Fastfind Plus, McMurdo Pains Wessex

Fastfind Plus

If you like the idea of the internal GPS chip but want to keep the PLB as light as possible, check out the Fastfind Plus by McMurdo Pains Wessex. At 9 ounces, the Fastfind Plus is one of the lightest PLBs with an internal GPS chip. In addition to transmitting on 406 MHz and 121.5 MHz, the Fastfind Plus automatically activates its own GPS every 20 minutes to update your location-a nice feature if you are helplessly drifting across a large body of water, on the move trying to stay warm, or trying to access help. No interface connector/cable means less hassle when the you-know-what hits the fan. Just turn it on and your exact location will be transmitted every 20 minutes, even if you move. To sweeten the deal, the Fastfind Plus has a self-deploying antenna and it floats.
