now in stock and available from Hamble Marine Ltd......

Chip and Trace RFID Boat Identification Device  

Chip and Trace is a unique miniature chip that can be hidden anywhere in your boat, yacht, trailer, outboard and expensive electronic equipment.

The stolen boats with Chip and Trace will have details automatically added to the watchlist through our database, which is viewed regularly by Police Authorities, Marina Owners, Harbour Masters and Sailing Club.

If the boat is spotted, the owner will be notified by email, to enable details of RFID chip location to be passed to the “finder”, after verification of “finders” identity.

The RFID chip will then be scanned to provide conclusive proof of ownership.

The benefits of Chip + Trace...

Low cost peace of mind, secure in the knowledge that if your vessel is stolen it can be traced

Hard to find miniature chip provides a secure identification with its unique 10 digit tag number

The position of the Chip is known only to the owner

All details uploaded to The Watch List when theft occurs

All Members of Chip and Trace will receive an email informing them of the theft  

All vessel details including photographs of boat, owner details, address and contact details stored on a secure password protected online database

Watch list is viewable to all including Law Enforcement Agencies and Harbour Authorities  

Your boat can be traced by its unique identification tag and you can be contacted

You can change the colour, sails, interior of a vessel, but unless you know the exact position of the Chip (which is extremely unlikely), you will not be able to change the proof of identity.

Local authorities can scan the area where the chip lies and identify the boat is yours

At present, most Authorities have these scanners and we will be issuing them to Marina Operators & Harbour Authorities as required.

Available in 2 versions:

• Chip Pack for self-installation for only £10.00 (inc postage and VAT)
• We can carry out the installation and registration of details on Database for £30.00 (inc postage and VAT)
