Are you bringing in the new year on the water? Is it part of your family tradition to sail onto your local lake, the ocean, or into the bay to watch fireworks with the cool water breeze blowing through your hair and the fresh scent of 2017 in the air? While sailing into the sunset sounds peaceful, too much quiet can make some guests go a little stir crazy on the water. As you wait patiently for the clock to strike midnight, wouldn’t it be great if you had some commercial-free entertainment echoing in the darkness? Whether you’re going to spice up a date with some classic jazz tunes or really send out 2016 with a bangin’ rock concert, we’re sure you’ll enjoy SiriusXM Radio on your boat. The key is to snag a marine kit that will hook to your boat’s speaker system, and the rest can be found in the sky.
Choosing between Two Awesome SiriusXM Radios for your Boat
Life on the boat, or even just an evening, means there’s little-to-no radio reception. That means the mixtape you made over the summer may be a bit outplayed. SiriusXM Radio gives you access to hundreds of different satellite radio channels that will stream clearly through the satellite radio antenna made especially for a boat or other marine craft.
Currently, there are two kits that make it easy to listen to SiriusXM radio on the boat: OnyX EZ Marine Kit With Marine Antenna and SiriusXM OnyX Plus Marine Kit With Antenna.
For the most part, these two kits are going to be the same pieces that deliver high quality entertainment to you and your boat guests. First and foremost, both kits are weatherproof and waterproof, meaning everything that makes going out on the boat awesome is no worry for this entertainment kit. The main difference is the satellite radio receiver. The OnyX EZ or the OnyX Plus, which will it be?
The OnyX EZ Marine Kit with Marine Antenna
It costs just $119 and will ship in one business day.
This simple kit allows you to hook up to your SiriusXM Radio subscription on your boat with ease. Navigating the system is easy, too; that’s why they put it in the name of the product! The OnyX EZ receiver is a clear, blue digital display that shows the name of the station, artist, and song. The OnyX EZ receiver is best for the simple-minded folk who know what stations they want to listen to and can navigate off the 10 preset channels this receiver holds.
