Unveiling the Revolution in Antenna Installation
Introducing an avant-garde leap in antenna innovation: the Shakespeare QuickConnect Antenna System. This masterpiece not only simplifies your VHF antenna storage and security but also redefines the connection process. Imagine a world where you don't need to disconnect any wires to stow away your antenna. This is that world.
Under the Hood: The Tech Behind the Magic
Ever wondered what separates the QuickConnect System from the conventional antennas? It's the ingenious placement of the cable. While traditional systems have the cable attached to the antenna, the QuickConnect System anchors it to the mount. And with the inclusion of coax connectors right at the antenna base and mount, connection becomes a breeze. Simply twist your antenna onto its mount, and voila! No messy wires. No soldering.
Revel in the glory of Shakespeare's legacy – the screw-on/screw-off feature, previously exclusive to the top-tier Phase III® antennas, is now within reach through the QuickConnect series for entry-level VHF antennas.
However, a word of caution – remember to match your QuickConnect antenna with its corresponding QuickConnect mount. They’re a pair made in heaven.
Why QuickConnect is the Boater’s Best Friend
Do you store your boat in racks? Maybe under a low-roofed moorage? Or perhaps you prefer a snug boat cover or shrink-wrapping during the winter? Whatever your storage preference, QuickConnect antennas are your perfect match. And if you're stepping away from your beloved vessel, secure your antenna investments by simply detaching the QuickConnect antennas and placing them safely below deck.
Pre-Installed Precision: The Coax Cable Advantage
Each QuickConnect mount graces you with a 20 ft factory-sealed RG-58 coax cable. Not just that, it also comes with a high-grade, gold-plated PL-259-CP-G connector. All set to stretch into the boat's interior. And the installation? A mere 7/32" hole for the plain cable end. The final touch? The DIY solderless, screw-on connector after routing the cable to the radio.

Quality Boat Parts is a reseller. Many items include a manufacturer’s warranty, and all warranty service is handled directly by the manufacturer. We do not manage or administer warranty claims on behalf of customers.
Warranty terms, coverage, and duration are set by each manufacturer. Issues involving defects, repairs, or replacements must be addressed with the manufacturer’s support team. When available, the warranty period is listed on the product page. If it is not shown, contact us or the manufacturer for details before purchasing.
To start a claim, the customer must contact the manufacturer and follow their process. Keep your proof of purchase and original packaging, and register the product if the manufacturer requires it, as these are often needed for warranty service.
