WARNING
Don't confuse the Garmin inReach Mini 2 with a Marine VHF Radio. Although the inReach Mini 2 can communicate globally with any cellphone (assuming the phone is connected to the cellular network) or any other Garmin inReach product, the inReach Mini 2 is not capable of direct communication with line-of-sight marine VHF radios. It is capable of two way text messaging communications via the Iridium satellite network with global reach, and interactive SOS communications with the IERCC, a 24/7 staffed emergency response coordination center.
NOTICE: Garmin tells us the two most common user issues with the inReach are failing to include country code in front of contact numbers and not updating the device firmware periodically. All US phone numbers must begin with a "1" country dialing code before the area code. InReach firmware updates should be applied to the device periodically as soon as possible when they are announced. Also, some jurisdictions outside the US regulate or prohibit the use of satellite communications devices. It is the responsibility of the user to know and follow all applicable laws in the jurisdictions where the device is intended to be used.
