Starlink is the game changer which allowed me to set sails a year ago.
Safety at sea with afordable internet connection, was the key element for that.

I use it while sailing between counties not for fun, but to obtain weather files, emails and well being check ins.

The reason you buy the Marin application is to be able to travel without any problems with connectivity. Using the country as a way of controlling the freedom of movement is wrong. It should be regions and with an easy way of transferring between the regions due to cost,regulation differences .

I'm a yacht delivery skipper so obviously sailing all over the world. I purchased my mini in Mozambique a few years ago and constantly need to have the unit sent by courier back to Mozambique to start the reset........ pathetic! I'll continue using my iridium go thank you 👍

It's important to me because it would be useful to most sailors. For me in particular, I do not use that much data and cannot localized in French Polynesia anyway, so this petition does serve my interests directly but I know that it would assist many people.
I love Starlink and wil defend Elon and co to the end for working tirelessly for our luxury.
I do not think starlink is a requirement for travel, but a beautiful luxury, and I think people can and should pay for it or go without.

We use roam for buisness purposes and school. Switching to a priority plan makes it cost prohibative to be able to continue with the life we built around your services. To us this is a global product without boarders and that should be the way it stays.

We are a sailing family, circumnavigating. Our kids thrive in this learning environment, with first-hand cultural experiences, living history, marine biology, and language immersion. But, we rely heavily on Starlink to support their education as we travel and have already made financial commitments for online education for this school year, based on the assumption we’d have Starlink. We cannot afford a significant cost increase for Starlink, so this policy change could mean our trip is over.

Starlink provides internet at sea which is important for our safety. I would appreciate that the service can be continued without extreme cost increases.

The international sailing community coordinated a record 65 vessels in humanitarian response to hurricane beryl, this was the founding mission that led to Boats Without Borders, for which starlink is the technological pillar that allows our lifesaving operations across horizons.
The sailing community has been connected, empowered, and enabled by the solutions starlink has delivered. But the new changes threaten the welfare, financial security, and humanitarian ability of this demographic.

I understand Starlink requiring you register in the country you are in. Their policy needs to allow us to do that.
