How about buy and use a better alarm system? One that watches for high
water in the bilge, explosive atmosphere, carbon monoxide, fire, close
targets on the radar. Big ships are so insistent about keeping track
of such things, that they have someone on watch, with some sensors,
the radar, the view out the windows, all that good stuff. And
instructions to call the captain when in doubt. A good alarm cuts out
the middleman and calls the skipper itself.

You just posted advice in another thread about mast wiring
connections... saying that it was best to keep things as simple as
possible.

But in a complex way!
