| New Monimoto 9 GPS Tracker Secures Boats and Outboard Motors Against TheftData Indicates Fewer than 10% of Stolen Boats are Recovered July 21, 2025 - Police agencies across the United States have identified boats and outboard motors as a frequent target of thieves, a disturbing trend for fishermen and fans of water recreation. Designers of high-quality GPS trackers like the new Monimoto 9, have proven that the protection provided by a GPS-equipped tracker ensures that owners can be immediately notified of unplanned movements of a boat and that law enforcement agencies can quickly act to make sure that owners are protected from criminals. Boat Theft is Nationwide ConcernWith the rising cost of boats and outboard motors, theft is a significant concern for boat owners. BoatsU.S. research indicates that only one stolen boat in ten is ever recovered, and in most cases, stolen boats are stripped of everything of value. The study notes that most boat owners do little to protect their boat, often making them easy targets for thieves. In a recent article, Betterboat.com stated "outboard motor security is an important precaution that's being somewhat overlooked by unsuspecting pontoon boat owners." "Boaters are passionate and theft of a family's prized possession can be devastating," said Monimoto co-founder Bruno Rimkunas. "Preventing thefts with locks and ensuring a swift recovery with a GPS tracker is the best solution for every boater. Monimoto devices are proven solutions to ensure that a boat stays safe, and if taken, it's returned quickly before damage can occur." Monimoto 9 is Designed with Boaters in Mind The Monimoto 9 tracker is the newest generation of the company’s high performance security tracking products and is a perfect solution for protecting a boat, no matter what size or where it is stored or moored. The Monimoto system uses both cellular signals and GPS tracking capabilities to deliver real-time location data when the tracker senses a theft taking place. The updated app and tracking platform give owners full access to the information needed to recover their boat or motor.Monimoto technology ensures that the tracker does not alert from the typical motion of waves near a pier, but only from more significant disruption or movement. Monimoto’s proven technology works on all types of vehicles. The boat owner's key fob automatically arms the system when the fob moves away from the tracking device, a small waterproof unit that is hidden in the boat or outboard motor. If the tracking device senses movement, the system immediately notifies the owner via a phone call. At that point, the Monimoto app provides detailed location data that can be shared with authorities to prevent theft or facilitate a quick return of the boat, motor or trailer. The tracker is easily hidden as it weighs only six ounces and is only 1.5 inches by 3.5 inches, and does not require professional installation. It's waterproof and dust proof, making it a great solution for boaters. The Monimoto 9 features a rechargeable battery (one year charge), The company expects to release a hard-wired version, which can be hard-wired into the boat's electrical system, in Q3 of 2025. The Monimoto 9 retails for $169 and may be purchased at boat retailers, from Monimoto , delivers “peace of mind” for owners of motorcycles, boats, scooters, golf carts, ATV’s and e-bicycles.
