The FCC is the best source of information for this.  There used to be a lot 
of talk about this in the braille edition of Popular Communications.
I think a shore station license is required, and there are probably some 
antenna/transmitter requirements to go along with it.  Operation on marine 
radio frequencies in inland areas is prohibited, but I would think that if 
your tower is line-of-sight to some ocean or river areas you would be OK.

I have been asked to assist with stranded vessels in the gulf of Mexico.
I will be using Marine band radio.
Is there a license required for using a marine band radio from a residence?
Thanks very much.
