THIS IS THE ONE! When you're lost outdoors, floating around in the angry sea, or need emergency help, the McMurdo FastFind Plus With the Built-In GPS will improve your chances of getting help within the shortest length of time.  Normally when you need a PLB, seconds count and with built-in GPS, your exact position (within 98 feet) is known, thus the rescue folks know exactly where to look.  Don't let seconds turn into minutes or hours at a critical time during your life. 

The FastFind Plus transmits a homing signal on 406Mhz and 121.5Mhz.  When needed the FastFind Plus signals will be transmitted to Cospas-Sarsat satellites and forwarded on to the rescue folks.  The built-in GPS receiver's lat/long will be transmitted on the 406Mhz making it easier to find you during the emergency.  Think about it; you're floating around in the ocean, no one knows where you are; you managed to shoot your fool self while hunting.  Wouldn't you want the rescue squad to reach you in the shortest length of time?  The few extra dollars you spend today, could in fact save your life in the future.

The Fastfind Plus comes complete with lanyard and designer splash-proof carry case to enable users to keep the PLB safely attached at all times.
