ACR GlobalFix V5 EPIRB – Category 1 Marine Emergency Beacon with GPS

When It Matters Most, Trust ACR.

The ocean is unpredictable. When the worst happens far from shore, the ACR GlobalFix V5 EPIRB is your lifeline to rescue. This Category 1 Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) automatically activates when submerged in water, transmitting your precise GPS location to search and rescue authorities via the COSPAS-SARSAT satellite network — the same system trusted by mariners, aviators, and adventurers worldwide.

Don't leave the dock without it.
