A couple of days ago Verizon added a new unlimited data plan, and repriced all of their other data plans. It's
very attractively priced.
If you're cruising in the US, spending lots of time at
anchor or at
marinas with crappy
wifi, it's huge. No more minding your data usage, go ahead and binge on Netflix all you want, etc.
There is some talk of them throttling your bandwidth if you go north of 50 gb, or if they detect you tethering a lot, but with the latter a VPN solves that. I use one for some
work and it's easy enough to flick it on when I'm tethered.
Even if you don't want/need unlimited, go check out their new plan levels and pricing. You might want to change what you have.
Also, their international plan, which covered 100 countries, has changed (from what I knew) and is much more reasonably priced than in the past.
