Can't go wrong with that radio and that price!  I'm using the 750s model for a couple years now and love it!

I have the older model 750.  It works fine.  The only thing that I don't like is the size.  Its kinda of bulky.  It took me a while to find a good spot to clip it to on my pfd, but now I don't notice it.  I don't know if I really need a floating radio.  I clip it to my pfd and I have a retaining strap.
