In the print edition of the publication, Editor Mark Pillsbury says: "The other key piece to the data upload and download puzzle came from Global Marine Networks, a company that provides soup-to-nuts satellite-communications products. Its [XGate software](http://www.globalmarinenet.com/xgate.php) let me find and download [GRIB files](http://www.globalmarinenet.com/grib_downloads.php), and I could send and receive emails. Better yet, the [blogging module](http://www.globalmarinenet.com/xgate_sb.php) made filling daily reports a breeze, including highly compressed photos sent via sat phone. The company's products, coupled with very patient customer-service and help desk assistance, were invaluable when it came to keeping in touch with friends, family, work, and readers for the 16 days away. I'm sure ?you could piece together all the various bits, but having tried in vain to do so on my own for several nights, I'd say don't bother to reinvent that particular wheel - GMN has done the work for you."[![Satellite phone email, web, GRIB files and blogging](https://blog.pulsarbeyond.com/hs-fs/file-2646066896-png/images/cruising-world.png?width=500&height=704&name=cruising-world.png "Cruising World Satellite Email and GRIB file recommendation")](https://blog.pulsarbeyond.com/hs-fs/file-2646066896-png/images/cruising-world.png) ![](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/content/email-template-images/placeholder_200x200.png) ### Subscribe Email ### Popular Stories [Pivotel International is now Pulsar](https://blog.pulsarbeyond.com/pivotel-is-now-pulsar) May 09, 2024 [Global Marine Networks (GMN) is now Pivotel.com.
