Just thought I would share this. I decided to try out a GPS tracker on one of my boats. I didn't do a whole lot of research but ended up with this guy from Amazon:


About a year of battery life, though I opted for the 12v version so it should stay charged at all times.

$48 and same day shipping. $120 for services for one year, which includes 10 minute intervals. You can go cheaper or more expensive depending on your interval needs. Install took about 10 minutes. Set-up on website about the same (this included setting up Geo-Fencing).

I will get a good test of the GPS tracking tomorrow. And Update tomorrow.

I thought for less than $200 this is great piece of mind for me.

That’s great. Seems like lots of cargo trailers being stolen these days. If I had one this would be on it!

This looks sweet. I used to have a 3G Trackimo tracker, but thats a paperweight now that 3G is dead. $10/mo is palatable to me, some of the other devices were a good bit higher.

Lightning Deal and a 10% off coupon available right now, so was only $25.
