Default mixing and matching devices with boats 9/16 inch antenna connector

Hello all.

I have a Motorola 3 watt bag that works great, but the antenna
connector that was soldered to the inside of the chasis came loose
inside. This is okay though, as I was looking for a way to connect the
phone to the boats fat 9/16 inch antenna adapter anyways.

I don't know the the types of antennas, but I have 3 devices (with
different antennas) that i'd like to connect to boats antenna.

The first is hand held VHF radio - made by humminbird model vhf5
platinum. It's antenna unscrews off. The male stub is about 3/8 inch
in diameter.

The second, is the bag phone who has no antenna, but the whole for an
antenna adapter will only allow a connector about the size of the hand
held uhf radio. The male stub the phone originally looked like the
size of the uhf handheld , is actually smaller at 5/16 inch in
diameter. On this device, I need to be able to fasten the adapter to
the devices chasis with nuts on each side.

The third, is my cell phone, a v120c Motorola. Not sure if this will
work, but i'd like to try connecting my cell to the boat's antenna to
see if signal improves out at sea. The antenna on the phone actually
broke off - though it works phone. The male stub, which can't be
screwed onto, is 1/4 inch in diameter.

The boats antenna connector is a female that connects to a 9/16 inch
male stub (on radio) - i think this is the standard boat VHF antenna
female connector.

Anybody know where I might find these adapters? and what their
official names / dimensions are.

Many thanks for any help or information.
