...A simple, highly effective, automatic man overboard locating safety system with GPS plot which includes the new high power Sea Marshall AU9 series man overboard Alerting Unit (PLB). This system automatically alerts you of a man overboard, recording the GPS position of the incident, the SARfinder locator unit then tracks the direction of the Man Overboard and gives approximate range near or far. The plbs in this system integrate with SAR services for precise tracking on 121.5MHz should you need extra support.
PLEASE NOTE - the tracking ranges listed are taken from tests where the receiver antenna has been correctly installed at the recommended height with the AU9 correctly installed in either an SMB for divers or lifejacket, with antenna clip for normal use. The SMB gave the maximum range listed as achieved during tests, the lifejacket AU9 installation gave the lower end of the ranges listed. Wearing the AU9 around the neck will reduce the tracking/alerting ranges to below the ranges listed here in.

Alerting Unit Approx Range Distances

...the 500mW version of the Sea Marshall® AU9 has approximately twice the range of the standard 100mW AU9
