All the rescue talk made me paranoid. I went out today and bought a ACR
Electronics Firefly II (Model MS-2000). It seemed to be the smallest one
available, but it wasn't cheap ($60.00). It appears to be small enough to
fit into my Visual Ed pocket. Anyone have any specific suggestions on which
strobe is best for windsurfing in terms of durability and size? How 'bout
this one?
Btw - Coyote was 5.0, but gusty, yesterday until about 5:00 pm. Then, I had
to do the swim back because it was honkin' in the channel, but dead near
shore. A guy I talked to at ASD sailed Sherman this weekend and said it was
going off (4.0) all day yesterday (didya make it out there Will??).
Hopefully, this week/next weekend will be as good.
