Greetings from Autotether, Inc. creators of the Autotether Wireless Lanyard!
The Autotether Wireless Lanyard system replaces the red cord with no more tangled lanyards. It comes with a personal sensor for the operator of the vessel and you can purchase up to three additional sensors for passengers including children and pets. If the operator falls overboard the motor will shut off within 1 ½ seconds or if a passenger falls in the water an alarm will sound. The Autotether uses cutting edge RF technology and is the only patented wireless lanyard on the market. The system is designed to fail safe.
Autotether works with the existing engine cut-off (kill) switch on your boat, requires no tools to install, becomes operational literally in minutes, and is easily transferred from boat to boat. Autotether is a high quality, well-engineered product at a reasonable cost and is designed and built in the USA.

My wife had a armload of boating gear and headed for the house. Seems I forgot to turn off the control unit which she had in that armload. I had the pfd mounted fob on the boat. Fifty feet away it snapped the kill then let loose with the alarm. Scared the heck out of her.
Thank You Autotether!

Autotether Wireless Lanyard....so easy a Caveman could use it.
Great product.
There are many souls that we have all read about this year that would not have lost their lives had they been using an Autotether Wireless Lanyard.

Autotether head unit in the purse or pocket, a FOB on each one of the kids.
Maybe reduce the number of idiots leaving their babies locked in parked cars. Or kids left at the rest stops on the Interstate.

Thanks to everyone for their replies! Just an update, Travelers Insurance sent out a press release yesterday announcing a new safety credit on boat insurance for owners with an Autotether. For a full copy of the release you can go to our blog http://autotether.blogspot.com/ .

Hi Andrea - Can you work on Progressive now?
Unfortunately we had another incident in our area that Auto-tether could have possibly saved a life.
Coast Guard suspends search for missing boater
Wednesday, August 19, 2009
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mark Portus has been missing for three days.
PASCO COUNTY (Bay News 9) -- The Coast Guard has suspended its search for missing boater Mark Portus.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission will continue searching Thursday.
Earlier Wednesday Portus' brother offered a $20,000 reward if someone is able to find him alive.
Mark Portus went fishing Monday morning and never returned.
The search continued Wednesday for the third day.
"We're going to make sure we put enough effort into this as we can," said Lt. Grant Burton with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. "The family deserves that. That's what we're going to do."
Portus' boat was found on a Sandbar north of Anclote Key with the motor still running.
He was wearing a light blue shirt and jean shorts so search crews are looking for that color in the water. The search area has also been expanded.
Burton says weather conditions have been on their side so far.
"The sun is good," he said. "The clarity is pretty good so I feel like we can cover a pretty good amount of area."
The Coast Guard is leading the search and rescue operation.
"The longer it takes to find him the longer he's out there," Burton said. "So we want to end this search as quickly as possible by finding him."
Portus' brother was also out on the water searching Wednesday.

We are working on Progressive and other agencies now. I'll keep folks posted. Thanks for the article. These accidents are getting more and more common, it really is frightening.
