Sounds like someone who (a) knows where he's going and (b) wants to tell everybody about it /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif

Either that, or MI6 are enlisting the help of yotties because they can't afford their own spyships any more..........

How many ..........

We saw a 38 foot yacht this year in st peter port, just husband and wife on board. they stored 3 6man liferafts on deck.

Just in case the first two don't open I guess.

Are you sure they're all VHF.?
Could be he's a ham...
If he's from Florida most American boats seem to sport about half a dozen as a norm.
They generally have them hooked up in phased pairs which gives good front and back gain.
The GPS types could also be navtex and the american version of that called SITOR.

If he's come across the pond it'll be a fair bet that he's also got HF/MF on there and probably an external satphone antenna.

Or probably a cunning plan to disassemble important bits of the boat and chuck 'em into to the two spare liferafts before she goes down.
He's probably a scrap dealer...
