I'm thinking that some of you will be thinking (rightfully so) that we should leave the technology at home and enjoy our vacations... and we will, it's nice to check in every few days though especially as two of our couples have kids they are leaving behind...
I did some reading on Cellphone service and it's fairly inexpensive to get a Lime or Digicel SIM for a GSM phone and use that for cellular if that is needed. We have a big group and it's nice to use that as a safety net if needed -- and so I have a Digicel SIM now. In past trips we brought a sat phone for "just in case", but I think we will skip that this trip.
I'm trying to decide what to do about the data side of things. We are techno-nuts to begin with, so if there is a wifi signal even close to us, we can figure a way to use it.
What forms of data service have some of the rest of you used? Cellular data or boat-wifi or have you found that open wifi is available?
Thanks for your input
Rich
