Ken borrowed my strobe. He was spotted by the helicopter after dark.
There was very little chance of finding him without the strobe.
If you want one that is field tested, you can buy the same one
I have by calling West Marine today. You might even have it by
the weekend if you call now.
Please do it now if you do not have one yet.
I have now seen advertisements for a $175 marine radio at
West Marine. Has anyone looked at it and determined if it
is worth buying? It is a new model that is water proof and
has a three year warranty.
