  • Greater Range & Signal Strength – 8’ height allows the signal to travel farther, extending communication range.
  • Better for Offshore & Open-Water Use - Essential for boaters venturing offshore where longer-range communication is critical.
  • Low radiation angle – 6dB gain directs the signal outward, maximizing range and clarity for powerboats, yachts, and larger vessels.
  • Custom Cable Runs – Supports high-grade, low-loss coaxial cables (e.g. LMR-400, DA340, DA440, RG-8X), ideal for long or complex routing. Easily replace cable without replacing the antenna.
  • Easier Cable Replacement & Maintenance - Useful for professional or commercial boats that require frequent maintenance and reliability.
