  • GPS antenna
  • Adhesive tapes
  • Mounting screws
  • “Protected by Vanemar” sticker
  • Quick start guide (user manual)

Your first view of the boat starts here.

Location and connected-battery monitoring are built into the Gateway. Start without additional sensors; activate Vanemar Connect to check these readings and receive alerts while you are away.

  • Check where you left it.

    Open the map to check your boat’s position at its berth, or follow its track when it is underway. Journey history lets you revisit a completed route.

  • Give its movement a boundary.

    Set a geofence around your mooring or marina. If the boat crosses that boundary, an alert lets you know it has moved beyond the area you chose.

  • Check the battery before heading down.

    See the voltage of the 12/24 V battery powering the Gateway. For another battery bank, add a separate Battery Sensor so you can monitor it independently.

POWER AND DEVICE SECURITY

Keep watch over the Gateway, too.

A disconnected power cable or a device being removed deserves attention of its own. The Gateway monitors these changes alongside your boat’s everyday readings.

A power cut does not mean an immediate shutdown.

A power cut does not mean an immediate shutdown.

If the Gateway loses its external DC supply, its internal battery keeps it operating and it can report the power loss. This monitors the Gateway’s own supply; use a Smart Plug on a shore-powered outlet to monitor shore-power loss separately.

Know if the monitoring device is disturbed.

Know if the monitoring device is disturbed.

The Gateway can detect an attempt to remove or physically tamper with it and raise an app alert. This gives you a reason to check the installation or ask someone nearby to inspect the boat.

A connection for when you are away. Options for when you are aboard.

The built-in SIM removes the need to arrange a separate mobile line. Vanemar Connect supplies the cellular service, cloud access and remote alerts; a local wireless connection is available near the Gateway.

Away from the boat: built-in cellular.

Activate Connect in the app to use the Gateway’s integrated SIM. Remote monitoring works wherever supported cellular coverage is available; you do not need an onboard router for this connection.

Away from the boat: built-in cellular.
Vanemar Gateway: Wi-Fi as a backup.
Offline: recorded now, synced later.
Nearby: check over a local wireless connection.

ROOM TO GROW

Build around the places you want to check.

Choose the next sensor by the question you want answered: is there water in the bilge, has a hatch opened, or how is the other battery doing?

01ADD ONLY WHAT YOUR BOAT NEEDS

One Gateway. More of your boat in view.

Start with the built-in readings, then add monitoring where it matters to you.

Add a Water Sensor for a separate bilge, Entry and Motion Sensors for access points and cabins, or a Battery Sensor for another battery bank. For engine and tank readings, connect a Vanemar NMEA 2000 Adapter to a compatible onboard network.

Plan around your boat’s layout A single Gateway supports up to 20 wireless sensors directly. Distance and metal partitions can affect reception, so check each location before fixing a sensor in place.

  • Add sensors individually as your priorities change.

  • Extend coverage with a powered Smart Plug or compatible VMBS2 Battery Sensor.

  • NMEA 2000 readings depend on the data supplied by your onboard equipment.

Additional sensors and the NMEA 2000 Adapter are sold separately. Network extenders must remain powered.

INSTALLATION AND SPECIFICATIONS

Three steps to your first boat check.

Connect the hardware, finish setup in the app and confirm the readings before leaving your boat.

  • 1. Connect and secure.

    Follow the installation guide to connect the Gateway to a 12/24 V DC supply and secure it in place. Ask a qualified marine electrician if you need help with the wiring.

  • 2. Set up in the app.

    Stay near the Gateway and follow the Vanemar app’s setup prompts. Allow the app to use your phone’s local wireless connection and enable notifications, then activate Connect if you want remote monitoring.

  • 3. Check before you leave.

    Confirm that location and battery readings update. Set your geofence and notification preferences, then test the relevant alerts before relying on them away from the boat.

BEFORE YOU ORDER

A few practical details.

Plan the hardware, service and installation for your boat.

What should I budget for beyond the Gateway?

The Gateway is a one-time hardware purchase. For remote monitoring, budget separately for Vanemar Connect, which you activate and manage in the app. Add sensors only for the extra areas or equipment you want to monitor.

Can I use my own SIM card?

The Gateway uses its built-in SIM, with cellular service provided through Connect. It cannot be replaced with a personal SIM, so there is no separate operator contract to arrange.

Do I need a Battery Sensor for the battery powering the Gateway?

No additional Battery Sensor is needed to view that battery’s voltage. Add one for each other battery bank you want to track separately, such as a starter battery.

What should I check before fixing everything in place?

Follow the Gateway installation guide, then verify its location reading and internet connection. If you add sensors, check reception in each intended position before mounting them permanently, especially across metal partitions.
