Have three Radio Shack and Sears meters of different flavours. Always have one where I need it and a backup. No probems around salt water after eleven years. Still "knat's ass" accurate too. Spent, maybe $80, total. Can't see the point in having a Fluke unless someone else is paying! Have found it worthwhile spending more for quality probes though.
