Really not a pi___ng match - honest.  I just can’t stress enough how valuable 
and helpful the ham community can be.  Please, if you venture offshore, take 
the time to learn and pursue a license.  I am not bashing the sat phone - I had 
one on board when cruising.  It just wouldn’t be my go-to.  Ok, yes, I would 
grab it because it is quick and might work.  I’d do that while the SSB was 
warming up.
