They are a GREAT radio and well worth the $$! There is a little cheaper one but it still has lots of bells and whistles. It is $99.99

Okay guys, I'm going to have to try one out. Do any of you run gas boats by chance because I'll be running FE and gas. I doubt there would be any issues but you never know.
