Hand held VHF radio

Who makes the best hand held VHF radio? I don't want to drill holes and install an atenna on the boat if I don't have too.

Thanks
Don

I use a standard horizon that has an optional headset with mic. It is a one ear headset, small and light weight like a walkman headphone.

I have returned more unidens than any other brand.

Icom would be another choice. West marine has both.

my 2 cents
