EPIRB Location

[Harrysea]

Where’s the best place to mount a Category II EPIRB?

Mine is in the cabin on the bulkhead a foot from the steps/walkway. I can reach inside and grab it without going down in the cabin. I want to keep it out of the weather and spray but be able to get t it quickly.

Mine is in my ditch bag at my feet at the helm. Much more accessible than mounted somewhere. I want to be able to grab everything and go if poo hits the fan. For me, no thinking involved whether I have everything or not in my bag to get off my boat in an emergency.

Ditch bag for me as well. I want to get the raft into the water first, load the crew and ditch bag and then set it off.
