[QUOTE="RedDirtDigger, post: 115487, member: 2964"] If you visit remote areas on land you need PLB (Personal locator Beacon). $350 cost, batteries last 5 years and they are the size of a pack of cigarettes. Do not get an EPIRB. Link below and image is the model i have had for three years, that i would recommend. Its water proof but needs to be in the neoprene jacket to float on water. The first aid kit in this deal is very very good. The PLB works out at costing me only a gram and a half of gold a year (over 5 years) for piece of mind, and knowing i will not be costing maybe 100's of thousands in search and rescue costs if i get lost or in trouble.
