Meet Vanemar at IBEX 2026 in Tampa

We're proud to announce that Vanemar will be exhibiting at the International BoatBuilders' Exhibition & Conference (IBEX 2026), taking place October 6–8 in Tampa, Florida.

This marks our fourth consecutive year at IBEX, and we'll be back to show how our smart boat monitoring and security ecosystem keeps moving forward. You'll find us at Booth #3-741.

IBEX remains North America's leading technical trade event dedicated to boat building, design, and marine technology, bringing together thousands of marine industry professionals, hundreds of exhibitors from around the world, and a full program of educational seminars.

What You'll Find at Our Booth

At Booth #3-741, visitors can get hands-on with the full Vanemar Smart Boat Monitoring Ecosystem:

  • Vanemar Gateway: The central hub, built with onboard GPS tracking, global SIM connectivity, and tamper-alert protection

  • Wireless Sensors: Smoke, bilge, entry, and motion sensors that guard against fire, flooding, and intrusion

  • NMEA 2000 Boat Adapter: Seamless integration for monitoring engines, tanks, and batteries, and controlling digital switching

  • Fleet Panel: A powerful tool for fleet operators managing multiple boats with real-time visibility and alerts

What's New This Year

Alongside the core ecosystem, this year we're bringing two developments we're especially excited to share on the show floor.

Introducing Vanemar Wireless Cameras

Monitoring is only half the picture. Now you can see it too.

Vanemar is bringing wireless cameras into the system: your boat now sends you footage, not just data. A built-in PIR motion sensor detects motion, starts recording automatically, and sends you an instant notification. Their wireless, rechargeable design makes them easy to place wherever you need them on board.

Rated IP65 against dust and water splashes, the cameras are accessible right from the Vanemar App, alongside your boat's other sensor data.

Discover them for yourself in Tampa.

NMEA 2000 Integration: Vanemar Alerts Now Reach Your Multi-Function Display (MFD)

This is the update we're most looking forward to sharing in Tampa. With the Vanemar NMEA 2000 Boat Adapter, our system now integrates fully with your boat's NMEA 2000 network. That means your critical alarms and warnings — bilge, smoke, battery, and motion alerts included — now appear not only in the Vanemar App, but directly on your Multi-Function Display (MFD) at the helm.

You decide which alerts show up on your Multi-Function Display (MFD), right from the Vanemar App, and you can change that anytime based on how you use your boat.

Alongside this, our notification settings feature lets you choose which alerts you receive, and temporarily silence a repeated sensor alert without turning the sensor off.

See You in Tampa

Vanemar continues to grow from a wireless monitoring system into a complete boat monitoring and control platform. From small cruisers to large fleets, the goal stays the same: helping boat owners monitor their vessels more intelligently and safely.

All IBEX attendees are invited to stop by Booth #3-741.

Save the date: October 6–8, 2026, Tampa, Florida.
