This was raised in another thread and I thought worthy of discussion. Some yachts go to a great deal of trouble to put in good security systems. The availability, choices and prices have dropped. Yet, in the 30' to 70' range which is where most here are, you see very little.
I'm not just talking cameras. What about intrusion detection? Sirens, even to the point of being unbearable and chasing away? Lights, even to the point of those that are strong enough to scare away and/or incapacitate? Smoke, too thick to go through? Or just something to alert you? Many houses have some form of "burglar alarm" but not many boats it seems in the 30-70' size range. And this isn't to say cameras aren't part of it. Even cameras and speakers so you can speak to the intruder.
I see people comment worried about theft, talking about needing weapons to fight potential intruders, but what is being done to prevent intruders.
And why is more not being done?
