Siren Marine revealed today the newly upgraded Siren Connected Boat mobile app, now featuring integration with Yamaha outboards and control systems. It also has the ability to personalize the boating experience.
“Through Siren Connected Boat, Yamaha and Siren offer never-before-seen innovation and benefits that allow boat owners to ‘be’ on board their boat even when they can’t be in person,” said Andrew Cullen, director, connectivity, Yamaha U.S. Marine Business Unit. “The app is designed to put everything a customer needs to know about his or her boat at their fingertips. It also gives them the ability to leverage Siren technology and all the benefits of remote connectivity, security and monitoring.”
The new app will be available for download in the US on February 15, 2024. For boaters who already have a Siren Marine system, the app will update seamlessly on their mobile devices on this date. The new app is free for basic service, but requires installation and activation of a Siren 3 Pro main device and cellular service. Siren 3 Pro system hardware starts at $797 with cellular plans as low as $18.75 per month.
Features will include real-time vessel security, multiple and flexible boat monitoring and tracking functions, and conveniences such as remote digital switching. Through the mobile app, boaters have access to and the ability to control all of these features from their smartphones or smart watches.
Perhaps the biggest news is that Siren can now integrate with Yamaha’s Command Link Plus which enables the app to automatically remind boaters and their preferred dealers about scheduled maintenance requirements and due dates based on actual engine use, as well as maintenance records for the boat as updated by either the servicing dealer or the DIY boater.
There is also a new low power mode that extends battery life during times when full functionality is not needed, such as during winter storage.
Boat dealers have the ability to install Siren 3 Pro devices on site. What’s more, some boat builders now offer Siren 3 Pro as standard equipment on select boats. The builders include Grady-White, Regulator Marine and Skeeter.
Siren 3 Pro is a third-generation remote boat monitoring and telematics platform that operates over a global 4G/5G LTE cellular network with the option to add SirenSat, an offshore antenna for customers that leave cellular coverage. Options for monitors sensors include wired and wireless, as well as connection to the NMEA 2000 network.
