Ocean Signal

Signal for rescue in an emergency

When a serious emergency strikes on the water, a beacon that signals your position can save your life, and Ocean Signal is a trusted name in compact, reliable beacons. The line covers EPIRBs that register to your vessel and alert search and rescue with your GPS position over the satellite system, personal locator beacons carried on your person, and man-overboard AIS beacons that alert your own boat and nearby vessels if someone falls overboard. Known for compact, well-designed units, Ocean Signal makes life-saving safety gear that boaters who venture offshore and crews who want man-overboard protection should carry. For serious emergencies, an Ocean Signal beacon is a vital link to rescue.

Choosing the right beacon comes down to your boating and what you want to cover. An EPIRB registers to your vessel and is the boat's primary distress beacon, while a PLB registers to a person and is carried on you. A man-overboard AIS beacon, worn by crew, alerts your own boat and nearby vessels immediately if someone goes over, for fast recovery. Consider GPS-enabled models for faster location, register the beacon with the proper authority where required, and check the battery service life. Review the product details before buying. With an Ocean Signal beacon, you carry a vital link to rescue.
