Stealth Tracer: New GPS Tracker Fights Marine Theft

Rising marine crime is leaving UK boat owners increasingly anxious. With theft of boats, jet-skis, outboard engines and electronics costing an estimated £20 million–£60 million annually, protecting valuable assets has become a growing priority.

Cheshire-based entrepreneur Sam Brown-Allan has introduced Stealth Tracer, an IP67 waterproof GPS asset tracker designed to protect equipment on land or sea. It addresses a key problem with traditional trackers, which thieves can detect and disable using scanning technology.

Unlike standard devices, Stealth Tracer is self-installable and wire-free, using a unique interval-based reporting system that keeps it dormant between transmissions. This “sleeper” design makes it difficult to detect while still offering strong tracking capabilities when needed.

Through the free Stealth Tracer app, owners can customise how often the device reports its location. If theft is suspected from a designated ‘Safe Address’, users can activate Theft Mode for real-time tracking, with updates sent to the Stealth Sentinel 24/7 monitoring team.

Stealth Tracer is fully Thatcham S7 certified, meeting rigorous industry standards for theft recovery. It offers a cost-effective, easy-to-install alternative to expensive professional systems or Bluetooth tags that rely on close-range connectivity.

Retailing at £249, Stealth Tracer includes access to Stealth Sentinel — a professional, 24/7 monitoring and recovery service working closely with law enforcement. This coordinated approach improves the chances of recovering stolen assets safely, without putting owners at risk.
