They want a CONTACT NAME so they can call and ask if it is a real distress call. I have thought of leaving the following on my voice mailbox: “If this is the USCG, hang up the damn phone and come get me.

The automatic ones are good for a sudden disaster where you are literally diving off the boat in what you are wearing. *Joe Della Barba* *From:* CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] *On Behalf Of *Joel Aronson *Sent:* Tuesday, November 13, 2012 1:46 PM *To:* cnc-list@cnc-list.com *Subject:* Stus-List EPIRB/ PLB I'm considering adding an EPIRB or PLB over the winter. I know the EPIRB is registered to the boat and the PLB is not. I know the EPIRB is good for 48 hours, the PLB is good for 24. If I get out of the Bay it will be to New England or possibly Bermuda (in my dreams). Which would you buy? If an EPIRB, Type I automatic or Type 2 manual? -- Joel 35/3 The Office Annapolis 301 541 8551 _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com -- Joel 301 541 8551 -- Joel 301 541 8551 _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com
