Navico 000-15859-001 1m Black Quick-Fit VHF Antenna

Navico 1m (3.3-ft) Black Fiberglass Quick-Fit VHF Antenna

The Navico 000-15859-001 is a compact, high-performance 1.0 m (3.3 ft) marine VHF antenna engineered for RIBs, powerboats, center consoles, and small commercial vessels. Built with a durable fiberglass whip coated in a high-gloss, UV-resistant black polyurethane finish, it combines sleek aesthetics with long-term resistance to harsh marine salt-spray environments.

Featuring Navico's fast-mount Quick-Fit connector system, the antenna can be screwed on or removed from compatible bases without unsoldering or re-threading the coaxial cable. Delivering a 3 dBi gain, it offers an ideal balanced radiation pattern for short-to-medium range VHF communications and AIS (Automatic Identification System) transceivers on rolling or pitching vessels.

Key Features

• Quick-Fit Connector System: Enables rapid installation and effortless removal during trailering, storage, or bridge clearance without altering coax cabling.

• 3dBi Moderate Gain: Provides a wide vertical beamwidth pattern ideal for smaller powerboats and vessels subject to significant pitch and roll.

• UV-Resistant Black Finish: Heavy-duty fiberglass tube sealed with high-gloss black lacquer to prevent yellowing, chalking, or splintering under direct sunlight.

• Wideband Performance: Optimized for all international marine VHF channels (156 to 162 MHz), including AIS data frequencies.
