Re: Bahamas

radios normally have a range of around 20-30 miles max for regular vhf any longer you need SSB, sat phones will work, cell phones normally will only get signal 10-20 miles out max and in most places its much less, GPS works anywhere

Forgot to mention that is a high traffic area, so you will likely be within VHF range of several vessels at any given time and USCG/very large ships have much longer range with their vhf equipment due mostly to antennae height.

Nextel and cingular absolutely suck in PR. Although the weather is awesome and the water warm.
