Anchor watch by GPS - what do you use to wake you at all times if necessary

Drag into my boat because you anchored inadequately I guarantee there will be hell to pay. You'll be fully awake at least for a few minutes before I knock you unconscious. When you wake back up you'll still be dragging but you'll have to deal with while nursing a broken jaw. I believe in an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Wow - Wild West at its best :-) Marc I believe Capt Neil delivered a few too many flyers in his postal days. It's hard to believe a guy who decorates his boat interior with mauve could be such a hard-ass. |

That is what I use... no relay, low current... only problem... it is so
loud it scares the __ out of me and I usually hit my head on the ceiling.

They require very low amperage (~10-20mA) so you wouldn't even need a relay. You can find them with sound output over 100 db. which will wake the dead. Thanks for good advice - this seems to be the best way to go, and simple too. Marc |
