McMurdo, the emergency readiness and response company, exhibited its proven range of life-saving EPIRBs, PLBs and AIS electronics at the Miami International Boat Show in February.
The McMurdo SmartFind G5 GPS EPIRB (right) features a high-performance, multi-channel GPS, and a battery that offers a minimum 48-hour operation and six-year battery life.
The compact, easy to activate McMurdo FastFind 220 is small and light enough to carry at all times. The FastFind 220 transmits a unique ID and your current GPS coordinates via the Cospas-Sarsat global search and rescue satellite network, alerting rescue services within minutes.
The McMurdo SmartFind S20 Personal AIS Man Overboard (MOB) Device is worn on a lifejacket and is activated by sliding off the safety tab and lifting an arming cap to deploy the antenna. The compact, lightweight unit is an effective aid to recovering crew and passengers who have fallen overboard by sending alert messages, GPS position and a special identity code directly to AIS receivers within approximately a 4-mile radius.
