Sadly plus VAT though which brings it just over £170 to the usual discount price at Marine Superstore etc.

Still cheap in the big scheme of things. I'd rather chuck £170 at that than at a flare pack.

Oh yes... flares never to be seen again on our SIB. It was just I don't have a PLB and at the headline £143 was close to clicking buy... mind you what's the extra £30 for VAT when it hits the fan.

That's 343GBP at today's exchange rate...think I'll be sticking with flares until I next visit my family in England.

Cactus will probably ship outside the EU, VAT free. You would have shipping & local NZ taxes to pay. No idea what that'd amount to, worth a look though.

Finally took the plunge and bought a Fast Find 220 from Cactus.
Watched a few YouTube videos and decent reviews.
Well done P.D - you can claim your sales commission now😁
