So I'll need a new radio. The antenna is good, but needs a new PL259 installed which is walk in the park for this redneck... Reminiscing on my old CB radio days.. Haha

I'd like to get a radio that I can flush mount and that's relatively compact. They all seem to be the same as far a features and output power.

Safety should be a redundant issue, most boats that venture offshore alone with a single engine have 2 radios. I would get a console mounted radio and a waterproof hand held.
