I just ordered an ACR Aqualink PLB and I understand they make a good product. I didn't pick the new McMurdo FastFind because I thought it didn't have GPS, but I now realize it includes GPS in a smaller, cheaper unit than the Aqualink. Any recommendations?
 
I was just issued the McMurdo FastFind by the Coast Guard. Their factory rep said the CG has 16,000 of them. It seems simple to operate and reliable. Hopefully I will never be able to give a true user's evaluation.
 
You chose fine...your ACR is a bit more expensive but it floats and the non "Max G" FastFind does not (you have to buy a neoprene sleeve for the regular FastFind to float).
