 Great for anchoring your sailboat June 15, 2007

Basically, it works great! We use our rangefinder to judge the distance from our boat to the shore, other boats, and anything else around us. Typical distances are 20 to 200 yards. We bought the cheapest rangefinder we could find because we didn't need accuracy, didn't need long distance, and weren't sure it would be useful to us. Turns out we use it all the time and recommend it to all our sailing friends. We would buy the same unit again, but there are three things about it I would change. First, the unit is about 1/2" too long for the case that came with it -- it fits, but the case doesn't close all the way. Very annoying! Second, sailors tend to measure in feet or meters and this unit measures in yards. It's easy enough to multiply by three, but at the end of a long day when you are trying to figure the dinstances between a rocky point, a mooring bouy, and two other boats, it would be nice to avoid the math... Third, I would add a backlight to the display for use at twighlight and at night -- the unit makes the measurements, you just can't see the crosshairs to aim and can't read the distance until you look at a light.

I went cheap and got the 450 for golf. It's almost useless over 150 yds out. My cart partner had a Pinseeker, and he had no problem shooting traps 275 away. I could not hit the carts ahead of us. The Pinseeker actually shoots the flag, something the 450 can't. Mine's going back.

I'm not sure any laser rangefinder would be effective at long ranges, but this one at least is absolutely perfect at close ones. It even works in dim light.

I ordered mine at amazon.com's back in early December. I am still waiting for it. They have delayed it 3 times already. They are telling me now that I might get it come April. At this rate, perhaps I will finally get it before next Christmas! Don't be fooled by their "1-2 days shipping". Sure, it only takes 1-2 days to ship it; after they hold your order for 4 MONTHS. Other than amazon.com, this might be a good product.

I bought this at a local Sporting Goods store for $150 because of the price and brought it to the range. I could range the 50, 100 and 150 signs. I was able to range the 181 yard flag...once only. And the bright yellow 200 yard sign....forget it. I tried until the battery was dying, balanced it against a board and still couldn't hit it. Forget all the other pins. I was able to return it and am waiting for a Nikon with it's First Priority program to go on sale. Maybe good for other uses, but not golf.
