Most govt boats have it, and boats with client on board (construction, stim boats etc) that’s about it.

That is some serious bullshit not having wifi on every boat. Especially now with Starlink being available.

Every company has their ‘thing’ they are resistent towards. Seems like internet is ECOs.

Nothing will change till it has to. I see raises coming long before fleet wide internet.

I’ve heard second hand that there are times on the gov’t boats that the internet gets turned off cause ya’ll have to go dark, right?

:man_shrugging:t3: If so, that would depend on the specific boat and contract probably.

Internet is off most of the time on gov boats. Which sucks because they want to treat us like we’re on a ts boat when it’s just a secret.

Mistah Gary bringing back da company sto’

Does anybody know what the Starlink packages cost the vessel owners? We have it provided free to the crews but it is 1,000 gb/day, it doesn’t carry over so use it or lose it. We also use it for the ships comms. What are the packages per vessel if anyone has the data?
