Catching an intruder on your boat

[timmygobang]

Ok so here's what I'd do, buy one of these and set it up on the inside of the boats companionway, so not to fry helpful fellow boaties who come to tend to your unsheeted boom and so forth.

We carry Anti Aggression mace, in a gel form, as the spray stuff is subject to wind direction, asking an intruder to stand down wind might not work out!

Very interesting. Anyone know what this means?

Bear Shock is not approved for food storage in the lower 48 states.

So let’s see:

We need a gadget on the boat that is activated when some 'oik' steps into the cockpit; it rings you and says "I'm being burgled", at the same time it sets off a bright light and the CCTV camera, the sign on the hatch needs to read "Look up and smile you are on CCTV" and finally an old Northen Lighthouse Board fog horn in the boat should they get passed all that.

Perhaps a new business opportunity for 2012

There is another version that is approved for what they term food storage see here:-

It is interesting to us (and I await howls of protest about going OTT) because we will be cruising in bear country. There was a very good article in Passagemaker magazine about a Grand Banks that dragged anchor in a thunderstorm squall and went stern too on the beach in the ICW. When towed off next morning the tow boat operator asked if they had bears bothering them in the night, as it was a common occurrence. I have made plans a) to switch anchor type and go bigger b) to have any burglar alarms switched on even when well out in the boon docks c) to sleep with an AK47. (That is a joke guys.....)

I had no idea bear shock would spark so much interest perhaps its not such a crazy idea after all
