200 foot+ VHF cable run
 
Looking for advice on what type of cable to use for a cable run from
an antenna on a 210-foot antenna. This is a marine band VHF antenna
that will be used for receiving only. Probably a 6-foot Shakespear
antenna.

at vhf rg213 would not hurt.
or ldf if you are really worried.

just as another note:
why use a shakespear?
put up a 10 or 15ft dualband co lin while you can

that way if you want to run anything else or even passs the very easy ham
ticket, he presto aerial already done.
plus it will by far out perform the shakespear
