I hate it....loved the m24 but my m25 is nothing but problems.   It powers itself off into float and flash mode all the time even with out getting wet...just from mist and moisture while attached to my pfd. On several trips offshore at trinidad and the cove I lost radio communication because of this.  Once in dicey weather and had problems locating buddies in bad weather. Borrowed out my backup that day to a friend who forgot his...it wasnt a good situation to be in.  Been in contact with customer service...they told me i could turn the float and flash setting off in programming mode...i did but it keeps losing communications.   The m24 is a much better radio radio if you can still find it.
