PRODUCT OVERVIEW

About this gear

The rescueME EPIRB2 Pro combines a vessel distress beacon with a Category I automatic-release bracket. Compared with the older EPIRB1 Pro, it adds Return Link Service and NFC access to battery and self-test information.

Consider before buying

RLS confirms receipt of the distress alert; it does not supply a rescue arrival time. Its satellite distress and homing signals should not be confused with AIS alerts to nearby boats. The bracket needs an appropriate mounting location and its own maintenance checks.

Our take

Our preference over the EPIRB1 Pro for a new installation when the price difference is reasonable: receipt confirmation and accessible test history are useful additions. Compare an AIS-equipped EPIRB3 if local AIS detection is part of the vessel’s plan.
