The Jensen Marine Antenna part # 1181067 is made specifically for boats so that is what I would use instead of the Jensen Antenna part # AN519. The marine version has a coating to protect it from the elements and there is not a separate ground wire like there is for the above which can make things difficult when installing on a boat.
