Protecting your boat from gull droppings and damage

If there is one annoyance on a boat, it is the presence of birds and their inevitable droppings. Not only are they unsightly to say the least, but they also attack varnish and other gelcoats. Not to mention the attempts to steal our meals, which happen so frequently. We would like to introduce you to the Big Boggle, an ecological and economical scaring system.

Bird scaring solutions, whether based on noise, flashes of light or movement, are often dependent on an external source. Wind, batteries or fireworks, all require maintenance and are not always available.

Random motion system

The Bird Boggle solution mixes several modes of action. Its spinning wheel will frighten birds by evoking movement. The LEDs at the end of each branch will be visible to the birds at night. And by the crew members on board the boat, way to avoid being woken up by a shock with the device.

And it's completely self-contained and silent. Powered by a battery that is itself recharged by solar energy, the BirdBoggle scare system ensures that your boat is clean and that seagulls won't land on the deck.

To avoid that the birds get used to the rhythm of the movements, the triggering is random and cyclic. Independent of the wind, the movement will take place even without help from the wind.

The system can be installed on any element of the boat, whether it is a guardrail, a stanchion or a die, thanks to the fixing clamps with which it is delivered. In case of blockage or impact with an obstacle, the system will automatically change its direction of rotation, thus avoiding damage to the gears and belts it contains.

No inconvenience to neighboring boats

Silent thanks to the ball bearings, the Bird Boggle does not trigger any annoyed reaction from your pontoon neighbors on summer nights. Finally, the LEDs are switched on when the light is detected and only start at dusk, avoiding unnecessary battery consumption.

Economical and ecological

The BirdBoggle is an important ecological element, as it does not use any chemicals or other devices. It does not produce any waste or discharge into the environment, while ensuring that your boat will remain clean and free of bird droppings as much as possible.

Made in Europe, the Bird Boggle is available in 3 versions. The first kit allows a mounting on the die, with a simple clamp. The second kit allows mounting on the bridge, by drilling. The third one, finally, offers both options. They are respectively proposed at 149 euros, 159 euros and 169 euros on the manufacturer's website.
