The other thing to consider is floatation.  Most/all radios sink like a 
rock.  If you are butterfingered like I am this is a consideration.  I 
didn't want it tethered due to entanglement considerations.  I found a 
neoprene case at West Marine.  This didn't quite make it positive bouancy, 
but adding a small piece of floatation to the cord did the trip.

I also have the Icom IC-M2A and love it.
