To celebrate the return of the Southampton Boat Show, we’re putting your safety in mind by offering a fantastic 10% off selected SOS beacons, flares, inReach trackers and Iridium Go! until September 19th. We have chosen these bestselling devices because they are trusted, reliable and even recommended, by national marine safety institutions like the RNLI.

They complement each other perfectly meaning it is best to set off with each of them in your rucksack. They are as compact as they are cost-effective, with no subscription costs whatsoever.
