Keep your marine comms clear and reliable with the Shakespeare 5225XT-RL Galaxy VHF Antenna. This slightly shorter version of the original 5225-XT is trimmed down to 7.75 feet to reduce shipping costs - without sacrificing any performance. You still get the same solid 6dB gain and impressive range, thanks to its collinear-phased 5/8-wave elements that boost clarity and keep you connected. Upgraded with a tougher, more durable radome, it's built to handle high winds and speed, making it a great choice for serious boaters who cover a lot of water.
Designed to last, it features a stainless steel ferrule for secure mounting and a hand-coated, high-gloss urethane finish that holds up against sun, salt, and spray. Inside, precision brass and copper elements deliver clean, consistent signal performance.
