There is a lot of overlap between Search and Rescue products for aviation and marine or land use use, so it's quite natural that an aviation company like Becker Avionics also makes SAR receivers and direction finders for use on boats and vehicles:

RT-500-M is a Maritime 4-band precision direction finder that includes "man-over-board" surveillance/alarm. It works in the maritime frequencies (Channels 01-88) of 118-124 MHz and 156-162 MHz as well as UHF frequencies of 240-246 MHz and 400-410 MHz, which includes COSPAS-SARSAT. It is quite similar to the airborne SAR-DF-517. RT-200 Series includes fully automatic, high precision direction finders for marine use. They are relatively low cost, waterproof and provide "man-over-board" surveillance/alarm and listen in the 121.5 MHz band. RT-100 Emergency Receiver low cost device that provides "man-over-board" surveillance and alarm. The frequency is 121.5 MHz. MR 510 Personal Locator Beacon can also be used on the water and transmits an emergency signal in the 121.5 MHz band as well as in the UHF bands of 243 MHz and 406 MHz (COSPAS-SARSAT)
