That's it. Aren't there EPIRBS that attach to life vests? I'm buying one
before the boat hits the water this spring.



At this point I believe they are too big and expensive.
I carry a VHF handheld on my person while sailing.
Too bad someone can't design a minature EPIRB that could pin to your PFD
similar to the little strobe lights.
