Conversation with the Helmsman, a v ideo clip upload via the "Skipper 150" Inmarsat terminal

I am attempting now to upload an 11.1 MB 720p high resolution video clip, a short 3-4 sentence exchange with my Helsman Werner Hofer. This is a big file. No concerns if you are on land and have cable modem service etc. but quite another, when you are out at sea, where such services have been very limited, or very costly (upwards of $15,000) until now. This is sort of a test to find out how long the upload will take via the "Skipper 150" Inmarsat FleetBroadband terminal, which I am beta testing. If you will be reading this post, then the video clip upload was a success. It looks like the upload went well. Between uploading and processing, it took 18 minutes.
