There has often been a dilemma as to which type of personal locator beacon (PLB) is best for mariners — the choice being either the 406Mk satellite PLB or the AIS beacon.

Now with the all-new, DAME Design Award winning Ocean Signal RescueMe PLB3, both systems have been combined into one, making it the ultimate PLB for all users.

Add return link sending (RLS), near-field communication (NFC) and controllability via a smartphone app, and the RescueMe PLB3 is a game-changer in personal safety onboard, whether for inshore, coastal or trans-ocean use.

CH Marine are taking pre-orders now for delivery by the end of December at a special limited Black Friday deal price of €499 — a huge saving of 25% on the RRP of €670.

Marine Science Perhaps it is the work of the Irish research vessel RV Celtic Explorer out in the Atlantic Ocean that best highlights the essential nature of marine research, development and sustainable management, through which Ireland is developing a strong and well-deserved reputation as an emerging centre of excellence. From Wavebob Ocean energy technology to aquaculture to weather buoys and oil exploration these pages document the work of Irish marine science and how Irish scientists have secured prominent roles in many European and international marine science bodies.
