[kipolowichify85]

Boaters are used to having VHF radios and sometimes cell phones to call for assistance, especially anglers fishing far offshore and often out of hailing distance of other boaters. The problem in North Carolina's offshore waters (and for other states with access to deep saltwater) is problems with marine radios often accompany being out of VHF range or cell-phone relay towers.
