YachtPilot Expands Sensor Offerings Through Strategic Partnership with Yacht Devices
YachtPilot (www.yachtpilot.co) is pleased to announce an exciting new partnership with Yacht Devices (www.yachtd.com), a leading NMEA-based marine sensors and equipment provider. This collaboration enables us to significantly expand our range of supported modules while introducing a seamless and user-friendly approach to NMEA sensor integration within the Yacht Pilot ecosystem.
At YachtPilot, we leverage the NMEA network to collect real-time data from various points across a vessel, ensuring accurate reporting to centralised cloud systems. Our advanced monitoring and cloud solutions are only as effective as the data they receive. By partnering with Yacht Devices, we are making it easier than ever for vessel owners to enhance their onboard monitoring capabilities with pre-configured, ready-to-install sensors, even for vessels that may not have had these monitoring solutions pre-installed by the manufacturer.
Enhanced Sensor Integration for Smarter Monitoring
Through this partnership, YachtPilot users can conveniently purchase and integrate Yacht Devices sensors to enhance onboard data collection and automation. These sensors seamlessly connect with the YachtPilot cloud platform, offering new levels of insight and control over vessel operations.
Justin Derry, founder of YachtPilot, highlights one of our latest innovations: integrating Bilge Pump alarms and sensor tracking using the Yacht Devices Run Indicator Sensor. This device has been pre-configured for effortless installation on any vessel, allowing existing bilge pumps to send real-time activation data via the NMEA network directly to the Yacht Pilot system. This means no more installing additional switches or pumps in your bilges that could be impacted by water ingress.
Unlike traditional monitoring solutions that require additional hardware or entirely new pumps, the YachtPilot Bilge Pump sensor can monitor up to four different pumps and sensors simultaneously, eliminating the need for multiple independent sensors. This approach reduces complexity while leveraging existing onboard infrastructure, simplifying installation and lowering costs for vessel owners.
Comprehensive Sensor Bundles & Buying Guides
To further support our users, we now offer sensor bundles and detailed buying guides that help vessel owners determine the best configurations for their needs. Our expanded catalogue includes engine monitoring, bilge alarms, battery monitoring, and environmental sensors, all seamlessly integrating with the YachtPilot network.
No additional hardware is required for vessels already equipped with NMEA-compatible sensors—our system can automatically detect and read these sensors, ensuring a smooth and efficient setup.
Global Availability & Fast Shipping
YachtPilot is committed to making these advanced monitoring solutions accessible worldwide. We maintain a stock of Yacht Devices sensors and modules at our Australian distribution centre, ensuring fast and reliable shipping to customers worldwide.
This partnership represents a significant step in our mission to simplify and enhance onboard vessel monitoring. Whether you’re looking to improve safety, streamline operations, or gain deeper insights into your vessel’s performance, YachtPilot and Yacht Devices have you covered.
