Be prepared before you depart.
Once again, the Friends of the Pohnpei Public Library would like to remind the general public of the EPIRB (Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon) rental service to assist with maritime safety for the community. EPIRBs are designed to provide a satellite link to search and rescue services during an emergency. These devices are vital for safety at sea and help rescuers locate vessels in distress. Mariners, fishers, and community members are encouraged to make use of this resource.
EPIRB rental only costs $5 — a small price to pay for peace of mind and a literal lifeline for everyone on the water. In an emergency, this device is your direct link to help. Don't risk it — grab an EPIRB before you pull anchor. Your life is worth far more than five dollars. Visit us at the Pohnpei Public Library to pick one up today or call us at 320-2423.
All rental fees contribute to supporting the Pohnpei Public Library. Kalahngan to the Pohnpei Island Fishing Club for the generous donation of these units.
Your safety matters. Please spread the word and help keep our community protected.
