Have you read about these guys?

We?ve probably covered this before but many times I read in different forums that to go offsore, the first thing you need to buy is an EPIRB.
Here is another, unrelated but similar, news I got from a friend in Island.

I look for subtle places, beaches, riversides and the ocean's lazy tides.
I don't want to be in races, I'm just along for the ride.
