OK, you bought your dream boat with that lottery jackpot you won. Let's
assume you purchased a brand spanking new Nordhavn 57
http://www.nordhavn.com/57/overview.php4 .

It is time now to equip it for a long range ocean travel.

Let's start with electronics including navigation, communications,
entertainment.

Again, money is no object.

Long range ocean travel?

Two of everything. Any major brand. Separate components so a single
electronics failure doesn't wipe out an entire nav system.

Particularly important:

SSB radio
Satellite communication system
Weather Fax
One of the radars a 72nm system
GPS Plotter(s)

Chuck,
Are two athletic perky woman enough?

and is it necessary to keep them in separate components?

I don't know about separate components, but if you have two perky,
athletic women aboard for entertainment purposes it might be wise to
keep them in separate compartments. If one of the two is a wife and the
other a mistress, you better opt for entirely separate vessels.....
