Comprehensive system lets users track, monitor
and remotely control up to 5 switches on their vessel from
virtually anywhere
Garmin® International Inc., a unit of Garmin Ltd. (NASDAQ:GRMN),
the world’s leading marine electronics manufacturer1, today
announced its new OnDeck™
System, a remote monitoring and management solution that
gives boaters 24/7 access to critical and timely information about
their vessel2. When paired with the ActiveCaptain® app, OnDeck
keeps users connected to their vessel by monitoring the boat’s
battery status, bilge activity, door/hatch sensors, GPS location
and more. For extra peace of mind, configurable notifications can
even let the user know of changes that may threaten the boat,
including if it has moved into or outside of a custom geofenced
area. In addition to the GTB 10 OnDeck Hub, the system includes a
door sensor, temperature sensor, shore power sensor and relay
switch.

“OnDeck is a comprehensive vessel monitoring and management tool
designed to deliver important information about your boat directly
to your fingertips, so you’ll always know that it’s safe, secure
and ready for your next adventure,” said Dan Bartel, Garmin vice
president of global consumer sales. “A practical solution for every
type of boat, from center consoles and bass boats to sailboats and
trawlers, our customers can feel more confident monitoring and
protecting their investment with an OnDeck System onboard.”
Track, Monitor and Control
- OnDeck provides 24/7 access to boat data via an always-on
connection with 3G/4G coverage (subscription required)2.
- Users can remotely monitor the vessel’s information from wired
sensors, including battery voltage, NMEA® 2000 data, activity of
bilge or saltwater pumps, shore power, temperature and door/hatch
sensors that can be used to detect and notify of boat entry. Alert
and notification parameters for these systems can be
user-configured and personalized to the owner’s preference.
- With OnDeck, users will be the first to know if a security
sensor has been triggered, or if the boat has been moved. Its
internal GPS sensor updates every 15 or 30 minutes, depending on
power status, and will send text or e-mail alerts2 to users if the
boat has been moved into or outside of the custom geofencing
area.
- Users can remotely view and control up to 5 switches on the
vessel, and can ensure certain onboard systems are ready when they
step onboard to go out.
Simple, Secure and Private
- Integration with marine electronics through the Garmin Marine
Network, engines and NMEA 2000 sensors allow OnDeck to seamlessly
integrate into a Garmin marine system. OnDeck can also be used as a
standalone system, no multi-function display (MFD) required.
- All data received from a boat’s OnDeck system is securely
recorded and collected through the GTB 10 OnDeck Hub for immediate
viewing; the data is also available in the cloud for 30 days.
- Up to 48-hour internal back-up battery allows access to OnDeck
after the boat battery is depleted or the power is
disconnected.
- Status notifications and alarms are transmitted via email or
SMS messages to any registered individuals.2
The OnDeck System is compatible with the GPSMAP® 84/8600, GPSMAP
74/7600, GPSMAP 10x2/12x2 and the GPSMAP 7x2/9x2/12x2 Plus series.
OnDeck is available now for $849.99, and a subscription plan is
required. Two subscription plan types are available:
- Monthly Plan: A flexible plan for $19.99/month allows for
cancellation at any time.
- One Year Contract: Users who sign up for a yearly contract will
