Can you recommend a luxury liveaboard in the southern Red Sea where I can access my emails on the ship?

Thanks
Tov
 
I never heard there is, But you can access the net through cell(phone)GPRS. Just check with your provider and it's not that expensive.

But the question is would the network cover the entire route?
 
Hello Tov, the only reliable connection on a boat, sailing out of the range of the coastal network for mobile phones (like St. Johns reef), is the satellite phone. This communication is expensive. The transmission speed may be lower than usual. Not all the luxury class dive boats have this equipment.
Ciao
