Sat Phone
I would never again leave the states for Central and South America. I have an Iridium Sat phone that I brought along for safety. As it turns out being able to call directly home saved me from missing a land sell and enable me with the help of tha American Embassy here in Costa Rica to do all the paper work with out returning home.
Bottom line the peace of mind would have been enought but I would have missed out on income had I not had it.
I might add that one of my riding buddies crashed in copper canyon and although were able to handle the situation the phone could have been a life saver. Cheap Insurance I would say
