Cobham’s technology to pinpoint location of sailors at sea

June 01-15, 2011

A sailor suffering from life threatening diabetic seizures received a quick rescue response recently when his Cobham 406 emergency position indicating radio beacon (EPIRB) signal was received and effectively provided global positioning system (GPS) coordinates, directing US Coast Guard (USCG) rescuers to the sailor’s location 192 km south of San Diego.

An emergency signal from a Cobham ACR Products GlobalFix 406 EPIRB was received at 3:45 p.m, sent by the crew of a sailboat when the boat owner became ill and needed medical assistance. USCG crews reached the 71-yearold man at 5:45 p.m., just two hours after receiving the distress signal.
