Like I said Likwid.....a bit of symantics, yes an Epirb is registered to a vessel, and a PLB is for an individual......the people coming to rescue you are not coming to rescue the boat they are coming for you (people). Do you think they will come get you if you lend your plb to someone else for the weekend and it is not registered in the same name as the person in peril? of course to will.

The point I am trying to make for the people that don't know how it works is that the epirb does not stay with the boat when deployed.
