I had a 160m vertical out in the sea and I have to use 4 elevared radials
with the ends going to floaters  and holdig them tight with steel chain,
The problem with just grounding them in the sea was that on high tide the
resonant frq was changing apromaxly 60 khz up from the low tide frq. Change
in sea level was 6-7 feet. With the elevated radials there was a 5Khz
change.
