*Current owner has not utilized the communications systems since purchase. Some initialization by the new owner would be expected. Systems last worked 2020.*
Guests need only to connect to the yachts internal Wi-Fi system with a simple password. There are multiple Cisco access points for seamless connectivity throughout the yacht. SEMPER FI has three methods of connecting to the internet:
1. WAVE Wi-Fi for shoreside connectivity to land based Wi-Fi systems
2. Cradlepoint near shore cell service via a Sim Card (USA, Bahamas, etc.)
3. KVH V-7 V-SAT satellite connectivity (Data download and upload plus voice) from anywhere else, even in the middle of the ocean.
The owner/Captain via an app simply selects which system to connect to and all on-board devices connected to the yacht’s Wi-Fi are all simultaneously using the chosen connection method.
* Also the Platinum Series Xantech stereo system will need recommissioning by the new owner. Current owner did not use.
