Re: [Paddlewise] SPOT - Yes, it floats but.... THIRD

Dave -
 
It was a unit a month out of warranty.
 
NEVER submerged, rolled or otherwise underwater.
To clean after use, i would pour water from my water bottle or water bag over
the unit to rinse off salt water then i would place it on the passenger seat
as i drove home, an hour. Then i would remove batts and let i finish drying
our on my dresser.
 
Your thoughts?

John, was this a Garmin unit in warranty period?
