Default Looking for PacSat Info

Hello group,

I am a cruising sailboat owner. I have been using the Pactor Winlink
network for email but I was wondering how difficult it would be to
setup a station to use the packet forwarding capabilities of the Ham
satellites. There are limitations on a sailboat of course. Big dishes
are out and because of the rocking and rolling motion, directional
antennas are probably out too.
Anyway, does anyone know where I can find some info on how to setup
such a system.
