Title: Purchasing and epirb, What To Consider?
Post by: Hotrod on August 29, 2009, 06:09:46 PM

With all the different epirbs on the market, ranging from $145.00 to $1,300.00  What do you need to take into consideration when shopping this product you hope to never have to use.

I would be using it for no more than 50 Miles Off Shore.

The one's that have an internal GPS are even more accurate. Units from Revere McMurdo and ACR are some of the key players in the market. Matt.
