Satellite2 406 EPIRB

The EPIRB is a satellite signaling device of last resort, for use when all other means of self-rescue have been exhausted, where the situation is grave and imminent and the loss of life, limb, eyesight or valuable property will occur without assistance. Don't forget to register your beacon online and update each time you travel by boat, including the number of people in your party, any significant medical conditions of those on board or other information that would aid rescuers in the event of an emergency.
