JANDY—
You're beginning to sound like an advertisement for the 802 marine products, which are overpriced junk IMHO. I'm also beginning to think you don't know what you're talking about, since Ubiqiti doesn't have a product called the Ubiqiti 5 AFAIK.
A Ubiqiti PicoStation 2HP has more power and a simpler installation than the Passport 802.Ultra. The configuration is a bit more complicated, but that isn't a big deal, given the additional flexibility the device provides. A POE device, like the PicoStation 2HP is a much better idea for a boat, since it can be hoisted further aloft without issue than can any USB based device. To get the USB based device further than 15' off the deck, you'd need an amplified USB cable, where a POE device is good for at least 50' in most cases.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
