Description

The Shakespeare V-Tronix Whipflex is a lightweight, ultra-slim masthead VHF antenna built around a flexible low-windage stainless steel whip. Weighing only 0.25kg, it is an industry benchmark for sailing yachts and RIBs and is chosen as original equipment by boatbuilders worldwide.

The Whipflex uses the popular V-Tronix solderless connector system for easy installation and end-of-season removal, and mounts on a 180mm nylon cranked bracket at the masthead. It is supplied with 20m of RG-58 coaxial cable terminated in a PL-259 plug and comes blister-packed with fitting instructions in 17 languages.
