VHF in my opinion is a vital and invaluable tool to have in any boat. Having said that, there is almost no use for it, except in an emergency, on Winnipesaukee. Next to nobody has a radio, and the ones that do, usually are not "tuned in" either physically or mentally.

Like others have said, NHMP does not even carry VHF radios in their boats.

My opinion, get a fixed mount, 25w VHF and always carry a cell phone.
