This is on a fishing boat out on the open ocean. Antenna Heights are not an issue. High Wind, boat pitching and snapping, Salt baths are. I have had both and preferred the 2000, talks a lot better (AM use) and a lot less noise than the A-99 (horrible noise) but that was an old school, proper length antenna
I am curious about this 12” addition, how it secures, will it hold up, etc. any feedback??
 

Open ocean? Whoa, very rough environment. i think the i max would fold eventually. Antron 99 just plain sucks in my opinion. Although it is shorter and fiberglass so it would probably hold up better. Personally i would shop around the commercial antenna market first. Thay are quality built for the intended application. Cb radio antennas are cheap and built that way. Hence the price. Go commercial
