I was also testing wearing my SPOT unit on my left shoulder. I forgot about it until my sister's friend asked what was blinking on my shoulder. Every transmission was received.

The shoulder is the best place because the sailors shoulders always have clear view of the sky and if the skipper is wearing it, it will stay fairly dry. I found a local place that we can rent the SPOT units for about $40/unit for the week.

That's all well and good ,but I've got enough crap on my person already sailing and won't add anything else.More to tangle in tacks and I've had to swim after boats after breaking traps and all that stuff becomes a big problem.SPOT are for entertainment, Epirbs are for life saving, that will be on my person.If SPOTS are supplied I'd put it on the boat somewhere.


can it be mounted on the boom?
