Just to add a little more flavoring to the mix; these houseboats are all
equipped with cable TV, but I don't exactly know how it works. It may be
that the facility has a sat dish and some kind of distribution system that
it distributes the satellite signal to all of the houseboats.

Typical marina systems are coax to all slips from a central distribution
amp, usually hooked up to cable or DBS.

Does it seem possible that the internet connectivity and the cable/sat TV
signal could be distributed over the same cable?

Yes. See
