Satellite Internet, Grib Weather and more?
      11/05/2008 07:46

Hi I am looking for a solution to get weather info and also just voice call when onto deep blue waters. Talking only Satellite Phones now and no i am not intending to surf the net more then just downloading these new good GRIB weather files. I had just hoped for a a good hand held phone even if a fixed aerial must be considered.
The Iridium Satellite System - is it as said a complete coverage of the Earth - anyone using their phones and systems who can give me some info - i plan to cross the Atlantics next year, have only GSM and VHF communication on board and aim for AIS and more built in functions with a computer dry and safe with some usbs reachable at the chartboard, rugged screen, all givers possible connected to the computer eg GPS, AIS, log, wind, echo all log-processed.
is this realistic?
I am totally thankful for any tip!
