In this episode we evaluate the pros and cons of the Iridium GO communications system and Starlink with the DataHub from Predict Wind onboard our Leopard 45 sailing catamaran.
We've been using Iridium GO for all of our offshore passage weather and communications as well as tracking information on our website for the past three years.
This summer we purchased Starlink. We received the hardware in the summer and began using it immediately. It was amazing having wifi on our entire passage from Hampton, VA to the British Virgin Islands. Twelve days at sea and more than 500 miles offshore, we were downloading updated grib weather files every few hours, Jeff was streaming Yellowstone, and I was chatting with our kids and grandchildren, when I wasn't seasick. But that's another story.
Then PredictWind came out with DataHub. This smart device gathers GPS tracking, data, and communications from the boat and transmits that data via Starlink.
It's a game changer. Watch the video to find out more. And, as always, thanks for watching, don't forget to share and like the video, and please subscribe.
Safe sailing!
