About Us

NightWatch Industries is committed to producing the highest quality monitoring systems available to the maritime industry.  With every system, our goal is to combine dependable state-of-the-art data acquisition with superb artistic design.   We support each of our products and are proud of our excellent long standing customer relationships.
 

President.  NightWatch Industries was founded in 1999 by Norman Dahl, a self-described “Silicon Valley dropout gone to sea”.  Lured from his electronics business in California, he has traveled a good part of the world’s oceans.  While serving as project manager for yacht construction, Norm decided to combine his extensive knowledge of electronics with his vast experiences at sea to create the concept of NightWatch Industries.  Having held a 1600 Ton Master’s license for many years, he began designing the type and quality of equipment he has sometimes found lacking on vessels he has operated.  As head of research and development, Norm continues to use his expertise to bring  innovative technology and creative design to NightWatch.

Vice-President.  Taylor Dahl grew up in the marine industry and has worked on boats with his father for as long as he can remember.  Taylor has been a part of NightWatch since it’s inception in 1999, merging his knowledge of electronics with his love of the sea.  In his role of senior project manager, Taylor supervises  the assembly and programming of NightWatch systems.  As  overseer of new system commissioning, as well as on-site upgrades to our older systems, he has visited marine centers from Europe to the Pacific Northwest and Asia. His insights into the ever-changing global marine industry have been invaluable in our product development.
