1. How can you do such a video and get the costs so wrong? You're so far off it's crazy.

2. Musk is definitely a very influential guy.

3. I watch and enjoy all of your videos. This is one that I found super enjoyable. Thanks Syman! 💕

4. I can only dream of owning a super yacht ….. but if i did, I would leave the internet behind 😊

5. Interesting. You talked about this coming in a video in the spring 2022 last year. Now it's reality. Thanks for the update.

6. No one person should control this system , especially considering musk is an angry emotionally disturbed child, and public pro nazi . I think his control over this company is an international security risk.

7. What powers and propels Star Link and how dose it stay aloft, my thinking is that if it really exists it is attached to high altitude weather balloons.

8. Distance to the Geosynchronous orbit is negligible as radio waves travel at the speed of light!

9. The biggest point you made during the video was the necessity for having the massive expenditures for such a poor product. Owners were actually being held over the barrel. You had to maintain an internet connection because thats how you communicate with ports. You may be thinking, The guy owns a yatch, what does he care about spending a day waiting for the proper documentation to come into port. Multiply that say by just twenty boats. Times the number aboard each vessel. And if its a relatively small port. You may spend three days or more waiting for clearance. And yatchs are run on a schedule although not as stringent as commercial boats they do have a pretty tight schedule. Having this capability is more than a game changer, it just invented a new one. Theres places owners would have to avoid if they had to maintain contact for any number of reasons. Now they have a connection anywhee on earth. So the places traveled to are now endless.

10. Never understood why yachts didn't use Aircraft Fly-Fi or Ka-Band, Ku-Band etc…I guess StarLink is a better solution. Thanks for the update and interesting video.

11. Please stop omitting the T from sTupidyachts.
    They are unseaworthy refuges from the law mostly used for stupification and entrapment of political figures of influence.
    And there is no advantage to starlink. It cannot even give reliable bandwidth previously available.
    It's scamware

12. It’s always a game changer , and then you never hear about it again.

13. Wikipedia says 4423 Starlink sattelites are operational as of 7 November 2023 and they had launched over 5500 of them. That's crazy. They were telling people they made 6 sats a day in 2020. It really is fast work how it's all come together.

14. I continue to wonder why the upload speed is throttled. Here in the Philippines I have fiber to the house and get up to 300 Mbps up and 300 Mbps down. How do they get away with this?

15. What an interesting video!

16. I'm at 501 down and 504 up and I wouldn't want it any slower.

17. Kymeta corporation has had satellite internet available for yachts for over 5 years, extremely affordable (both install and monthly) starting at 20Mbs to over 100Mbs. This is well known within the industry and I'm honestly shocked you are unaware of them.

18. doesn't this essentially make Starlink a monopoly in the marine internet provider industry? i doubt any other provider will be able to provide such a product, without launching thousands of satellites of their own…
    so today it may cost 5k per month… in a year it may cost 50k per month (still JUUST under what traditional systems do) while providing 100x more Mbps, and 10x faster ping…

19. My inlaws were just in antartica and their small cruise ship had starlink. We were doing facetime with no issues, and my father in law was able to use a vpn and watch his football game with pretty good quality on his laptop. Kind of crazy to think of that capability in virtually the remotest part of the planet.

20. "But wait…. There's more!" It's certainly nice to see you're still excited about the constant changes in the yachting industry. Many people spend their lives never finding their dream job, and just slog it out until retirement. At least you provide some beautiful videos and information until they do. 🙌

