Pro + RetroRecVIN Water solves the unique challenges of water-based recreation.
When water equipment washes ashore or is found adrift, authorities need to determine if someone is missing. A drifting kayak or SUP could mean someone is in the water. RecVIN lets anyone scan the equipment with a phone and instantly contact the owner to confirm they're safe — potentially preventing a full Coast Guard search and rescue deployment.
Dive shops manage hundreds of BCDs, regulators, and tanks across multiple boats. RecVIN tracks each piece of gear — who rented it, when it was last serviced, and its maintenance schedule. Scan on checkout, scan on return.
E-foils cost $5,000–$12,000+. A permanently embedded RecVIN creates an unforgeable identity tied to the original purchaser. If stolen and resold, any buyer can tap and verify legitimate ownership before purchasing.
