Last week was my first experience with one. It didn't go well, to say the least. I can't remember a piece of technology so awkward to use in at least the last 10 years. It was returned today, and I'll be staying away until they become more user friendly.

That was my same thought until they made the app for my Iphone. Super easy to run and preview what you are trying to shoot.

I have bought or made all of my mounts. I have a couple of tripods so that one was easy. I also made some mounts out of Plexiglas that use the suction cup that will work slick in my Otter.

I would buy Wasabi batteries for extras. They are made better and last longer. Do a search and they will be easy to find.

For those that just want a fun easy cam to use. I picked up a Emerson HD 720p Action Camcorder at Big Lots for around $39 bucks. I know it's no where in the same range as the Gopro but it's a good one to start with to see if you like them. I used mine Turkey hunting and was pretty happy with the footage that came out of it! it's a good starter cam to play with if you don't want to putout $400 or more bills! wink

      My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.

      As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…

      I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...

      Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?

      I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.

      You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.

      Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
