Becuase Im permanently cruising and not likley to return home for some years, this is very important for all sorts of reasons from friends and fammily commuincations to more important weather safety and the different warning systems

We are a sailing family living on our boat. This rule change will affect us a lot, in a bad way!

I’m a Nomadic cruiser and a SpaceX/Starlink investor and really think making Starlink affordable and mobile for cruising boats is a huge safety thing.

The room plan has filled the perfect niche with allowing cruisers connectivity for safety, entertainment and contact with family and the rest of the world. The combination of global room when close to land and switching on the far more expensive mode when at Sea has struck a nice balance for global cruisers. The ladder being simply cost inhibitive. I would greatly urge you to consider either keeping the current plan or creating a hybrid plan that is priced at the target of cruisers.

It’s unfair practice to charge 5 times more than previously for the same service

The safety and connectivity of round the world sailors, cruisers, landlubbers and those vagabonds who just don't want to plant their feet in the ground somewhere!!

We want the freedom we have to travel on our boat as retirees. We can’t afford $1000/month. Please keep this open and affordable for us cruisers. We need this for safety and navigation! Thank you!

We bought this equipment for sailing. The cost of subscription at that time was 50$ than offshore was different but still responsible as we only do more that 10 mile away from land a handful of times per year. And the price went up and we payed because we need weather when sailing and when we come to anchorage. Now we would not be able to keep starlink even for weather forecast off shore. Making sailing more dangerous and once again for the ultra elite rather than the hard working sailor.

Stop penalizing the people who invested in this technology.

Starlink is awesome, this would ruin it

We support this because it would allow us to do local plan in Key West and local plan in St Pete, etc.

C'est important à mes yeux car aujourd'hui Starlink ns permet de rester connecté au milieu de n'importe quel océan et pour un tarif correct.

I have lived and worked on a boat a foreign country and an affordable Starlink plan is the only reason I could!

We live on a boat and starlink is critical to our safety. We dont have the option to transfer as much as required.

This new restriction won’t work for us sailors!

As a cruising sailor, we generally don't stay in one country for three months at a time, and this can be hazardous planning you cruising time via cyclone or hurricane seasons etc.

Such a brilliant service that helps us cruise the Caribbean islands a few months a year. Please come up with a plan to support us. Thank you Starlink.
