This same vessel has been on offer for quite sometime now. I last saw it in
October, on a ship broker's site that I often visit. It was then offered at
5,000,000. Quite a price to pay for a DX- pedition!
I agree, it would only count as a /MM. As far as operating while alongside,
International radio regulations prohibit the use of HF radio equipment while
in harbor.
