The replacement VHF charges correctly. I turned the AIS collision alarms off because they were beyond annoying. However, as a backup off shore I could see it being very useful.
I opted to get one before my singlehand ip here because the VHF at the helm doesn't work and I needed a way to contact the marina.
I thimk this is roughly equivalent to the one Wayne has.
