The Glomex weBBoat 4G Plus is a marine-rated outdoor dome that contains an integrated LTE dual-SIM cellular modem, long range Wi-Fi receiver, and a router.
Glomex claims that this setup allows for connectivity up to approximately 20 miles from the coast, as well as access to marina Wi-Fi when in port or anchored nearby.
The weBBoat 4G Plus employs automatic 4G/Wi-Fi switching, with Wi-Fi set as priority.
Glomex does note that in order to receive the signal from the weBBoat inside metal crafts, up to a maximum of four access points (according to your needs) must be placed inside a boat, which can then be connected to the weBBoat 4G via an Ethernet network cable.
