id also be looking at the epirb1 from oceansignal.
we sell all brands. and they all have pros and cons
the KTI SA1G has had a lot of good press and pushed a lot recently. and its a good product. its large and incharge but so far soo good. 10 year battery , 10 year warranty.
the english made epirb 1 is smaller still "smaller than the GME as well" still 10 year battery. twin strobe 121.5 and 406 etc.
id be suggesting the EPIRB1 from ocean signal.
