Hey,
I do like Standard Horizon gear and I have had a few of their VHD radios.
Nice gear, good audio quality, innovative, etc.
My comment is this: The SH radios are NMEA 0183 only. This is too bad
because NMEA 2000 is much easier to integrate. If you don't have any other
electronics, and do
That only holds true if you have a NMEA 2000 plotter. My plotter and computer
are both 0183, so a 2000 radio would do nothing for me.
Also note that the AIS integrated radio is redundant if you have or are going
to get AIS transmitting gear.

Has anyone looked at or used the Simrad RS35 VHF radio? It looks amazing
for the price! It has NMEA2000, AIS, DSC and supports up to two wireless
remote mikes. Defender has it for $329.99. The wireless remote mike is
$139.99. The comparable Icom radio is $399.99 and the remote mike and

Thanks for that link Rick,
I didn’t realise you could game the system like that, the last time I tried
that it didn’t work. Maybe it is because, as someone mentioned, that they
actually source it out of UK. Interesting.

There are 12 VDC dehumidifiers. I saw one on a boat couple days ago.
They're small and will fit in a sink. They come with a reservoir to catch
the condensate but if you remove it or drill a hole in the bottom, you can
simply put it in your sink and forget it.

The exact material is important. It is cast, not extruded, and make very
sure it is also UV stabilized. Otherwise it will only last about one

That’s supposed to be a pretty nice radio; but I have an issue with the whole

Hard to argue the first point. Things that are not attached have a propensity
to dive off the boat the very moment you turn your head and often don’t even
wait for that.
But re the second point, I have a handheld VHF radio (an older Icom) and its

Hi Fred,
I was thinking the same thing about the wireless mike(having lost a
hand held radio overboard before). Of course, if you will accept the idea
of a mike with a cord, you can always attach a fabric cord to the wireless
mike to keep it in the boat. The battery is a different issue.
Th
Marek,
Agreed. I have an iCom portable that I've had for several years and
never had a battery problem. It's all about good design and proper
maintenance, I guess.

I agree, Fred. If you want a wireless remote mic, buy a handheld VHF,
specifically the Standard Horizon HX850S.
No, it won't pump out 25 watts but your wireless remote won't work in your
dinghy away from the boat, either.
I have a hardwired RAM3 at the helm for my Standard Horizon VHF. Love it.
I like the SH radio, but my boat is wired for NMEA 2000.

It might be longer than you think, as NMEA2k certification is a long and
expensive process for the manufacturers… S-H may not want to mess with it.

Just hang in there, I am sure next year they will have it in 2000 NMEA. Heaven
forbid they do all this at one time.
When I bought my 2150, I was cursing them for not putting the gps in it, and of
course, why do that when they can put it in a couple years later and push

"I bet 80% of boats have at least some 0183 gear still."
I sure do, and I'm resistant to change to 2000. I like the MFDs that
incorporate 0183 and 2000 and I think even bridge between the two. 0183
works, is open, and is more or less readable with a standard serial port.

I hear what you are saying, Fred. And I have to agree.
Imzadi has a fixed mount VHF at the helm and also a separate fixed mount at the
nav station. Each is connected to a GPS (the one at the helm is the Garmin
chartplotter), and each has a dedicated antenna.
While I like the redundancy, t
