Only 1 in Every 10 Stolen Watercraft is Recovered
Protect Your Boat Dealership
Our annual State of Security report shows that crime is at the top of mind for business owners, and boat dealerships are no exception. In 2024, there were two men caught in a multi-state theft ring of pontoon boats, and 2021 saw a man finally get caught after stealing over $700,000 worth of goods from marinas and dealerships.
This theft and vandalism can cause chaos for boat dealerships who have to deal with the aftermath of such criminal behavior. Fortunately, Pro-Vigil offers 24/7 monitoring and deters 97% of crime before it happens.
