Dieter,
I suspect that the Elecraft radios will not open up like older
radios from Icom or Kenwood. However, that should not be a problem with
email over HF if you use the Winlink network and Winmor vice an SCS
modem and Sailmail. Getting onto the marine SSB frequencies might be a
problem.
I have worked with a number of boat owners who sail in blue water.
My suggestion to them is that they have both a marine SSB and a ham
radio on board. My thinking on this is redundancy for safety at sea.

Hy @ all,
I would like to replace my old IC-706 with a K3 or KX3 (with 100 watts PA) but
for that I need to know, if it is possible to send on the sailmail.com channels
and on the ssb ship-ship frequencies at 4 6 8 12 and 16 mhz like my old IC706.
I think, it´s not an issue like all modern transceivers have this option, but I did not
found any informations how to "open" it for K3 and KX3
all the best to you and yours,
fair winds for the sailors,
Dietmar, DL4HAO
