That's fine, but my response was because you said it was ok to use a ham radio on the marine bands which it is not. I don't think you should post on a forum to everyone that it is ok to do that. Just want to be clear on that point. If it's ok for us all to just ignore the law, then we can just put all the marine SSB dealer's out of business. We can just install our ham rigs, don't bother with a marine station license and operate on frequencies for any licensed service we want.

I have no idea how they got their station license with a HAM rig,

Because the license is for the station, not the radio. You don't have to own a radio to get a license to use one.
