The last few times I've been on a Sealink Ferry I've got their very own
base station.

Sealink?

I'm not aware of any of the cross-channel ferries offering their own
on-ship base stations, at least on the eastern crossings, e.g. Dover-
Calais/Dunkirk. My experience has been that you retain mobile
reception from one side or another for the whole cross-channel ferry
crossing.

I only ever used Norfolk Line / DFDS on the Dunkirk - Dover run ... and
seem to remember that on top one had French/UK mobile reception. Below
decks, this switched over to a local (to the boat) relay.
