what is the best whistle ,where folks buy it

I bought a nice one ( 8 bucks at a fishing store)and lost it- I am going to buy two more there again this friday but wanted input here first
I want to have one for me and my gal each in case my back is to her at a distance or wind and swell and her radio dies etc...I want to be able to know if she needs help..or me...or someone near me etc.

i think the money is not and issue as long as the whistle is top quality...cheap works too

I don't own a PDF whistle .... I do have a PFD whistle though

I picked the ones up I have at West MArine a number of years ago when I worked for them.  Plastic, no metal. 

I sdpeellt bad n skool

 

a plastic one is the ONLY one......West Marine sells a packaged deal.....signal mirror and whistle.
i'm sure you could find a high end one there too

I use my football official's classic Fox 40 whistle. Plastic, pealess, cheap and loud.

I love my Scotty whistle, like this one:



I've blown that thing so loud you could hear it miles away!  Only about 5$ too, for some peace of mind it's a cheap investment!

i got one of these too!   sometimes the ball rolls/bounces when i paddle and i start looking for what's MAKING ALL THAT NOISE!   

When on the water, you want to have a pea-less whistle because when the type with peas get wet, their volume is greatly reduced. Arguably, one of the best on the market is the Fox 40

I'll get two fox 40 this week...I'll probably never need it but I want the added safety if she needs help otw

I just took a mouthful of water and blew it through my whistle and continued blowing and it was just as loud as before.  Fox40 looks good, but I'll stick with my trusty Scotty.   

Pealess whistles never freeze, and the pea never gets stuck.

I always have two with me, well three. One is plastic the others are attached to my hands. Some people can whistle with out their fingers I never mastered that. But all of mine are loud.
