I use www.SatelliteOutfitters.com . I was just looking at their rates as I
need to recharge my satellite pre-paid card and it looks like you can get a
phone for about $35/week and then pay for your usage.

Satellite email/phone for a trip Miami- St.Martin?

I'm about to go on a trip on a 31ft sloop from Miami to St.Martin in
Caribbean and would like to remain connected with the world.. On
previous trips I have used SSB sailmail which worked quite well, but
on this boat there is no SSB radio nor time to get and install it.

Any suggestion on a place in Miami etc that will rent/help with a sat
phone for the period of the trip and hopefully provide email option
without breaking the bank? I'd like to return
this rental once I'll get there. Other options

Thanks for suggestions M
