A few boating youtube channels discuss Starlink and they have to turn it off when underway or they risk getting cancelled.

Whats the deal with mobile use? To me that just makes sense. I mean you can use your phone as a hotspot in the car, why not starlink or dish for that matter?

We use cellular. Maybe a little slower but doesn’t really subject to weather interference either

You would need a satellite tracking dish to use it underway. The big yachts have them but they ain't cheap.

I don't think you do with Starlink (not positive of that tho) plus we have satellite internet while underway all the time unless atmospheric conditions fuck with reception but I dont know who the service provider is.

Agreed. Alot of these guys don't like musk and his futuristic innovations. The govt didn't invite Tesla to the EV summit despite them being the leader in EV's.

Fuck Dish.  They’ve raised my prices twice in the last couple months 

$75 covers my internet and streaming tv... could probably dump the tv if we wanted, literally watch 4 or 5 channels max...
