PLB for NE

[arkstorm]

So you’re saying the plb is better because it’s in someone’s pants pocket versus on their console? I’m not really sure I get your point. Both devices transmit your gps location via a satellite network afaik..

…Yes that is exactly what I’m saying…because if I find myself overboard, the rescue beacon in my pocket will be a lot more helpful then the one still sitting in the cup holder on the boat that is now speeding away from my position.
