Thieves can no longer rely on their hot-wiring skills to steal boats.

May 1, 2004

Thieves can no longer rely on their hot-wiring skills to steal boats. Ultimate Security Systems Corp.'s Power Lock II is an upgraded system that attaches permanently to a vessel's starter motor and can't be circumvented by cutting and jumping ignition wires. Upgrades include marine-compliant cabling for all data lines and a special coating treatment for the patented solenoid module. This device won't affect electrical or ignition systems or existing security systems, and it doesn't void any warranties. Prices start at $266.
