How Starlink is Transforming Satellite TV on Superyachts | Yacht Report Podcast

[@rickkearn7100]

Interestingly, I have found eSysman channel to be my best source of Starlink info and its progress! Well done old chap. Cheers.

[@steveshoemaker6347]

Starlink is a wonderful deal.....Thanks my friend...... Shoe🇺🇸

[@tomhendricksen1805]

We dropped satellite TV a year ago and stream everything. The only problem is local channels, but an antenna fixes that if we want.

[@calumshaw]

Great info; thanks eSysman. And a very happy, festive, safe new year to you and your crew!!

[@cestusfr]

Happy New Year to you and your loved ones. Thank you for the amazing job you do! We ALL appreciate it.

[@johngibson3837]

Hey up mate thanks for an interesting video nice to hear you talking about your side of the industry, all the best for the new year lad

[@jimmyquinn9639]

Interesting video 🛥🚤⛵️👍👍👍👏👏👏⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@GaryCSchade]

Nicely done 🎉

[@jato62]

Love the studio

[@goodguygto]

Hey eSysman SuperYachts!, I hope you had a great Christmas? and best wishes for the New Year!🎉🎉🎉

[@GregoryStrauss-tk7pe]

Happy New Year, All the best for 24...

[@applejacks971]

Technology is crazy these days! Its too complex and overwhelming for me to even try keeping up with. Where things will be 10 years from now will be insane! Great video and Happy New Year :)

[@davidb9059]

Thanks great channel this.

[@FLGurl]

This is outstanding information. Thank you. As someone who is HYPER-sensitive to the wifi, and data floating around in the air, this is a big thumbsdown. If I owned a yacht, and it were crewed, for safety the bridge would have their connection, and the crew would also have their connection. That is it. There would be no TV's in the public areas of the yacht. The sensitivity that I have is so intense it is almost debilitating. I need substantial amounts of noise just to drown it out. Think of being in the engine room with no headphones on, and that would be terrific for me. Sleep is almost non-existent because I happen to live in a building surrounded with people addicted to wifi and their hands are glued to their cell phones. I greatly appreciate knowing all of this more than I can say. Thank you again. 🤗

Try researching Faraday cages, sounds like you need to sleep in one.

[@FLGurl]

@@drakinfpv9629 Thank you, but that doesn't work for me either.

[@drakinfpv9629]

@@FLGurl if sleeping in a Faraday cage doesn't help then the issue isn't related to radio waves/wifi. If you are using noise to drown it out it's more likely tinnitus.

[@FLGurl]

@@drakinfpv9629 My head is like a modem. I can hear the high pitch noise and it changes depending on where I am at. Always can tell when there is wifi around.

[@thegreenengineer7994]

interesting to see that video curently in international waters, via Starlink internet :)

[@benjaminblakemore9704]

Full Fibre optic streaming in the beautiful N.Z. baby!!!!😂😂❤❤

[@MikeH-sg2ue]

Have a save, happy, & healthy new year! Sail carefully folks!

[@paulkelly4731]

I've got Starlink on my 20 meter... it's great, internet for streaming is the way to go, plus if you have a Samsung TV with Samsung TV Plus, you'll get 300 channels and movies FREE. In the US, add an HDTV over the air antenna for local channels. I dropped Direct TV, and my KVH is gathering dust... plus with WiFi enabled TV, every Stateroom can do their own thing.

[@alexmaryondavis]

I actually quite like the look of the domes, and some yachts might look a bit odd without them.

[@thomasw5430]

Happy New Year! The only issue with it is when there is a large concentration of users in the same area- the speed drops, and at times you can’t connect. I’d love to be able to do a survey of all the yacht owners currently in St Barts, and see what service is like there right now with the huge concentration of yachts.

[@jim242]

Was a Captain in the 80’s we had a library of VHS tapes and music cassettes when we docked in a Harbor we knew a lot of people on different yachts and would just trade off between us also had rolls and rolls of charts would slide them under a plexiglass table top and use a grease pencil to chart our course loran wasn’t very reliable and sat Nav would only give you an update every 6 or more hours so it was dead reckoning most of the time kept you on your toes even learned to use a sextant from a Captain I did a lot of miles with as I was coming up in the business

[@jaxdragon1723]

HAPPY New Year !!!

[@daviddellit8344]

Interesting. Thanks.

[@gregbluefinstudios4658]

In US: half and half, half use traditional Cable (Copper or Fiber) and half use some sort of Dish/Wireless solution. Stream via Dish (couple main choices of dish) and stream via Wireless from Phone, etc. to Apple TV, Roku, or some other box.

[@justfabcreate1781]

Here in America, most of the apps come preinstalled on phones and TVs. If they’re not preinstalled, we can download them. Most people have services like Google fiber, which is extremely fast with little to no lag. I’m not sure about other Internet providers simply because I’ve had Google fiber for over 11 years now. It would be nice to see if this video goes over different Internet providers for yachts.

[@nbrettoner]

Really interesting video. It's so good to learn of these systems etc from such a naturally renerous experienced person as your good self. And you tell it so well. Thankyou, trusting you had a great Christmas, and a very Happy New 2024. :) 🙃🤠💖

[@teeanahera8949]

What’s “renorous”?

