Does Such A System Exist?

Hi all,
Been looking but cant find what I need which is a three camera set up to help me stern mooring (reversing) and generaly seeing what is behind me when out on the water due to no longer being nimble and mainly solo cruising now.

So need three 12v waterproof cameras with bluetooth connection as I really cant face removing interior panels to run cables 35ft thoughout the boat. I have a laptop running an app showing speed and location and being able to select 1, 2 or all three cameras at once would be a bonus.

Thanks for reading.

Bit of a faff but what about battery operated Wifi cameras but you would need to use a data connection from a mobile phone between your cameara's and your laptop and you’d need to charge the batteries now and then? If you have a 12v supply at the stern you may be able to use that to power them but probably still need the Wifi bit.

Thanks, have fuse boxes in the stern to supply power so would rather use that and Wifi around here depends on which way the wind is blowing so need another form of connection.

35 feet might be pushing it for Bluetooth.

Truckers use a single camera so it can be done however I want a switchable three camera system if possible.

I think for a multi camera setup on one screen you may need Wifi. I’ve just had a quick look and I think you can set up your own local Wifi unit without internet access just for your own devices to communicate. There must be some clever bods on her that can advise that.
