Well folks I've just about cobbled this boat together ( a lot of it thanks to you guys) and I have just one more bit to go.
I have been looking at antenna and vhf radios and was wondering what you guys would recommend.
The boat will be used for offshore Barkley Sound with the occasional trip up the coast to Nootka etc.
I've looked at the usual suspects and the two I was looking at were a Shakespeare galaxy 5400 (3db) and the 8' version which is 6db.
Only thing I had against the 8' one is that it would be on top of the cabin and not sure about the wind resistance on the base when moving.
So if anybody wants to chip in (also vhf radios) please do
Thanks
