Ordered Go Pro Cam'
going to see how it does on the boat. Have seen great vids and seems to be just the ticket.

but After a break-in and the guns stolen, I seem to have the wind taken from my sails on my "Reckless Behavior Tour 2011." I am still going but I am torn between replacing what I have lost and getting the boat parts I need to pursue this adventure as safely as possible. I am mentally unable to get re focused on the tour. This was a huge mental smack-down of emotions. Anyone who has been robbed can understand and anyone who hasn't felt the violation of their .... I can't describe the feeling but it's not good. So I sit here and find myself paralyzed as to what to do next. Finding the enthusiasm I had for this trip is a struggle.

The Go pro works great, I have a couple of go pro vids on youtube at buxtonbb
I do recommend using a good and long tether strap on the base of the camera if you plan to use the suction cup to hold it in place, I lost 2 cameras in Lake Erie after berrying the hull in waves, I couldn't get to the front of the hull to retrieve the camera before the tether broke. There is someone on e-bay selling go pro life jackets for $10.00 each.

Yes using a cable strap on the cam , to damn expensive to loose one. The vids are so clear and very high quality. Great vids.
