Why I Love It
The Standard Horizon VHF Radio is essential for my boating adventures. Its compact design and floating capability ensure it’s easy to handle and retrieve if dropped overboard.
The water-activated emergency strobe light adds a critical safety feature, and I love that it works even when the radio is off. The ability to tune into FM radio stations keeps me entertained on the water.
The reliable waterproof warranty gives me confidence in its durability and performance. It’s a versatile and trustworthy companion for any marine activity.
It’s compact so it’s easy to throw in my ditch bag for my dinghy.
