The Nautic Way Maritime Bookstore offers several models of portable VHF.

Are you looking for a VHF?

VHF is essential to your safety. According to Division 240, a waterproof and floating portable VHF is mandatory on board all boats sailing more than 60 NM from a shelter (in addition to a fixed VHF).

It is simply recommended for coastal navigation less than 2 NM from shelter.

As this is essential communication and therefore safety equipment, we recommend that you have a portable VHF when traveling in the dinghy and in addition to your grab bag, whatever your navigation category.
