Accidents Avoided

  • BilgeBuddy detected our broken float switch while at the dock giving us plenty of time to fix and prevented a costly accident later. The high water sensor even pumped the water out for us until we could replace the primary.

  • BilgeBuddy has detected critical issues on our boats in FL while we were up north! The device detected a bilge pump partially clogged with fishing line and a battery unable to hold a charge for even a few hours.

  • I keep my boat in the water year round, even in the winter. Using the BilgeBuddy app I detected a broken heater during a cold winter spell and was able to save my freshwater systems and prevent the bilge from freezing.

  • The BilgeBuddy is working awesome. Last night temperatures went as low as 9 degrees and the BilgeBuddy kept me up on the temps on the boat. It also picked up a power spike on the shore power. The app is easy and a joy to use. Thanks for such an awesome product!

Why BilgeBuddy?

  • Affordable: Better data, better insights and more alerts for much less (get started at $350 vs $500-$1000 alternatives).

  • Proactive: Know you have an issue before you start taking on water.

    • Patented technology enables proactive bilge system failure alerts compared to reactive water level monitoring of alternatives.

    • Our high water sensor doesn’t just tell you you’re sinking when the float switch fails, it turns on the bilge pump and gets rid of the water.

  • Easy installation: No more snaking wires. Patented technology produces the same insights from single device compared to expensive multi-sensor wireless systems or hard-to-install hardwired sensor systems. Especially when your batteries and pumps are spread out.

  • Accessible: Owned, engineered, assembled, developed and supported in the USA.
