Icom M25 VHF Radio


A compact waterproof VHF radio for boating and marine paddlesports. Highly recommended for personal safety, especially if paddling solo on the sea. This radio has a floating design and will flash if dropped into the water making it easier to locate the unit. 5W transmit power with 11 hour battery life with typical use makes this a great option for general day-use for boating and kayaking on the sea. Recharging time is approximately 3 hours using the supplied Micro-B USB charger with AC adaptor. Large buttons make the M25 easy to use and the 550mW audio output provides easy listening even in windy conditions. A backlit LCD screen clearly displays operating channel, battery life indicator and other useful information to make this VHF easy to operate and understand.


The compact and slim design means that the M25 VHF radio will fit inside the pockets on many buoyancy aids. The radio also has a clip so it can be attached to jacket pockets and other places for easy access.
