True you need a license for VHF, not very hard to do. I live on the south coast and VHF is the only way to go, 27mhz is virtually useless down here, a lot of times only being a Km away is unreadable.
However as Charlie B2 said UHF is used on inland waters so it gets to be a catch22 situation.
It also depends on how far you are preparing to go out to sea etc as to your requirements.
I have not tried the dual band sets so can't comment with any great advise.
