Default stainless steel foil instead of copper for grounding Ham radio?

which can self-tune at some frequency


The only reason the boat has a tuner is we can't make an antenna
"self tune" but on a couple of frequencies.

All my ham antennas at home are "self tuning". No tuner is
required or wanted as they are so lossy.
