The Shakespeare Raider is a compact VHF marine antenna specifically designed for RIBs (Rigid Inflatable Boats), fast powerboats and small marine craft.
Its short, black stainless steel whip provides a practical alternative to traditional long fibreglass antennas, particularly on vessels exposed to vibration, impact and high-speed operation.
The antenna features an integrated mounting bracket and a solderless connection system for straightforward installation.
