Yacht Sentinel acquires tender monitoring firm TowPro
Yacht Sentinel, a Paris-based provider of smart marine monitoring and security solutions, has announced its acquisition of TSM Systems (TowPro), a company specialising in tender monitoring systems for superyachts. The integration of TowPro’s technology into Yacht Sentinel’s product range reflects a strategic move to enhance safety, security, and convenience for boat owners and operators.
TowPro offers towing and tracking systems that provide real-time monitoring and protection of tenders towed by superyachts. These systems utilise VHF and Iridium satellite technology to reduce the risk of loss or damage during towing. Yacht Sentinel says it plans to incorporate TowPro’s capabilities into its broader suite of monitoring products.
“We are excited to welcome TowPro into the Yacht Sentinel team,” says Romain Devismes, CEO of Yacht Sentinel. “This acquisition aligns perfectly with our vision to revolutionise the marine industry through innovative technology. Together, we will offer unparalleled solutions that meet the evolving needs of our customers.”
Ian Leigh, managing director of TSM Systems, adds, “Joining forces with Yacht Sentinel opens up new opportunities for our technology. We share a common goal of enhancing safety and convenience on the water, and I am confident that this partnership will drive significant advancements in the industry.”
TowPro’s existing customers will continue to receive support, with plans to introduce additional features and services in the future.
