What are my options to get weather on my boat in Honduras?

Leave it outside?

I really don't know. I doubt there is a THT in Honduras. Do they have wx channels via VHF there? Are you looking for satellite weather?

We are right on the edge of getting Serius. So I would think I could but will check when I get back.

Well, if you get it reliably, you could use that pay service.

You can get Sirius, to me it's not worth it. I had it on a C80 canceled after the first month. Although I am 100% positive it works, it won't show you radar animations lower than the Yucatan if they are important to you. Better to just get an iPhone or something then you can use the internet to check the weather. (within cell range)