21. We often forget the dates all these changes happen. I can tell you for sailboats. In December 2022 I agreed to crew a yacht sailing out of Vietnam the next spring. At that time I had Starlink on my boat back in California but Starlink was selling a $2000/month plan, so if you went faster than 8 mph Starlink would stop working. So we all had the RV plan. I told the boat owners I'd like to bring by Starlink to try out. They said, maybe in the future, but not this trip. In February sailing YouTubers seemed to be trying out Starlink. My friends still said, yeah nah. End of March I arrived in Vietnam with my Starlink. Videos were popping up on YouTube raving about how well it was working. End of the month we were still waiting to cast off from Nha Trang…. Vietnam said you can't bring any radio into the country, so I figured Starlink was out of the question… but we plugged it in. Worked brilliantly. Used it all the way across the Pacific. I think it was February/ March 2023 when it started to be widely used mid ocean. It's a brilliant system that was part of my decision to go sailing, but I thought it wouldn't be available for a few more years. One of the first things we did with it was another crew did a live video call to his family back in Oregon (who live in the country so they were also using Starlink.)
    Latency is almost unnoticeable. I would suggest if you're agreeing to a second date to warn the other person in advance that you're using Starlink and there's some latency. Otherwise an overly sensitive person might think you're hesitant. But that's it. Phone calls in the middle of the North Pacific to anywhere else.
    And maybe the big yachts will have the $2000 dishes, everyone I've ever met just uses the $600-700 Dishy – no problem.
    And instead of hour long downloads of barebones GRB files for weather, we had full Predict Wind and regular chart updates. Terrific utility.

22. Super tax the super rich!

23. Very interesting and enlightening article on super yacht internet 🛜👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

24. Starling seems like a great advance of technology. Having Elon Musk in control of the technology strikes me as being, at least, very scary.

25. I watch a Youtube channel of a lovely couple who RV full-time, including to very remote places in Alaska. They rave about having Starlink on their RV.

26. commenting from antarctica on a ship thanks to starlink

27. Fabulous detail … Stay Safe & Keep Reporting!! ☘

28. Electronic systems manager. For those of you that didn’t get it.

29. HDPE superyacht hulls? Anyone? Cant wait to watch Starsky and Hutch on a slippery new superyacht made of plastic. Come to think of it television isn't worth a $700,000 opportunity.

30. I probably would sit on the yacht and watch videos about super yachts^^

31. As an ex Network engineer and now Cyber Security person, I would be in contact with your home ISP. Fiber should generally be in 1-20ms pending your ISP isn't over saturated. I have a 1GbE connection and my latency is 1ms. Starlink is absolutely game changing, have a lot of friends who live in remote areas who are now connected online.

32. So many yachts losing their balls.

33. Doesn’t work in Dubai

34. I wouldn't give that bastard Musk, one cent. I would like to see every company he owns go the way of Twitter, or X, or whatever the stupid POS is called now.

35. Am a bit amazed that super yachts are only discovering this now. As I am writing this we are in an anchorage off the coast of an island in Greece and we have internet via Starlink. We have it now for over 1 year on board and would not want to do without it. Normally we have around 300 Mbps download and around 25 – 30 Mbps upload, more than enough for us.
    Have to admit we don't do Atlantic crossings, but the majority of the mega and super yachts we see in the Med spend most of the time along the coast, in a quiet anchorage and most of the time there is no cell phone connection, so another source of internet is required. Starlink is the way to go in this case.

36. Another channel I watched just removed their vsat system and only use starlink now. Looks a little odd without the 2 dishes up there

37. Interesting thoughts.

38. It's amazing how many boats, planes, ports and airports don't have a simple CB radio

39. We need to remember that as good as Starlink obviously is, it is FLOODING low earth orbit with satellites and that is increasingly risky. Mr Musk doesn't seem to much care about that but when satellites (anyone's) start colliding, which they will, things get nasty for the world very quickly. Google Kessler Syndrome. It's very real.

40. LAN AI lanai

41. a busy yacht will easily blow through 5TB in a couple weeks! what should they do then? how much does starlink charge for overages??

42. When not moving, for winter etc, I put it on 40 a month

43. Great stuff…

44. 😂Gaming online in the yacht video have?😄😄😄possible?

45. Biggest revolution to me anyways remains the natural gas powered turbine because the electrical draw to power not just these ships…and these are ships…is so enormous to include all that be fitted out such as presented here…incredible the power demands. I don't personally use nor have tested nor validated Starlink but it would seem to have what i think in the business is known as "high latency" meaning "takes time to download" as opposed to Verizon FIOS which has effectively zero or very low latency "instant download" of say a Movie or other data intensive "media." Where having any latency period matters in navigation is a huge deal though as knowing what the weather, the tides, waves/sea state plus communication ship to shore…a lot like running an Airport trying to dock these massive vessels let alone making sure all good to go before getting "underway." Long Garmin strong buy. Easy double from here as Ye Olde Ten Bagger is back.
