Skip, that is what I suspect as well. There is probably much less interference out on the water as well but I do wonder about how the radar units people have would be detected as a false positive.

I will tell you that my land-based unit that I currently own sniffs radar/lasar enforcement with very good accuracy. The only caveat is when you are the only car on the road.

To anyone who considers buying a radar detector (for land or water), you get what you pay for.
