Wherever you are, at sea, on land, the rescueME PLB1 provides the assurance that global emergency services can be alerted at the push of a button.

The rescueMe PLB1 can be operated with one hand even in the most difficult situations. A simple spring-loaded flap covers the activation button and prevents inadvertent use.

RescateME PLB1 is powered by the only officially recognized worldwide dedicated search and rescue satellite network (operated by Cospas Sarsat). As this is funded by governments, there are NO CHARGES for using this service.

When activated, rescueME PLB1 transmits your position and ID to a Rescue Coordination Center via a satellite link. The rescue services closest to you are immediately notified of your emergency and regularly informed of your current location to help you perform a speedy rescue.

The rescueME PLB1 is provided with a flotation bag to fit the PLB to allow it to float. Note that the PLB will not float in a trading position on the exchange. Make sure the PLB is securely attached to the bag with the supplied drawstring, using proper self-locking knots.
