I take it you've had a bad experience with that radio?
I run 5 boats off one of those radios & there are at least 5 other people with sets in our club. No one has had any issues with them yet.
Yes they are cheap & don't have any of the features of the more expensive sets, but they are OK in my book.
Just my 2 cents worth.
