Satellite phone vs SSB radio?

You don't need a raft to charter (which I think is a mistake) and alot of cod boats just carry the 4 man to be legal for giant fishing, but have 8 on board for charters.

My question is always "which 4 get in the raft when it matters?".
Won't catch me offshore on a boat with a sh**t raft.

This is what I have. I'm never more than 20 miles offshore and never take more than 4 people on a charter.
