On board
Before we went out I had bought 35G bytes of internet data access via the GSM network (mobile phone to you). I was very impressed with the mobile coverage considering we were out at sea and passing some very sparsely inhabited country.
Only once in the entire voyage did I notice a loss of GSM availability and that for about fifteen minutes only. Interestingly the on-board internet failed at the same time suggesting that the ship's internet is provided via GSM - I had assumed it came via satellite.
Builders' drawing of Trollfjord dated 2002. Note a transmission shaft running astern - perhaps the idea of generating electricity and using that to drive the propellers came later.
