So my 2001 340 came with the standard CO monitor above the Galley (which I probably need to replace), and I supplimented with the standard home plug in style (with battery backup).
Like many boaters I also have dogs onboard and frequently have the generator running while I'm either in the water, on shore. The standard alarms are nice if your on the boat but I can't hear them that far away.
This year I added a Nest CO/Smoke detector to my boat that connects through my verizon hotspot (always on the boat). when I'm away from the boat, at the bar, or just on shore I usually have a phone (or my wife does) and the NEST can notify me through their App that the CO/Smoke detector is going off so I can get back to the boat. I'm sure parents would like this as well if they leave their kids on the boat in a similar situation.
Thoughts? Any others doing this?
