I suppose they have cell phone models that require an account and work
anywhere a cell phone works but the ones we were looking at were stand
alone transmitters and were only good for about a half mile if the

What you really need is a concealed device that uplinks to a
satellite.

Here's one that I just found on Amazon:

The price is right and the reviews are favorable. In addition to the
purchase price it also costs about $100/year to keep an account going.

Wayne that looks a bit better than a dog collar. The 'collar' concept is a good idea but thought there could be something more advanced out there.

Something concealed with a good battery life. And- if you can afford the boat you can afford the security...
