Marine

We have a proud boating tradition in New Zealand. We’re an island nation after all. The ocean has been
our primary playground for as long as we can remember.

Because of this we’re known globally for our prowess on the big blue, with everything from boat design and building to winning the America’s Cup…and of course our world renowned antennas. For a little nation like ours, that’s called “punching above your weight.” 

When you’re on the water, a crucial tool to help you communicate with other vessels and land, and stay safe, is your marine antenna. These may not be the sexiest purchase – although ours are pretty – but it’s something you should never skimp on. With Pacific Aerials’ antennas, it’s the innovative technology that’s on the inside that sets us apart from all others. All our knowledge and experience is wrapped up in every one of our antennas to ensure you have reliable communications that go the distance.  

All our antennas and accessories are designed, engineered, manufactured and individually tuned and tested in Auckland, New Zealand, where we have some of the world’s harshest marine and weather conditions. We have never outsourced any of our work or used inferior componentry, and never will. That’s because lives are on the line. Hundreds of thousands of boaties around the globe have confidence in our products and rely on us to stay in touch with their world. You can too. When you buy Pacific Aerials antennas you know you’re in safe hands. 

Our range of Very High Frequency (VHF) antennas have been developed to outperform all others. These beautifully designed antennas are also rugged; they’re built to withstand whatever you throw at them. Each VHF antenna is individually tuned and tested to ensure your needs are always met when communicating on the water. Quality marine VHF radios will perform well when matched with our marine antennas.

Automatic Identification System (AIS) is a marine tracking system used to identify and locate vessels by electronically exchanging data with nearby vessels. Data is transmitted with a higher frequency than standard marine VHF, making a dedicated AIS antenna a necessity to ensure maximum performance and safety of yourself and others at sea.

Pacific Aerials’ range of Pentaband cellular antennas are designed to provide outstanding performance and coverage across all cellular bands, including 700-800-900-1800/1900-2100MHz. You can change your provider without changing your antenna.

HF/SSB antennas need to be connected to an antenna’s tuner via a high-voltage insulator. It is extremely important that the mounting system radiates effectively. We recommend using the longest antenna possible and to consult an experienced HF radio installer if you have any doubts about the installation procedure, as a high degree of technical ability is required.

Choose from our range of AM/FM antennas to achieve outstanding performance while listening to your favourite radio station on the water. Like all antennas, height above water and an all round clear view is essential for good coverage. If you have nowhere to mount a dedicated AM/FM antenna, consider a VHF/AM/FM splitter, which won’t interfere with your your VHF antenna.

Marine terrestrial TV antennas have to be omni-directional because a boat underway or swinging at anchor is constantly changing its position affecting its bearing to the transmitter. Pacific Aerials’ amplified TV antenna is digital ready and will make the most of a weak signal. But it won’t magically create a signal if none is present.
