"I received an alert when trees took out the power near the marina."

“I was able to get to the boat and reduce demand to preserve house batteries. Power was off for 3 days. I’m really pleased with the BRNKL and recommend highly.”

Nolan B

“This is a must-have for anyone that keeps their boat in the water.”

“I’m sitting in my nice warm house drinking a coffee and checking on my boat at the same time!”

“Having a BRNKL security system on my boat puts my mind at ease.”

“Having the ability to monitor and track your boat via the app on your phone is great.”

Brendan Morrison

Former NHL Hockey Player

“I haven’t had a dead battery since installing BRNKL on my boat.”

“I would be in a rush getting back to the dock and forget to plug in shore power. Now I get a notification if my batteries are getting low.”

Willie Mitchell

2-Time Stanley Cup Champion
Partner, Tofino Resort and Marina

“Lovin’ my BRNKL during this cold snap.”

“One look at the app tells me my heaters are doing their job and the shore power is working.”

Mike T.

“It’s nice to be able to monitor this without having to go to the boat in a storm!”

“I’ve been a regular user of the BRNKL vessel monitoring system on my sailboat for over 18 months. I have found the ability to real-time monitor bilge activity and battery levels reassuring, also to confirm that the boat is still tied up at the dock!”

Howard M.

“We have been in 6 countries so far and BRNKL worked well.”

“We had to restart our cell phones in Portugal to get our phones online but did not need to do anything to get BRNKL online as we crossed borders.”

Yannick

“We just had our system installed and it has already alerted us of a power disconnect.”

“Somehow our electrical cord wiggled out of the socket during the our last wind storm. Now we have a regional power outtage and we were alerted by BRNKL before our marina notified us. Thanks BRNKL!”

Frequently Asked Questions

What is BRNKL?

BRNKL (pronounced ‘barnacle’) is like a home security system for your boat that provides three primary features:

Security: Capture camera images from your boat. Take photos on demand or automatically when a door opens, motion’s detected, or other triggers.
Monitoring: Monitor up to 4 battery banks, shore power, bilge activity, and external sensors. Internal sensors include temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, pitch, heel, and impact.
Global Connectivity: Cross borders without replacing SIM cards or other configuration hassles. BRNKL operates on a global cellular network.

How does BRNKL work?

BRNKL has a built-in SIM card that allows the device to communicate over a global cellular network.

The BRNKL is generally installed behind your circuit breaker panel or at the helm of your boat. This is where your existing battery monitoring, bilge switches, and shore power connections are located. BRNKL connects to those existing connections in order to monitor the health of those systems.

What can I monitor?

BRNKL’s built-in capabilities include:

Camera
Battery bank monitoring (up to 4)
Bilge monitoring (up to 4)
Shore power monitoring (requires an additional accessory)
Cabin temperature/humidity/barometric pressure
Pitch/Heel
Impact

Additional external sensors can be purchased including:

Door/window sensors
Pressure mats
Keyfob and siren

Will I get a notification from my boat?

Yes. Notifications will arrive to your cellphone, tablet, and/or smart watch during an event on your boat. You can also enable e-mail notifications as well.

Can I install BRNKL myself?

Absolutely. If you are comfortable with 12V electronics, the BRNKL installation will take you between 2-4 hours. Our instruction manuals and videos can be found at https://help.brnkl.io.
