r10_trials_thumbnailOn a lovely mid October early morning we found ourselves at Lymington quay waiting to board the boat we had chartered for the day.  It was a still and sunny morning, although the shipping forecast was for gale force 8 later on; we were hoping for something in between as the main purpose of the day was to put our new beacons (the SafeLink R10 Survivor Recovery System plus the McMurdo SmartFind S10 Personal AIS Beacon) through their paces in rough weather.
