Morning everyone....I just thought I would toss this out... a few yrs back.. I was cruising.. facing the same waaaaaaay to much mail on my server to download via winmail or whatever it is called via the SSB or wifi if i could find one.. we did not have an antenna on the boat.. I sat down one morning on the sock outside a place and got me a yahoo account for my lists that i liked to read.. then later got a Gmail account.. the pluss is that anyplace I go, I can access my email.. it is all on servers and not on my laptop... if there is anything I want to truly save.. I can cut and paste it to a file. Even better is that I have stopped seeing spam and attempts to hit me with a virus via email. I prefer to send photos via yahoo..they come out full size.. gmail automatically resizes them to thumbnails that don't resize for my aging eyes...
I have some freinds who have some awesome WIFI antenna setups on thier boats... let me see if I can get a url or two for them... Air Cards CONUS are great..simplhy fantastic... once you leaeve CONUS then you are sol...it is WIFI.... www.caribwx.com is a good site.....this is the forecast page for the caribean...usvi and points south.. http://www.caribwx.com/latest.html fair winds to all...
