Dinghy Rope have recently supplied 6 iCom handheld VHF radios and a charging base to a local sailing club.
The radios are going to be used to for a variety of events the sailing club host and will also help in the expansion of their RYA Training Center.
Upto now the club had been using individual radios on their own stand, quite often the chargers would get moved or a radio misplaced where it hadn't been put away in the correct location. The charging base gives a major advantage in keeping the radios in the same place while also ensuring they are fully charged when they're needed.
The radios have the following features:
Each individual VHF radio charging base is made to order by iCom where they fit the specific adpator to charge your radio of choice.
The base also has a new smart charging function. This microprocessor-controlled function automatically re-charges the battery as needed to prevent charge from being completely drained. Therefore, even if the radio happens to remain turned-on and keep receiving signals in the charger, it can constantly be re-charged with sufficient charge left for the next use.
If you would like to talk to us about supplying VHF radios and accessories then give us a call on 07793 953564 or drop us an email info@dinghy-rope.co.uk.

I recently purchased the Sprint 15 Trampoline Cover from Sailing Chandlery, and I couldn't be happier with my choice. The cover is made from high-quality PVC material that feels durable and built to last, even in harsh weather conditions.
The fit on my Sprint 15 is absolutely perfect—it's snug and secure, ensuring that the trampoline stays protected from rain, sun, and dirt. The attention to detail, like reinforced edges and reliable fastenings, really sets this cover apart.
It’s clear that a lot of thought went into the design, making it both functional and easy to use. The vibrant blue color adds a nice touch and is easy to spot in the boat park.
Shipping was fast, and the customer service from Sailing Chandlery was top-notch. They kept me updated throughout the process and ensured a smooth transaction.
If you're looking for a reliable cover for your Sprint 15, I highly recommend this product. It's a fantastic investment to keep your boat in great shape!
The Topper rope pack arrived shortly after I ordered it. Very good service from Sailing Chandlery. I will fit it when I get home.
The sail numbers were simple to attach
Great value for money and swiftly delivered as always by Sailing Chandlery.
Very good sunglasses, I’ve just had eye surgery and was struggling with peripheral light sensitivity, these are great for that and will be terrific next season sailing.
Great to see these available again, much better quality and sensitivity than the alternatives
We have just purchased the Mersea twin Laser box trailer. Ordering the trailer, and adding the lid afterwards, was easy and straightforward with accurate lead times for its delivery. We paid for delivery to the South Coast and the trailer arrived bang on time along with other items we ordered. Fantastic customer service all round!
The trailer had its first trip this weekend, a 3hr drive on a mixture of town, country and motorway roads and it was a dream to tow - no noise save the odd rattle across potholes, easy to see in the car mirrors and very easy to connect and pull. It's also easy to manoeuvre two by just two people.
Our junior sailor was delighted by capacious box section with two access points and he was able to stow all of his kit to travel and then all covers, bags and kit whilst on the water today.
We're very pleased with the trailer - thank you Sailing Chandlery!
Good quality splicing tool, sensible price and swiftly delivered. Thank you
