In addition to giving a life link in rescues, this new PLB also gives reassuring feedback to the user by proving it’s registering GPS position and by reporting battery power. New test functions allow users to monitor its GPS operation up to 60 times before degrading batteries. Upon activation, it also gives users vital instructions to ensure strong signals and optimize rescue communications. Why boat without it? $399; westmarine.com
