So, Jonathan, I'm carrying a spare fixed radio because I have it, and
the same goes for the antennas...one is a little rail mount and the
other is a rollup that goes right on the back of the radio. If they
were taking up any kind of space or were in the way, I guess I'd leave
them home. But we have more space than we know what to with. Maybe
we'll lose our rig and the handheld will fail...I don't see a reason
NOT to carry it any more than I see a reason not to carry a few extra
life jackets and flares. Doesn't hurt...might help.
In the world of Katy and Scotty this is crazy behavior. Fine by me!

Defensive attitude there, Robbie...you can stuff your boat full of
as much stuff as you want...
for that matter, why not install a deep freeze and an automatic
washer and dryer? That way
you'll be prepared for every contingency.
