Cobra VHF Marine Radio - MR HH150 FLT - 3 Watt, Floating, Long Range, Handheld, NOAA, International, Waterproof, Submersible, Weather Alerts, LCD Screen, Belt Clip

This is an impressive radio and worked great for jet skiing and being out on the water. It stored easily in my jet ski compartment and clipped securely to my life jacket. The signal and reception were excellent, even in coastal waters, and it picked up flawlessly. The volume is strong enough to hear broadcasts clearly over the sound of the motor. I really like that it’s rechargeable, floats, and is water resistant. For the price, it can be a true lifesaver. Don’t rely on your cell phone out on the water—this is the way to go.

We go boating in the islands and cross the gulf stream often. This is great for just a bit of added safety. Once in the island we use it to communicate with the dingy. i can hail my sons well over 2 miles away and can hear them very clearly. Nothing much more to be said, it works great!!

This radio works great, until it gets wet, then hard to hear. Once dry, or the water is shaken from the speaker, back to normal. Read the instructions, but must have missed the part about shaking the water out of the speaker. Otherwise, great radio.

I had been planning to purchase a larger, more complex and much more expensive marine radio with GPS but didn't like the idea of running out of battery power midway through the trip and not having a working radio/GPS unit when I really needed one. It also seemed like a lot of money to spend on kayaking trips which I only get to do every couple of years. So, I opted for this simpler, more compact, and much cheaper marine radio for emergency purposes as well as for marine forecasts and also purchased a separate GPS unit. This was certainly the way to go! It has excellent battery life, decent reception and easily fits in a PFD pocket. And, because it was under $100 I don't mind it sitting in a drawer for a year or two until the next kayak trip. The GPS unit I got also has excellent battery life while also being compact and is usable for land and sea trips, unlike marine radios which are only to be used on water.

This is a great product for when you’re on the water and there’s no service and you need to call for help.

The radio is simple to use and the price is right, but the volume is inadequate.

Muy bueno

Use this at Lake Cumberland, KY. Nice to have a backup when my phone loses signal.
