Something like this radio with the extended warranty. Just make sure to save the receipt.

For $20 more and you can get a floating one. As always keep the receipt and the box.

Small, submersible, and it floats. Just make sure it is on the USA setting. I was trying to talk to FloridaBoy on a couple trips out and figured out later I was on the Canada channel.

I can recommend standard horizon, brand new not going to be cheap, but you shouldn't cheap out on a critical piece of equipment like a raido. You can save someones life or maybe even yours. Besides you can listen to matt and jorge talk'n smack all day long too.

After a few years of hard use I had water enter my hx750 and it wouldn't turn on. No problem Standard Horizon is down the street from here in cypress. I took it in, no receipt, no questions asked, they replaced the unit free of charge. I also had an external mic go bad on me once, and they replaced that free of charge as well, even with no reciept.
