Its rugged, waterproof design, full five watts of power, and enhanced digital capabilities ensure superior audio quality and security, making it an indispensable tool for the beach staff. This powerful device, coupled with the picturesque backdrop of Point Pleasant Beach, truly captures the spirit of the Jersey Shore.

Whether by land, air, or sea, Icom knows how to communicate.
