RELIABILITY GUARANTEED THROUGH EXTENSIVE TESTING.
Over 10,000 boaters trust us, have slept more peacefully, and some have saved their boats by taking timely action after an anchor watch alarm.
At Zenkou, we have our own 43-foot sailboat that enables us to perform over 100 anchoring test days annually in diverse weather conditions and network availability. Currently located in the Western Mediterranean, our boat frequents highly populated anchorage areas where anchor space is extremely scarce.
We have a qualified tester program where experienced skippers who frequently anchor contribute their experience. If you spend more than 60 days a year at anchor and would like to contribute to and benefit from this program, contact us today!
