Ratings and reviews

The app and the bildge buddy device is great! Once you have it set up it really gives you peace of mind. Not only am I using it to keep an eye on my bildge and batteries it also serves as an anti-theft device and a collision device if someone runs into your boat when you're not there.

This is an excellent product at an affordable price. A few years ago we arrived at the marina to find the bilge and cabin full of water. A hose had sprung a leak and the float switch must have failed at some point. After that incident I found bilge buddy when searching for a monitoring solution. The bilge buddy system has multiple failsafes to alert you when any part of your bilge pump system needs attention. Well worth it for the peace of mind.

I've had good success with BilgeBuddy. I live 700 miles from my boat and love knowing my battery voltage and any bilge pump activity. It also works like an anchor alarm that notifies you via your phone if your boat moves out of chosen radius. Good stuff. Works well on my android.
