I picked up a couple of these.

This is one of the few radios that has both GMRS and VHF built in to one unit. The GMRS channels allow a combination of 1,815 channel codes so you an your buddy can be on a private (walkie talkie) channel without transmitting over VHF channels. It also has a rewind button to reply the last message. I use this alot since I'm old and deaf.

"Dual Band Receive and Transmit. One button allows you to switch from the GMRS to VHF bands. You can talk to GMRS users on the dock or ashore and easily switch to the VHF Band for routine or emergency vessel to vessel or vessel to shore communications. One BAND key switches you between bands.

Provides access to all 10 NOAA channels for 24-hour weather and hazard information
Fully submersible to JIS7 standards, and backed by a manufacturer's 3-year warranty"
