We have been cruising Mexico,the Pacific Northwest and Alaska on our 47 ft.
sailboat since our retirement 10 years ago. At times we are totally out of
contact. Our sons gave us "Spot" 4 years ago as a gift. We press the OK
button at each of out stops. It is a tremendous comfort to all of us. We are
able to interact with Google Maps and blog our adventures. WE LOVE SPOT!

What happens when you loose SPOT off of your Motor Cycle?
Well, I did that
last weekend.
Luckily SPOT landed facing the sky but was under a fence rail
with trees overhead. In a 5 hr period, before I discovered it was missing, it
only manage to send out 5 position signals. That was enough since it was in one
place.
I put the coordinates into my GPS Mapping Software, sent it to a friend
that lived close to the area where SPOT was. He uploaded the GPS info into his
GPS and set off to find SPOT.
Yes, you guessed it. He found SPOT after about
15 minutes of searching.

SPOT did exactally what it was supposed to do. What
a great test of the unit.

We are extream snowmobilers ( TEAM Verticial assassins) and your product gives
us all comfort in knowing going big up a tight shoot or boondocking in the back
