WIN an Ocean Signal rescueME PLB3 with AIS, worth more than £450

We have teamed up with Ocean Signal to offer a great prize for one lucky reader  – the Ocean Signal rescueME PLB3 personal locator beacon, RRP around £476.

The Ocean Signal rescueME PLB3 personal locator beacon is the most powerful safety solution for rapid rescue in a man overboard emergency.

Combining multiple levels of integrated signal technology within a 406 MHz PLB for the first time, the PLB3 introduces AIS functionality, Return Link Service (RLS) technology, and Near Field Communication (NFC) capabilities.

The PLB3 unites the global response capabilities of the Cospas-Sarsat rescue services with AIS, to indicate an MOB position to nearby vessels for immediate aid.

The merging of 406 MHz and AIS distress messaging effectively pairs both global and local rescue to provide a survivor with the best chance of quickly alerting others to a distress situation.

Winner of the prestigious Overall DAME Award 2022, the small and lightweight Ocean Signal device is designed for simple lifejacket integration.
