Boat security
Submitted by Riles on Wed, 2013-08-28 20:24
G'day, I was seeing if anyone had any other security ideas for a boat parked in the front yard. Everything gets removed off the boat after every trip but I was trying to think of a way to stop people from creeping around (not that I have seen anyone doing it but I'm sure it goes on). The boat has a full cover and a trailer hitch lock but I was thinking of getting a wireless sensor door bell similar to this (http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com.au/viewitem?itemId=271230482354&cmd=VIDESC) and popping on the rear seat facing the zips. At least then if it tripped and I was home I could pop out to investigate. Just chasing people's thoughts and ideas.

I brought this setup and use
I brought this setup and use the IR sensors for my rear sheds , very impressed for a simple battery unit can be set for chime or alarm with the receiver 30m or so away in the house . Intruders may not hear the alarm but you will

If my tinny was visible I used to take off one of the trailer wheels and put it away, so it looked like I had bearing probs..it was only a 2 minute job to put the wheel back on again for a session.
