Wow Kevin!
Wonderfull pictures of a beautiful landscape! And a very nice boat too!
Welcome to the "Mug Shot Gang"
Hopefully you don't have to go out for SAR with your boat (better not at all), but it is good to have the right people and the right equipment handy if a situation needs it.
Sad that money is always an issue if it comes to security and related themes.
Our Water Police outfitted a couple of their small boats with HB fishfinders last year.....
and bought 500 series fishfinders!
I talked to their boss this spring about getting SI for their big boats, but they didn't even know about SI. Maybe they will buy at the end of the year, if there is money left in their budget. They called me in June to assist in a search for a possibly drowned angler in Constance. Couldn't find the guy, but it wasn't even sure if there was someone drowned (people found a fishing rod at the banks and a baseball cap in the water near it). Got a reimbursement for the gasoline and that was fine with me than.
Best wishes from Lake Constance
