Would any of you share with us what your are using? Sat phone, satelite systems, etc.
2 can's and a very long string

I had VHF for coastal, and had rented for me Sat phones for offshore work, but was not impressed in their reliability.

That was a couple of year's ago.

This time it'll be HF and VHF for the newie.
But still researching the HF bit.
