Default Emergency marine radio - aviation 121.5 radio in a pinch?



"Mitchell Gossman" wrote in message

I'm an airplane pilot with an aviation Icom handheld that will
broadcast on 121.5. Any other pilots using this on your boat, esp.
when out of cellphone range, for emergency use rather than spending
the $$$ on a separate marine VHF radio?

Marine radios are fairly inexpensive, with some under $100. Why take the
risk? Besides, a handheld has pretty limited range.
