Default Fuel tanks and SSB counterpoise.

Just can't figure out how to get a Rhombic on a sailboat. We don't expect
one antenna to do it all. I have separate antennas for HF, VHF, TV, GPS,
WX SAT, DGPS, FM, HAM VHF, HAM UHF. If only a single antenna
could do it all.

Wires with a big coil in the middle is what I'm talking about. I guess
this is a semantics thing. I can't get used to calling it a choke cause
in fixed station if we wanted to change freq that much we went out and
threw up another 3 curtain full wave Rhombic. You mobile guys are
strange, you want one antenna to do it all.
