Shakespeare 5226-XT 8' Black VHF Marine Antenna

The Shakespeare 5226-XT 8' Black VHF Antenna is a high-performance marine communication antenna designed to deliver dependable VHF radio reception and transmission for coastal and offshore boating. With its extra-tall 8-foot length and sleek black finish, this antenna offers robust range and a clean, modern look that complements dark-trimmed boats, radar arches, and hardtops.

Built with marine-grade materials and Shakespeare’s Galaxy-inspired design, the 5226-XT provides enhanced signal clarity and durability in harsh marine environments. Its fibreglass construction is engineered to resist UV exposure, salt spray, vibration, and weather extremes, making it a reliable choice for powerboats, sailboats, center consoles, cruisers, and commercial vessels.

The 5226-XT antenna is compatible with standard marine VHF mounts (sold separately) and installs easily with conventional coaxial cable connections. With its combination of performance, durability, and style, this Shakespeare VHF antenna is ideal for boaters who want strong communication capability and visual appeal on the water.

Key Performance Features

  • 6dB High Gain: Maximizes your communication range for offshore fishing and coastal cruising.

  • Extra-Tough (XT) Construction: Stronger, stiffer radome designed to withstand the forces of high speeds and high winds on hardtops and T-tops.

  • Exclusive Black Finish: High-gloss black polyurethane coating provides a modern, premium look while protecting the fiberglass from UV damage.

  • Stainless Steel Ferrule: Heavy-duty 1"-14 thread mounting nut for a professional, secure fit on standard marine mounts.

  • Low-Loss Coax: Pre-wired with 20 feet of RG-8/X "low-loss" cable, delivering more signal power to your radio than standard RG-58.

  • DC Grounded: Designed to bleed off static and read as a "short circuit" during an ohm meter test for lightning protection.

  • 1 x Shakespeare 5226-XT Galaxy Black Antenna

  • 1 x 20-foot RG-8/X Coaxial Cable (Pre-attached)
