All allow you to simply blow to make a loud, kazoo-like sound.
All allow you to replace the vibrating membrane with any thin sheet of plastic (such as plastic wrap).
All are made of hard plastic and should be impervious to water damage, although the Coughland is made of a cheaper, more brittle plastic, while the SeaSense is of a more robust plastic, with the Atwood in between.
In loudness, the Coughland was the softest, while the SeaSense and Atwood seemed equally very loud. It was easy with the Atwood to blow softer or harder to make the sound quieter or louder -- not so easy with the others.
In pitch, the Coughland was the lowest, the Atwood in the middle and the SeaSense was the highest. Uniquely, the SeaSense can easily be configured to produce three different pitches -- which might make a difference depending upon the context (e.g. on open water vs in a forest or in a mountain valley).
In size, the Coughland and SeaSense were about equal and could if needed fit into most pockets, the Atwood was two to three times as large.
In price, the Atwood was three times the price of the other two. On the other hand this is the only one where it should be obvious to anyone who picks it up where to blow into it.
The Coughland and SeaSense both emit sound to the left and right (near your ears). Cupping your hands behind the left & right ends shield your ears a little from the loudness. The Atwood emits sound forward and away from you, which helps a little. All of them will be loud to your ears no matter what you do.
It was hard to find a replacement. Even though external design is slightly different, works fine.
I like this design better than ones with compressed air canisters (what do you do when it is empty?) As long as I can "blow", any vessel in my vicinity can hear me!
The problem is that it is stupid construction made with cheap plastic parts that break easily. Even if you test it and carefully set it aside in a kid glove padded box, when you pull it out to alert the incoming ship of your presence, it may very well not work, and SPLAT! You’re dead!
When the plastic “reed“ inevitably breaks, replacing it requires several minutes of fidgeting and adjusting. “When seconds count, it’ll be ready in just a few minutes!”
USCG should never have approved this piece of junk!
Do NOT depend upon this on any boat ever.
