Sailing around the world or al leadt sround the caribics will be much more easier without 90days limit. However, we are no business and the business tarifs are too high for us.

This will make Starlink far less useful for the many that spend sevetslonyhs in the Bahamas in the winter. This this the whole reason many of us got Starlink in the first place.

We cruise from the US to the Bahamas and stay in the Bahamas from 2 to 5 months at a time. Crossing over from the US to the Bahamas is not safe without internet connection. We have twice needed help when crossing when the boat was incapacitated- one time to get a tow to shore, one time to use AI to diagnose and fix the problem. This is a serious safety concern. What if had been a health issue? The cost of the higher plan is too much on an ongoing basis and the 30 day rule is unmanageable.

Starlink has saved lives out on the ocean and it’s certainly put my nerves a little at ease being able to connect with other sailors when things get tough, Let’s keep it that way by keeping it affordable for all cruisers or removing the 90 day rule. Cheers 🤍

We live on our boat in the Caribbean and are constantly on the move from small country to the next one in order to stay within visa requirements. Starlink has allowed us to stay in touch with family and to check weather and world events. If the price goes up much more than what we have been paying we will have to cancel service as we rarely stay in any one country more than a month.

I'm currently sailing around the world and I don't have the money to pay any more.

Starlink was a game changer for my sailing adventure. If this new plan goes thru I will be forced to sell my dish

We depend on our Starlink for safety and comfort on our sailboat.

As a sailor, I want Starlink to work allover the world at reasonable prices.

Why would Starlink want to alienate its paying customers for a few bucks? Dumb.

Yes, this is super important to get removed for long-term users, like me as a sailor around the world. Please change the policy

My home is the world, roots matter, but the tree grows toward the sky that covers everyone. Why limit yourself to one patch of dirt when the entire garden is yours?

As the prime way to be connected for a cruiser, starlink’s recent limitations on a roaming period will seriously limit our way to stay connected and limit our safety while on passage

Das wäre ein großer Sicherheitsverlust für uns als live aboard segler.

We live on our sailboat and are not bound by borders, we can freely travel around the world. Even though Starlink is a great tool for us, it is sad that these rules hit us that hard.

We plan to begin an Atlantic circuit in December this year, with the voyage continuing until September 2027. Starlink is an important part of our safety and security strategy. The new rules make it impossible for us to rely on Starlink for this purpose. This is a very unexpected and disappointing development.

Starlink has been a great improvement in sailing life and one big reason we decided we could start cruising long distances. Please do not change the rule (after also increasing the pricing) for country. Thank you!

This new change does not work for the international yachting community, which has come to rely on Starlink for weather routing, safety, and communication.
