Fairly new to the group. My wife and I purchased a 40' sailboat about 6
months ago and are ready for our first long trip, We plan to spend 2-3
months in the Florida keys and Bahamas--mostly the latter. Any suggestions
on a reasonably priced ( I know cheap is out of the question ) phone and
or data plans out there? Many thanks in advance for any and all
suggestions. Also open to starting an ongoing exchange of experiences with
any who have done or are doing similar trips.

It makes you a person who makes unhelpful and uncalled-for comments in
a public forum.

How many things have *you* asked advice about here.... things that you
"couldn't figure out"?

IIRC you have often gotten snippy when given advice/info that didn't
suit your prejudices; and you have not only often griped about how
much boat-stuff costs but made snarky comments about others more
expensive boats & gear (hence my remark about your Bolshevik
tendencies).

I followed this thread because it's a subject I'd like to learn more
about myself.. so tell us about *your* SSB/fax/ham, sat phone, or hi-
gain cell phone rig.

THANKS FOR ALL YOUR POSITIVE FEEDBACK sir thomas. Just for your info,
buying a used 40' sailboat does not make you a wealthy person. Also, the
wealthiest person in the world should be smart enough to ask questions
about cellular communications and internet availability in a part of the
world they have never been to. Not all areas of the world come up to the
perfect standards of communication you find in your little world.

Ok,, you win... I was wrong.. It has been snowing for weeks, I am out of
canned spam, and canned
chiily con carnaa, ... I can't get down the back steps... my cat left me
for the cat across the street....
my neighbors are dead inside their home and no one cares because it is too
cold to go and check on them...

Thank god I have this computer so I can vent...

Good luck with the 40 footer..

My phone is one of the Virgin prepay jobs.

Doesn't work..

But... it is the only time I get to hold a Virgin..

So .. I'm keeping it!

virgins every time you blow up!

I got depressed and called the suicide hotline over Christmas....
The call went to a call center in Pakistan.

They got all excited when I told them I was suicidal and asked how big a
truck I could drive.....
