I am not sure what a carryout is. Maybe a satellite dish you set up and then manually dial in to a satellite in the sky? If so, that should work on the boat but would need to be placed on the dock like you said. We sold our boat last year that we lived on. It had a satellite dish that was mounted inside a fiberglass dome. The dish was mounted on a gimble,(we used Direct TV for our service) and when powered up would search the skies for the correct satellite. Once it found it, it would lock onto it so no matter direction the boat turned, the dish was still locked on the satellite. This is the type of setup you want if you are at anchor or want the TV on while under way. There are several manufactures of these systems and sizes for all boats. The one we had was made by KVH, a very popular brand, work well, and expensive.
