What were the sea conditions?? We found that acquisition was time consuming or even impossible with rough seas, though once acquired, we never lost the connection.

My guest, for the gen 2 at least, the startup phase where the dish is rapidly looking around for satellite, doesn't like the least bit on instability.? But once it has an internal satellite map, it knows exactly where to look.? [The Starlink secret sauce is that rather than moving antenna, it electronically steers a number of transmitting elements.]

We lost it crossing from Nova Scotia to Mount Desert Island Maine. ?We expect to lose service when we cross over to the Bahamas. ?Interesting that you had service 49 nm from shore. I’m not sure how Starlink computes the offshore distance. Then again they are forever changing plans and coverages.

Dave when we went to Haida Gwai we had service for about 49 miles offshore. ?That particular crossing that we chose was the shortest, 86 nm. ?Service came back on about 5 miles from the island

I also need starlink to work from the boat in the San Juans and Gulf Islands this summer.? Of those of you who use Starlink do you use the standard or the mini? Thanks,
