Thats an interesting device though its not quite what I had in mind in that it alerts the paddler, rather than the ship with the radar transmitter. The thought I had was to actively echo back the radar pulse somewhat amplified so that the kayak could be seen on the larger ship's radar. For all I know this may be either impractical, or inappropriate as it could give a false impression on the radar screen of the larger ship. If it hasn't been thought of it might be worth exploring, though it would need to go through regulatory checks before being made available. All the best, PeterO *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
