That Skymate looks pretty cool. The $1000 puts it way out of my

You need to check out Skymate.com if all you need is email.
Connectivity is total via low earth orbit satellites. Cost is very

Greetings-- We're planning a trip to Alaska next spring via the
standard inside passage route. Our boat is a Victory Tug 37. I'd
like to have uninterrupted internet access along the way, aboard the
boat. If this is possible, how do you go about it? Any advice or
suggestions will be much appreciated. Sorry to be so
computer-disadvantaged. Thanks, Dick BehanLNVT "Annie"
