UNLIMITED INTERNET ON A BOAT - How we work and play while living off grid on a catamaran. (S1E3)

3,091 Görünümler· 04/03/20

A little late, but we got it posted! Not as much progress as we would have liked to make this week, so we covered a few other things. John discusses the process he uses to patch the plywood hulls, such as the grinding strategies and how to match a curve in the hull. He also shows the biggest patch we’ve done yet, and we so hope it works! This week we also got a tip from the neighbor about a sander from FESTOOL. He had an extra one that he let us borrow and try out, and it is working so well that we went ahead and ordered our own . . . more to follow on that, but we just might be done with stripping chemicals altogether! Because we are trying to move onto the boat as soon as possible, we needed to figure out how to do internet effectively while living aboard. In this episode, John covers how we put ulimited 4g internet on our catamaran, and shows it in action! Internet Talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csvwRV0zdJ4&t=15m43s  Apparently it is pretty difficult to replace your home internet with 4G data, so we will cover a few ways to extend your plan as well. We pay $80/mo currently with Impact Wireless and get a plan with true unlimited data (and hotspot data, which isn’t required). This measns no speed throttling after x Gb, we’ve used more than 100Gb this month and are still consistently getting over 5Mb/s throughout the day . . . and that is with deprioritized data (after 50Gb for us)! What do we use for our equipment?
