I just had a crazy idea.

Why don't you set a Tor or I2P hidden service for the service running on your
boat?

You can set an i2p node in your Raspberry, and it will work even if the mobile
connection the raspberry uses is behind Carrier Grade NAT or whatever have you.

Your i2p node can get an i2p address assigned. Then you can access it using an
i2p client from anywhere in the world.

Advantage: easy to deploy.
Disadvantage: You need to install i2p in any machine you want to access the
raspberry from.
Disadvantage 2: It has a bandwidth overhead, so it may damage your bills if
they charge you for data volumes.
Disadvantage 3: Lag is going to be bad, specially is your mobile signal is bad
quality. If the mobile signal is reeeeally bad then this approach becomes
unusable in practice.
