Follow-up:
The mystery of my VHF's low output has been solved. We lost the antenna
whip on the way to Bermuda.
Next time there is a problem I will look up! Duh!

Joel,
I have an SWR meter if you want to test the wire and antenna performance.
You could also see how the radio performance is using the emergency VHF
antenna that you probably have as part of the race equipment. My emergency
antenna is very easy to hook up if you want to try it.
