The McMurdo FastFind 220 is a compact, life-saving Personal Locator Beacon (PLB) designed for marine enthusiasts, hikers, and adventurers who venture into remote areas. As the world's first PLB equipped with both GPS and Galileo GNSS receivers, the FastFind 220 delivers accelerated location detection to get help to you faster when every second counts.

Within minutes, rescue coordination centers are alerted to your emergency and receive regular position updates. Emergency responders can then home in on your beacon's 121.5 MHz signal to pinpoint your exact location.
