ChainSense
Anchor chain counter and NMEA 2000 anchoring solution.
ChainSense turns your existing windlass into a connected anchoring system. It measures chain or rode deployment, publishes information on NMEA 2000 and works with SenseServer for anchor position, geofence monitoring and remote alerts.
OLED and phone access
A local OLED provides immediate status while SenseServer makes anchoring information available by phone, tablet or computer.
Position and geofence
Store the anchor drop GPS position, define a geofence and receive email/SMS anchor-drag alerts through SenseServer.
DESIGNED FOR REAL BOATS
Add intelligence to the windlass you already own.
ChainSense senses existing windlass Up/Down controls and gypsy movement without interrupting normal operation. Chain-per-revolution, fixed chain, anchor position and geofence parameters turn simple deployment measurement into a connected anchoring tool.
