“We are thrilled to bring Siren Marine to Canada. The timing is
perfect as we grow our dealer network, enhance OEM relationships
and attract more marine customers into the Yamaha family than ever
before,” said Chris Hawkins, Senior Director, Marine OPE Sales
& Field Network, Yamaha Motor Canada. “Now, all of our partners
and customers can experience cutting edge Connected Boat technology
to enhance the ownership of our products and deepen connections
between customers, dealers and builders.”
Siren Marine’s flagship device, the Siren 3 Pro, is a patented,
third-generation remote boat monitoring and telematics platform
leading the future of Connected Boat technology. The Siren 3 Pro
operates over a global 4G/5G LTE cellular network with the option
to add SirenSat, an offshore antenna for customers who are not in
range of cellular coverage. Options for sensors include wired and
wireless as well as connection to the NMEA 2000® network.
The Siren 3 Pro is matched with the award-winning Siren
Connected Boat mobile app that combines real-time vessel security,
multiple and flexible boat monitoring and tracking functions, and
convenience features including remote digital switching.
Beginning in model year 2025, select KingFisher Boats will
feature Siren 3 Pro as standard equipment.
“We are dedicated to bringing the latest and greatest technology
to our boat buyers, so they have a unique, and premium ownership
experience with a KingFisher boat,” said Baxter Bolton, President,
KingFisher Boats. “We’ve been working closely with the Siren team
and testing the technology in our boats and are thrilled to be a
part of bringing it to the Canadian marine market.”
In addition, the Siren Connected app can personalize the boating
experience for customers, combining the branded look of their boat
builder with specific information curated especially for them.
KingFisher customers will have an entirely KingFisher branded app
experience, along with opportunities for custom content such as
owner’s manuals, videos and how to information.
Siren 3 Pro and the sensors are available to purchase from
Yamaha Motor Canada dealers starting May 1, 2024. The Siren
Connected Boat app can be downloaded for free on the Google Play
