5' Inflatable emergency VHF Antenna!
The Shakespeare Galaxy INFL8 VHF inflatable emergency antenna is ideal for emergency uses, used as a backup antenna or for use on kayaks, jet skis, inflatables, or dinghies. This device can be rapidly deployed with a CO2 cartridge or manually through the included tube by mouth. The INFL8 antenna inflates to 5ft with a 3dB antenna gain offering a range that’s up to 3 times greater than other emergency antennas.
This antenna has been designed with multiple features to enhance users’ safety at sea, including contrasting colors to allow it to be seen day and night and built-in reflective strips for extra visibility. The antenna is mounted with hook and loop straps allowing for quick and easy installation in any weather, and thanks to its inflatable design and manual valve it is reusable, so it can be deflated and stowed away safely until it is needed.
