Don’t Be That Boat
You’ve heard it before. Everyone’s checking in on VHF, AIS is pinging, sonar’s painting the bottom… then one boat fires up and suddenly half the electronics on the dock go fuzzy. “Guess Dave’s back - there goes the radio.”
Ignition wires are often the culprit. They act like antennas, blasting EMI/RFI across every receiver in range. And on a boat, where radios, chartplotters, depth finders, and GPS are crammed close to the engine bay, the problem only gets worse.
Why It Matters Offshore
Out on the water, comms aren’t just convenience - they’re safety. A noisy ignition can mean:
- Missed or garbled VHF transmissions.
- False or noisy sonar returns.
- Dropped GPS lock right when you need it most.
When your electronics are lifelines, ignition noise is not something you can ignore.
The Fix: Shielded IndestructaWires
Shielded IndestructaWires solve the problem at the source. Each lead is wrapped in a 95%+ copper braid, grounded to block EMI before it escapes. That means:
- 20–60 dB noise reduction (about a 1,000x drop in interference)
- Radios that stay clear
- Sonar that stays honest
- GPS that doesn’t flinch when you throttle up
Marine-Grade Toughness
Salt, heat, vibration - boats are brutal environments. IndestructaWires are built with fiberglass or silicone-glass jackets, high-temp silicone or ceramic boots, and reinforced ferrule ends. They’re designed to take abuse and keep working long after ordinary plug wires fail.
Bottom Line
If your engine noise is making you “that boat” - the one everyone hears before they see - it’s time to fix it. Shielded IndestructaWires give you spark energy without the static, so your electronics stay clear and your reputation stays intact.
