Lautoka has a coral man made reef across the front of the beach about a half mile out,
It was unmarked on my GPS, I nearly run over it,
I didnt see it when I was standing on the beach a week before as the tide was in,

Hi all, dropped it off in Lautoka at a mates pace as I am off on a nearby island for the next couple of days. I'll update shortly, and still not dead from it exploding.

Zunibal "Tuna satellite buoy". Complex bit of technology. Must be worth a bit.

Actually, my mistake, it's a "Satlink ELB3010 DSL" Tuna buoy. Exact down to the switch positions, DSL Barcode sticker etc. Amazing what you can find on the Internet.

"100% solar powered buoy (no battery inside) Unlimited autonomy. Permanently connected"

Just in case you decide to tear it down.

This has turned out to be fascinating. So, can anyone tell me can I pack in my luggage (not carry on, in the hold) or do I have to ship it back to Australia. Also, will ring Trimarine the parent company, later to see if they want it back (I'll then decide if I actually give it back)

About a 1 min phone call to Trimarine in the US and they said I could keep it. Will ship it back to Australia to be safe. Thanks everyone for the info.
