    I’m thinking about installing one in my boat, but I’m in doubt about how the gen 2 actuators work. Does your antenna kept realigning as the boat moves, even at anchor? I’m abroad and here they still sell the gen 2 antenna. The less power hungry gen 2 is a plus, but I don’t know if this is the best option (due to the presence of the motors) or if it’s better to wait for the gen 3 antenna. Disabling the motors would not be the ideal solution for me as I intend to also use the antenna at my house.

    why make the cut like that? why not go to the BI Buoy as marked and head straight in, wouldn't that be the "safest" approach according to charts?

    • @frankmay8351
      @frankmay8351 Год назад

      I was thinking the same thing. There is another video of another Captain who states to start your navigation into the inlet from the BI Bouy. This would avoid having to navigate northward if you were coming from the south. However, I believe there can be very large breakers in that outer channel therefore I suppose it would be safer to go up north like this Captain is saying, then head south to Red Bouy #6.

    Having sailed Barnegat Inlet for close to 40 years, I must say that your comments such as "ignore the markers" etc. are really beyond reason. Incidentally the north "wall" as you describe it is also known as a breakwater. This should be the first clue that your info is a lot less than helpful. Study upo, take your time, and maybe in the future you can provide helpful and SAFE info.

    • @jerseymike119
      @jerseymike119 2 года назад

      Thanks for the kind words. Over your 40 years of sailing I do believe the inlet has been dredged and shoaled over in all sorts of ways. When I made this video at the time I am telling the current conditions of entering and exiting the inlet. My words are to be used as a guideline. I say wall.. you say breakwater guess . We are both wrong cause its really the "North Jetty " same shit you hit it you sink. lol I say markers. you say buoy. same thing its a object in the water that is a navigation mark. A buoy "Marks the channel" therefore its a marker. And I have got many messages thanking me for giving safe passage to boaters who were scared to enter the inlet. It was helpful and they made it in and out safe.

    @RedwonMactamhais 2 года назад

    Have you tried it underway at all? I have seen the base hard mounted, and being used on RV's and on cars out on the Highway doing 90+mph, and on other boats in rocky stormy conditions. I know there are still a lot of holes in their service they are working on filling with each batch of microsatellites they send up. So you might hit areas on crossings where you would lose connection, but the only issues I have seen with people using it in motion are quick disconnects, in the millisecond range which affect things like online gaming where split second reaction times matter. A few other sailers have videos saying they do have very high power consumptions in rocky stormy conditions. But they are still able to use their streaming services at the highest resolution, and use their phones on wifi connection without any noticible issues. I'd love to see you hard mount the dish outside, then do some sailing and motoring and see if you can stay connected in and around your home area, and report back in your follow-up review. Some people have also said in comments on other videos they are planning on getting a multi axis gimbal systems to mount the dish to on their boats to hopefully further cut down on how much the fish motor has to run and cut their power consumption. But as of yet I haven't seen anyone put a specific brand and model they have tried and had success with.

    • @SailingMTPockets
      @SailingMTPockets 2 года назад

      We haven’t tried it underway yet but will be testing soon. So far we haven’t experienced any outages during heavy rain storms, the dish doesn’t seem to move a whole lot, we haven’t disabled the motor. When running on the inverter it’s only drawing between 5-10 Amps which isn’t terrible depending on conditions. Stay tuned for our next follow up video, Thank you for watching!

      Our mast height is 64 ft, we didn’t have any issues until South Carolina, wound up timing the fixed bridges with low tide, we didn’t have any issues. Will you be spending the fall in FL or heading back up north? Make sure you provision well for North Carolina and subscribe to AquaMaps. You can overlay bob’s tracks and that will show you the depth from USCG surveys. If you plan on staying at marinas, a 50 amp to 2 30 amp adapter is a must. Also, 2 17” fender balls, many marinas are side ties. I’ll let you know if I think of anything else and feel free to ask away if there’s something your unsure of. Fair Winds 😉⛵️
