Peter:
I use several times verticals on islands , most of the
times we put it the beach or near the beach. but one
time we use a DX-88 in a rocky island where we
install the antena around 50 ft from the sea where was
a rock , no sand , we use 40 75 ft radials , the
ones that fit in the sea side of the island we put in
the water,
if you can put a short stainles steel wires in the
water to fill that area, the other can be copper, in
some publication i read you don't need full size
radias in the water, just a short ones that can make
the contact
good luck
