CELLULAR COMMUNICATION & WIFI

Welcome to our blog!
We have transitioned to full-time (except when it's cold) liveaboard cruising with the goal to sail around the world starting in the Mediterranean.
We created this blog and our podcast, Covert Castaway, to share lessons learned and document our journey as we make this major life change.
