Introducing AutoTether

  • Simple Installation requiring no tools!
  • Sounds an alarm!
  • No more tangled lanyards!
  • Freely go anywhere on the boat!

  • Portable from boat to beach

AUTOTETHER™ is portable and is powered by standard AAA batteries that provide more than 100 hours of protection. Take it from the boat to the beach. If your child, wearing the personal sensor, strays more than 100 feet or goes in the water the alarm will sound.

AUTOTETHER™ brings boating safety to a new level.


What is AutoTether?

AUTOTETHER™ wireless lanyard system is an innovation in boating safety equipment that every boater should have!  Unlike traditional lanyard kill switches that come standard with boats and require the operator to be tethered to the boat, the AUTOTETHER™ boating safety device is an unobtrusive wireless unit that clips right into the emergency stop switch (kill switch).  It operates via a radio transmitter in a personal sensor worn by a person or pet that sends radio waves to a receiver connected to the boat’s emergency stop switch.  When the sensor is submerged in water, the signal between the transmitter and the receiver is instantly broken, because radio waves do not travel through water. AUTOTETHER™ activates the emergency stop switch which stops the boat’s motor. For added safety, should the operator or a passenger notice a potential danger, he or she can push the red alert button AUTOTETHER™ on the sensor to sound an alarm and stop the boat.

AUTOTETHER™ can accommodate a total of four wireless sensors – one for the boat operator and three for additional passengers, including children and pets.  Any passenger wearing the sensor who falls overboard will signal the boat to stop with the sound of an alarm. 

AUTOTETHER™ is easy to install.  It clips right to the boat’s emergency stop switch (kill switch).  The clip is connected via a short, coiled wire to a receiver that is mounted on the boat’s dashboard using 3M advanced dual lock strips.  No wiring or tools are required.  The system is self-powered via inexpensive AAA batteries, which are supplied with the kit.  They can provide up to 150 hours of service.  An indicator light on the transmitter illuminates when it is time to change the batteries.  (Battery life is dependent upon individual boater system usage.)

How Does it Work?

  1. Inside the AUTOTETHER™ sensor is a transmitter that sends radio waves to a receiver connected to your boat’s ignition system. Should the operator or a passenger wearing the AUTOTETHER™ sensor fall overboard, the signal between the sensor and the receiver is broken (radio waves do not travel through water).
  2. If the operator goes overboard the engine shuts off and an alarm sounds. This prevents a runaway boat and allows the operator to reboard the vessel.
  3. If a passenger goes overboard, the alarm will sound alerting the operator to return and pick up the passenger.
  4. The radio transmitter also works on distance; the sensors can transmit to the receiver up to a distance of 150 feet. Place a passenger sensor into a dinghy being towed, if it breaks loose the alarm will sound.
  5. For added safety, should the operator or a passenger notice a potential danger, just push the red alert button located on the sensor to sound an alarm and stop the boat.
  6. AUTOTETHER™ can be moved from your boat and taken to the beach! Use it there to notify you when your child (wearing the AUTOTETHER™ sensor) goes into the water or strays too far from the AUTOTETHER™ receiver you carry.

Installation is simple!

  • AUTOTETHER™ “clips” right to your ignition kill switch.
  • The clip is connected via a short, coiled wire to a receiver that is mounted using 3M dual lock strips allowing you to take the unit on and off the boat.
  • No wiring or tools needed.
  • The system is “self-powered” via inexpensive AAA batteries (supplied) that provide over 100 hours of service.
  • An indicator light on the receiver “lights” when it’s time to change the batteries.
  • Comes with many fitting adapters to fit your motors kill switch configuration.

How is this different than the others?

AUTOTETHER™ has other benefits over existing wireless devices.  Other benefits include:

  • AUTOTETHER™ is portable and can be used on any boat or taken to the beach or pool.  You can use it to notify you when your child, wearing the AUTOTETHER™ sensor, goes into the water or strays too far from the AUTOTETHER™ receiver. 
  • More freedom than a hard-wired kill switch which requires the operator to be chained to a boat’s ignition.
  • Less hassle than old-fashioned kill switch cords that can get tangled or caught.  An operator does not need to hook and unhook from the boat’s ignition.
  • Avoids having the engine make an unexpected stop at high speed because the operator accidentally disconnected the hard-wired cord from the boat’s ignition is a dangerous condition avoided with AUTOTETHER™.
  • Hard-wired kill switches protect only the operator.  AUTOTETHER™ protects others onboard, with one receiver serving up to a maximum of four sensors.
  • AUTOTETHER™ is fail safe.
