Its technically illegal here to use without a licence for the radio and one for the operator.
However lesser of 2 evils. Coastguard would rather people go to sea with no licence but a radio than to go to sea with no radio at all due to not buying a licence.
But for a small amount of money and 1 day people can get properly trained in the international standards for VHF/DSC. Its daft not to do so.
