I'm looking for any information on how to go about getting full internet
capabilities on board. I've researched some of the various ways from the
wifi setup to the expensive dishes made solely for satelite internet but
don't know the pluses and minus's of them. Do most marina's today offer
wifi? what about the expensive dishes? Can You get both internet and Tv
through a dish or must they be seperate dishes?
I'm in the process of purchasing a 1981 Hunter 37 cutter as a liveaboard
and
plan on cruising with her in the future. She currently is in a slip in
Rockport Tx and We plan on keeping her there probably for the next 6
months
to a year before we head out and I sure would like to be able to get some
sort of internet access at the most economical price of course.
So if anybody has tackled this problem on their own boats I'd sure
appreciate some info.
Thanks,
Chi Chi

Where will you be? Are you looking for access at sea, anchored, and/or
at a marina?
