VHF radio.
Properly used, this Cobra

product will give you
many years of reliable service.
How Your CobraMarine VHF Radio Works
This radio is a battery-powered portable transceiver for use afloat. It gives you
two-way vessel-to-vessel and vessel-to-shore station communications, primarily
for safety and secondarily for navigation and operational purposes. With it, you
can call for help, get information from other boaters, talk to lock or bridge tenders,
and make radiotelephone calls to anywhere in the world through a marine operator.
Besides two-way communications, the radio can provide quick access to receive
all the NOAA (National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration) weather channels
and alert you to weather emergencies with a tone on a weather channel
you can select for your area.
Global Positioning Sytem (GPS)
Your Cobra Marine radio includes a built-in GPS receiver. Your position will be continuously
indicated on the LCD and, most importantly, it will be included automatically with any DSC
Distress message you may need to send. That will take the “search” out of “search and
rescue”.
