⚓ The Problem With Traditional Boat WiFi
Most boaters struggle with connectivity because:
❌ Marina WiFi is overloaded
Too many boats, too little bandwidth — especially on weekends.
❌ Phone hotspots drop inside cabins
Signal disappears the moment you step below deck.
❌ Satellite is expensive
Great for crossing oceans — not practical for everyday coastal use.
Star WiFi solves all three with a simple, powerful 4G/5G setup designed for coastal boating.
