Reliable Equipment.


Shipped directly to you. No hassle peace of mind so you can have a great trip.

Your crew relies on you to have the essential safety equipment when you go boating – and that takes a reliable partner. At the BoatUS Foundation for Boating Safety and Clean Water we have the largest inventory of rental emergency beacons in the country. We proudly offer emergency position indicating radio beacons (EPIRBs) for the boat and personal locator beacons (PLBs) for the crew. Place your order online or by phone and we will get the equipment to you when you need it.

Why Rent an EPIRB or PLB?


For the boater making occasional offshore trips outside of reliable VHF range, it pays to rent:

  • No large investment in equipment that has a limited life-span
  • We handle the NOAA registration so the unit is ready when you get it
  • We cover the equipment maintenance
  • No expensive battery replacement every 5 years
  • Easy online ordering with no security deposit required
