Default Re: Sat Phone, whos got what???

Its funny. A friend, Tony has one on his 31' Rampage. He uses it to call his wife from the canyon.

200 or 500 minutes. That's a lot of minutes to spend on keeping the wife happy back home.

Don't know what kind of emergency will take 3 hours talk time to USCG to describe. His trips make me glad I'm divorced... don't need shore sh*t ruining my already expensive fishing trip. LMAO

I pick it up at the end of June and it last most of the season.
