Selling my McMurdo Fastfind 211
Has never been activated, tested once (the basic battery test) and was bought last year October. Battery expires 08 / 2017.
Pictures can be added if needed.
In very good conditions.
Paypal only please.
Asking for 350 AUD inclusive shipping.
Item is located in Albany. I can ship to NZ as well. This is the type of PLB that only works in Australia or New Zealand.
I am leavin OZ soon and have no use for it anymore.
It is a great plb and I was happy to have it with me on my trips in NZ.
Cheers

Hi Wanderlust.
After getting this PLB off you, trying to register it and turns out I cant register this in Australia because its NZ coded!
I knew not to get a fastfind 210 from ebay as they're coded for the US, but didnt realise there are variations of the fastfind 211 too.
Thats all cool because my more remote trips are in NZ anyway. It can still be activated in Australia, just that its got to go through the NZ rescue centre first.
Another thing, I accidently broke off the cap while trying to test the PLB (as I saw on youtube). this model has a flaw: once you break it off, its broken. you need to buy a replacement from AMI sales in perth for $27.50! otherwise the cap just keeps falling off.
all good, and cheers for this.
