There are a lot of carbon Marbleheads around that are not having problems, my Marblehead aerial pair are just under some deck patch material at deck level, and I don't have a problem. The 2.4Ghz doesn't really like going through anything, including water and people. Stand with 5 other sailors between your TX and the boat and you may get a problem. Don't forget that for maximum signal ideally your tx aerial and rx aerial should be parallel, i.e. don't "point" your tx aerial at the boat. With respect to distance I have recently been sailing a DF65 on a large lake at 350m away, and with model aircraft much further away.
