Shortwave radio for out on The Ocean ?

Hobo Convention Britt Iowa (a couple of my old
buddies were once thinking about hopping a Freight Train just to see
what it is like,their wives talked them out of it..
Know a guy who, being ninteen at the time, said he walked into a freigh
yard in Okland ( AT NIGHT )
told a guy he was a College student heading back to NY.. & they said
" be careful."..& pointed to a train..
Got a ride all the way to Bonneville salt flats , where a railroad
guard kicked him off
Hobo Convention.. Ride to.. - Should be doeable if your in shape..
Travel in pairs & such.. Even Legit... get credentials, hook up with a
Newspaper & do a story on it.. or a $50 to a railroad worker Might work
too
:-)
In Mexico, used to be able to ride up front with the Engineer on the
Narrow gague Railway, cooking tortillas on the Boiler at night riding
through the countryside..
I think Freighter travel is the way to do that nowadays..
You can come back unscathed from that one
