“Leave it all behind.” It’s a common phrase we like to use when we go boating and lucky for me my favorite lake has zero cell reception. But how do you stay connected with those in your group with no cell towers in sight? That’s easy. Just pick up a set of Talkabout T600 H20 radios from Motorola.
While permanent radios are common on larger vessels, most pontoon and deck boats aren’t equipped with them. That’s why the new hand-held two-way radios from Motorola are such a great fit for our trailerable boats.
The Motorola Talkabout T600 H20 water-proof radios are ideal for boaters, especially when you don’t have a cell phone signal. It has a mountain-to-valley range of up to 35 miles or up to six miles on the open water and is compatible with other radios. Other key features on the floating T600 H20 handhelds include 22 channels, an LED flashlight and 11 NOAA weather channels and alerts. All this with a suggested retail price of $199.99 for the set that includes rechargeable batteries and plug for up to 9 hours of use—or swap out to three AA batteries for up to 23 hours.
The water-activated flashlight feature includes a red LED to preserve night vision so other than being able to communicate, it’s also a great gadget to have in an emergency. That’s why we recommend these new Motorola radios for all boaters.
