Just to amplify on what Steven has said. This unit rebroadcasts the Wi-Fi 
signal in the boat. So, you can sit anywhere on the boat with a normal Wi-Fi 
card and receive the signal I can't wait to hear if it works! $163.

|
| As a comparison, I tried this:

| http://www.netgate.com/product_info.php?products_id=328
|
| which consists of a small Senao EUB-362 200mw USB adapter, and an 8.5
| db Hyperlink antenna, plus a mount and assorted other goodies.  I am
| not using, nor would I use, the 20' of coax that is included, because
| a much better idea is to buy a male/male "RP-SMA gender changer" on
| ebay and hook the three foot pigtail on the antenna directly to the
| usb adapter (There is, at least on my boat, enough room to lead the
| pigtail through the roof to the adapter).
