hand held VHF radio
Traveling on water by yourself has the tendency to become risky. Whether you are riding a kayak or a skiff down a long stretch of river with no other human beings in sight, it is important that you have a means of communicating with the outside world in case of any emergency. Always bring along a hand held VHF radio to serve as your primary method of communicating.
With this, you won’t have to worry about running wires, or mounting a radio and antenna. Those who own larger boats prefer having a fixed mount VHF radios which they install in their watercraft. A VHF portable is a great and viable backup radio. It can also serve as a means for two-way communication between a big boat behind the breakers and a dingy that has brought passengers to shore.
