The order includes over 1,000 427-N-KIT antennas – one of Shakespeare® Marine’s best-selling VHF antennas – and is due to go into production in May and be delivered in June 2023.
The 427-N-KIT antenna is ideal for smaller power and work boats, particularly fishing and commercial boats. It features a low angle technique to increase signal range and reduce power wastage, and comes with a 4186 Nylon ratchet mount, making lowering the antenna quick and easy.
Dave Manasseh, European Sales Manager for Shakespeare® Marine, comments, “We’re delighted to report such a great order for one of our UK-manufactured antennas – it highlights the growth of the market and gives us confidence this will continue. The order is a testament to the fantastic work and craftsmanship of our Shakespeare team.”
In 2022, Shakespeare® Marine brought the manufacturing of four of its best-selling VHF antennas back to the UK, including the 427-N-KIT antenna.
