  @LaRea. Find out what the Coast Guard uses or what all the commercial fishing boats use

  The universe of marine hailer speakers consists of three options:  cr@ppy white plastic, battleship gray, and red.  
  
  Well, actually, Kahlenberg makes a nice system in white.  For $900.

  Is that whom speaks from the hailer? LOL!

  
  

  How often and what do you use your hailer for? Do you have to keep the admiral in check? (I bet it's the other way around)  just curious...

  I rarely use it.  I've used it to talk to dock hands when approaching a slip.  And if the front canvas is totally closed, it's useful for hearing what the person on the foredeck is saying.  I'd never install a dedicated hailer on a boat this size, but it's a built-in feature on my VHF.

  He likes to threaten the dock hands from a safe distance.  10 bucks says he has his boat hook tips sharpened as well.  😝😝😝.  All im seeing that looks beefy on defender is 8ohms.
