McMurdo Smartfind Plus GPS EPIRB £455.00!! (JKM044)
JK Max offer you the Smartfind Plus GPS EPIRB (G5) for just £455.00 inc. VAT
The Smartfind Plus (G5) has all the advanced features of the standard Smartfind (E5) with the addition of an integral 12 channel GPS receiver. The addition of a GPS receiver to the EPIRB ensures that the exact position of a casualty is relayed to the rescue services. This will in turn improve the speed of recovery by updating the position of the beacon at regular intervals.
Smartfind EPIRBs are programmed with a unique serial number which must be registered with the national authorities. Where permitted by these authorities, beacons can be re-programmed with the vessel's MMSI or Radio Call Sign. JK Max can take care of this for you if necessary.

How Does Smartfind Work
When activated, SMARTFIND E5 transmits radio signals which are detected by the COSPAS-SARSAT satellite network. The signal is then passed on to ground stations for processing. Any emergency distress alerts received are relayed to the nearest automated relay station. The processed information is then forwarded to a control centre where it is decoded and the distress and registration details are passed on to the relevant search and rescue authority.
The SMARTFIND PLUS G5 406 GPS EPIRB features an integral 12 channel GPS receiver within a compact and stylish 406 EPIRB. The benefit of the SMARTFIND PLUS G5 integral GPS is that it has the ability to provide a position when the EPIRB has been activated and is drifting at sea. The position is then constantly updated throughout the operating life of the beacon.
