Great range in a tiny package
I bought this antenna and installed it on my 19ft flats boat. The tip of the antenna is around 10-12ft off the water surface. I paired it with a MPD Digital RG8X coaxial cable and very basic model Standard Horizon VHF. On any given day on the water I am 10-20 miles away from the local coast guard station. I get great signal and very clear audio monitoring channel 16 despite the antenna height.

Size may be different than Metz antenna
Product seems well made and worked flawlessly when attached to my vhf cable. However, if you are replacing a Metz sailboat mast antenna you should now that the body of the Shakespeare is longer than the Metz and may not fit in the space the Metz antenna did. Just important to be prepared to do a workaround our move it to a different spot.

GREAT antenna for my ski boat
Installed this on my 2001 Four Winns 180 ski boat. Works much better than I anticipated! This antenna says it's for sail boat masts, but let me tell you, even on the back deck of the ski boat it's range is pretty darn good (buddy's radio picked me up at 3 miles on lake powell.

Good Proven Marine Antenna
This is a good midgrade marine antenna. The really is no reason to go any better unless you are using a high dollar VHF.
