      All good!!
      I did my research and decided I wanted a Kestrel 1000.
      I found it for sale on the Extreme Meters web site and the price was the
      same as Amazon and they both had generous return policies so I ordered it from
      Extreme Meters. I ordered it on Monday and received it on Saturday.
      I received an email notice when I ordered it, when it was shipped and when I
      received it. And it was just what I wanted. I have not used it much yet,
      I plan to use it on my boat.
      So it was all good.

      Thank you for choosing Extreme Meters for your Kestrel! Your Kestrel 1000 is perfect for boating & water sports. It's waterproof and it floats!
