I have a ardent distrust of mixing rkectronics with salt water, and have seen my fair share of failures over the years -- both from consumer and design faults. My first AI computer was the Oceanic Datamax Pro, circa 1992, about the size of a brick, and notorious for flooding. I will never use a transmitter, having seen interminable failures over the years.
That said, I am one of those outliers, who haven't had an issue with Suunto products; and have the first and second generation of the Cobra; but I also carry analogue gauges, should the computers ever go tits-up . . .
