GL: setting up an office on your boat

[fred]

John Stewart,

I did exactly that, this past summer.  Spent 4 months on the
boat, far from my business.  The main key was haviong a Verizon Broadband card
in my laptop.

In a few places, I was able to hook into nearby wi-fi
connections, but do remember this is NOT secure, and someone could be
recording everything I type.  So I did my banking transactions with the
Verizon card, and that IS secure.

I also had DirecTV which has a dish on a
tripod, and each evening at a new port, I would slightly adjust it.  Takles
about a minute or so.

Ladies & Gentlemen;

I'm not ready to go cold turkey into  retirement and
extended cursing. I have
a small space on my boat I would like to use to be
able to stay in contact
with my office. I will need phone support, note book,
fax and print  and an
antenna for starters.
If you have done this
successfully, would you please share with me what you
learned.
Thanks
