Questions about the Fox 40 Classic Whistle
Why choose a pealess whistle?
A pealess whistle has no ball inside, so there are no moving parts to freeze, jam or deteriorate. The Fox 40 Classic uses three chambers instead and clears itself when submerged.
How far can it be heard?
The sound can be heard up to a mile away, and it cannot be overblown. The harder you blow, the louder it gets.
Do I need a whistle on the water?
In most on-the-water situations a sounding device like a whistle is required by the Coast Guard, and it is vital for signaling over surf and whitewater.
Where should I attach it on my PFD?
Use the included split ring on a lash tab or loop. Do not clip it to the PFD's zipper pull, because that can unzip the jacket by accident.
Is it flame resistant or rated for fire use?
No. It is water rescue gear and is not rated for fire or high-heat use. It is not structural firefighting PPE and is not NFPA 1971 certified.
