and we couldn’t be more pleased.
Joining Ronny Roskosch and Bryan Antill 🙌

Also, 4 more yachts at the show also have Yacht Trace systems onboard — with one just 50m from our stand and using the system for over a year… maybe we should test the range from the stand to the yacht 🤣

Real Captains. Real yachts. Real reviews a year later.
That matters more than quick sales or flashy marketing.

📍 Stand RR18�Refit Area — Superyacht Village entrance, just down from the Village Square.
Come by for a chat, a drink, and a sit down.
DM to arrange a meeting.

Yacht Trace — simple, affordable prevention with no gimmicks.
✔ Self install under 1 hour�✔ No cutting in�✔ Insurer-recognised�✔ Real-time alerts�✔ Designed for Captains and crew

MY Lalabe is special to us too. Triple winner BOAT International Design & Innovation Awards

We supplied the Captain last year with our insurance approved, plug and play, tender monitoring system— and now he is an ambassador. We couldn’t be more pleased.

For a first year in business, having our system onboard a multi-award-winning 35m Van der Valk before her debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2025 meant a lot.

The system was already installed, tested, and in use — not just for show.

These things take time. We don’t name yachts unless we’re told, and we don’t rush reviews.�So hearing from the Captain yesterday was a great moment.

In this industry, not everything can be shared — but when we do share, it’s real.�Captains you can speak to. Systems in use a year later with happy clients.

We’re building this properly. People behind the brand!

📍 Palma next week — Refit Area (Superyacht Village entrance) Come and see us.

What if your a tender monitoring system could do more than protect assets…
What if they could also contribute to ocean science?

Great to meet with The International SeaKeepers Society this week — a collaboration we’ve been developing for over a year and now getting closer to reality.

We’re exploring how our Yacht Trace Tender Tracking and Monitoring System could support real-world data collection at sea — including seabed mapping — during normal operations.

No extra crew.
No disruption.

Just smarter use of time already spent offshore.

Yachts operate where few research vessels can.
So the opportunity is already there.

We’re excited about this one.

If any captains are interested in getting involved — get in touch.

We love great feedback and the continued support from our clients.
Our latest client had this 👇 to say after a self-install… (This project actually came from a recommendation by another captain who installed the system over a year ago — something we’re seeing more and more.)

“Dear Deborah and Dan, Today we tested Yacht Trace from the mothership, simulating a potential towing scenario by moving both the bilge sensors and the unit on the tender to observe how the roll and pitch values change. It seems that the system is working very well! I’m attaching a few photos. May be next week I will contact you to discover some new details about advanced using. I’d like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Easter.”

What stands out isn’t just that the system is working — it’s the confidence from crew and their willingness to engage, test, and share real-world feedback.
When clients feel genuinely valued and invest in a system that delivers — strong value, practical support, real innovation, and insurer recognition — that trust naturally follows.
You’ll often see us sharing images and videos from yachts, shipyards, and towing operations. That’s because our clients stay in touch and actively contribute to showing how the system performs in real conditions.
It’s not staged. It’s operational. It shows trust.
We’re also proud to have ambassadors who are happy to put their name to the product. .roskosch

Yacht Trace is built to act before tender damage or loss becomes a problem.

The new TM02 system keeps what works - and strips out what slows you down.

⚓ 7 reasons crews and yacht owners are making the switch:

1. No integration or cutting complications - installation takes less than an hour. Swap it to the next yacht with ease.

2. Live GPS tracking with global coverage, smart geo-fence between the tender and mothership, and a direct RF link give early alerts - not late news when things have already gone pear shaped!

3. Stop risk before it builds. Bilge activity alerts, battery and vessel health monitoring - flagged in real time, so crew act early, not under stress.

4. Run it from the bridge. Two-way communication lets you monitor and control key systems on the tender without leaving the bridge.

5. Keep cover in place. Built with insurers in mind for night towing and extended distances.

6. Competitive, transparent pricing and no install fees.

7. Bespoke add-ons to monitor what matters for your vessel.

This is not just track and leave. YachtTrace is built for real use at sea.
