| In practice
Niki and I are enroute with a delivery of a William Garden ketch. We picked up the boat in Z-town, Mexico and used the SSB for net check-ins and weather updates from a router( don on Summer Passage). Currently we are sitting in Puesta del sol, Nicaragua and still check-in with the net for this far South. For all of the cruising boats out and about there is one key peice of equipment and that is the SSB. With the exception of Ham I suppose it is the cheapest and dare I say most reliable for long distance communication including email.
