We spent a month living aboard at Beacon Marina in Ipswich. Here's our honest 2026 review, including costs, facilities, liveaboard life, transport links and whether we'd stay again.

We bought a 44ft bluewater cruiser for a round-the-world adventure. Then we discovered marina waiting lists, expensive berths, deep draft limitations and the reality of learning to sail. Here's what happened.

Real-world comparison of Starlink vs 5G for boat life in the UK, covering cost, speed, reliability, coverage, and power use to help liveaboards choose the best internet setup.

Can you really work remotely from a sailboat? We researched 5G, antennas, and signal boosters, but ultimately landed on the Starlink Mini. Here is the truth about speeds, real-world power draw (it's better than you think!), and if it's worth the £96/month.