Oops sorry. Fumble fingers missed the "g' key and somehow got the "r' one. Blush. @@teeanahera8949

[@k53847]

How often do you run into a starlink sat without the sat-sat connection needed out at sea?

[@luxmaster]

the large 3.4m are old technology and it is amazing we still see them on boats, it does seem outdated.

[@00BillyTorontoBill]

I had starlink on board for the Global Solo challenge race . It was a game changer. video calls at will ...50Gb / month for ~300GBP. Overage was 1.50GBP per gb. Only problem was reception in extreme south pacific. Why? because they apparently put satellites in a power saving mode as they traverse Antarctica. Couple of sailboats arent enough to warrant changing the op plan. I streamed all of Narcos 1,2,3 and then Narcos mexico, plus 2 terabyte drive filled with movies. Talked to my Fiance everyday. For the race we needed to have a back up.. but I didnt get it going as the cost for Certus was a lot.

[@peterbonnez]

Interesting

[@RJDA.Dakota]

Even the cable and satellite companies have moved away from the idea of the “cable”. Now no longer wired, they now use internet service for that.

[@emberspirit7502]

I read information on the internet, the icon of the seas is worth 1 billion dollars, its size is very huge. But there are private yachts worth 600 to 800 million dollars and it is much smaller than icon of the seas. Why is the value of personal yachts so expensive? Is it a problem that most of the cost has to be paid to the designer?.thanks for replying.

[@mrahob275]

[@Starpopper800]

Cost comparison would have been helpful!

[@ding020468]

He has done cost comparison in a previous video. You should be able to find it with a search of this channel. Short answer is that Starlink is MUCH less expensive than the other satellite systems.

[@zx1100a1]

👍

[@lutomson3496]

what is going to happen with ships like it has done with RV's here in the US is congestion ships in port all want data, and the more users in one place the less quality, in addition Starlink rates have doubled once they suck you into their model when the KVH system still works well for internet and TV..and KVH systems are world wide like starlink I have one and a starlink

[@SuperMoeLarryCurly]

Even at home I've dropped all cable/dish.. and just stream whatever I'm watching.

[@1vegasdood]

Holy skimoli...I cannot imagine having to swap out all those boxes multiple times a year based on your location...which as you point out...a SY is not necessarily intended to be at a permanent location.

[@waynekoepke8128]

if i owned a yacht like that the last thing i would is watching TV

[@stephankleen556]

There is not always sunny weather, where you are with your yacht.

[@macbook802]

No one watches cable tv in the US, lol. My grandma used to ten years ago

[@festerofest4374]

Tons (many millions) still do.

[@itsruf1]

I GAVE away my bigscreen in 2010. I told DTV to pound sand. (I have 1/2 a life). All I watch is Y.T. and that gets Tour De France. NBC will dissolve soon. Edit: at my business i use (3) 27" monitors/PC. At home office (2) 27" monitors.I don't pay for any service.

[@JesseTorres305]

I just realized I don’t have Billionaires problems

[@Chip_in]

I just stream everything for free ⛳

[@BillHrpr]

Starlink & IPTV, jobs a good un 😉

[@ole9421]

And all this time I thought those big domes were filled with surface/weather radar and communications equipment. You know, modern equipment that was essential to sailing the world's oceans as safely as possible. Well, at least I can sleep comfortably tonight knowing those rich ****s can now watch their precious ESPN from any where in the world.

[@YachtReport]

The vessels do have radar but for navigation. You can also pick up weather fronts on the radar, but ships get weather reports from weather stations with much better equipment than a ship carries.

[@teeanahera8949]

Btw diameter and ‘across’ mean the same thing.

[@YachtReport]

I know, that’s why I said it.

[@jaxdragon1723]

where is the Fog horn? I love the horn at the start of your video's.

[@lynetteray2146]

No. We stream now. No satellite dish or cable.

[@tonyjones678]

I'm guessing in a couple of years it'll be easy to spot Russian yachts. They'll be the only ones with dirty great Xmas trees baubles on them.

[@TheOhanaBennett]

Sorry, I’m not laughing at you, I’m laughing at this being exactly the same conversation I’ve had with owners and charter clients for over 30 years! We understand it and it makes perfect sense to us. But there’s no way to explain this to a land-dweller without it sounding like a bitcoin scam. Seriously, coming into a potential Caribbean anchorage there’s this tiny voice asking ‘but which way is Manaus?’ 🤙🏾😎

[@kevinmobile]

Amused to hear eSysman that "traditionally" tv viewers in the UK watched via a SKY dish. You youngsters eh? Also, bear in mind that while we have about 6000 large items in space (half are active) at the moment, Starlink needs 42,000 to be complete with currently a 3% failure rate to add to that number. However Starlink is on record as saying that these low-earth orbiting (LEO) satellites will have an expected shelf-life of ONLY 5 years. The necessary regular and complete replacement will produce enough junk to risk a 'Kessler' (from the NASA scientist prediction in 1978) syndrome. This suggested that a collision between two objects would risk a cascading effect and the destruction into smaller pieces of ultimately every object in LEO. This would jeopardise ISS, GPS, Hubble and communication satellites and prevent any other satellite being launched. A worry.
