Given, that I run offhsore on a regular basis I decided to finally take the plunge and purchase a PLB. This is really something I have been meaning to purchase for sometime now but the cost has always been a bit of an issue. Thanks to the internet I think I identified one of the best deals. They are running a special as I type, so just purcahsed mine for:$557.99,
It is a 2897ACR ResQFix 406 Personal Locator Beacon (PLB) with GPS.
I guess I would rather be broke and alive and then dead and rich! Besides, $600 up against spending the night in the water or stuck in the gulf somewhere is a no brainer!
The new GPS will have to wait a bit, Heck the one I have gets me close enough to see the rigs lol
If anyone is interested, http://www.anchorexpress.com/group....=256&seo=EPIRBs is where I ordered mine from.
