Shakespeare Marine Antennas & Electronics



For over a century, Shakespeare has maintained a winning tradition of getting there first with the best. This is particularly evident today as other antenna manufacturers promote “innovations” that the company pioneered years ago and now regard as standard features. Take, for example, low angle of radiation. Shakespeare developed low angle techniques in marine antennas in the 1960s. Or take fiberglass randomes, hand-soldered connections, brass and copper elements, or metal ferrules for demanding conditions. Or ultra-smooth, extra durable, polyurethane finishes. All were introduced, and remain superior, in Shakespeare antennas.

Boaters worldwide know and trust Shakespeare innovation, performance, quality and reliability. Command and communication centers aboard ships of the U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Navy and military services around the globe count on Shakespeare for antenna design, technology and quality manufacture. Shakespeare Company LLC was founded in 1897 as a fishing reel manufacturer by William Shakespeare, Jr. and has been making fishing line and trimmer line for over 65 years. In 2007 Shakespeare Company LLC was acquired by Jarden Corporation; a leading provider of a diverse range of consumer products with a portfolio of over 100 trusted, quality brands sold globally.
