I was surprised to see my year old thread pop up again. I figure I could use this as a 1 year update: Keelguard: The installation of the keelguard was quite easy and it remains attached perfectly. I sealed the edges with 4200, which others on the HullTruth recommended. I am not sure if this was...

Redbaronace- Here is the pole I have it attached to: http://www.amazon.com/Shoreline-SL52236 ... elescoping I went fishing offshore last week and connected it the camera to my gaff, hoping to get a shot of me gaffing a tuna, dorado, or yellowtail. I think the mounting the GoPro to the gaff...

Good idea on the Ram mount. I look forward to seeing your fishing videos. For the Kite, I purchased this parafoil: http://www.amazon.com/Premier-Kites-Par ... afoil+kite I attached the kite ring to a fishing pole with 65lb. spectra. I then fly the kite about forty feet or so behind the boat...

While I have considered Buying a GoPro specific pole, I have found that my telescoping boat hook, with the following adapter works just as well and extends out to 8 feet. Plus it floats. http://gopro.com/camera-mounts/handlebar-seatpost-mount Tim

chromer- I did have a couple issues with the camera not turning on when I got it. I would have to open the case and pull the battery for a hard restart. It only happened a couple times, although both occurred while I was free diving and it required me to climb back into the boat and dry off...

Matt- What is the pitch on the 15" prop for the 115? I have a 90hp ETEC and I think I am over proped. I am at 4800 at WOT. I have had the motor for 18 mo. and have put about 500 hours on it. I love it. -Tim

I have a Mac and use iMovie. It is very easy to use and they have a number of templates that make movies with neat transitions, like this: https://vimeo.com/71694371 I have used Windows Movie Maker in the past, which is quite similar to iMovie. Also pretty easy to use. GoPro just released...

A little GoPro motivation from our recent trip to Catalina, over Labor Day. They are an incredibly versatile little camera. https://vimeo.com/73666941 -Tim C-Pelican

Bluechablis- Thanks for the feedback. We are having a great time shooting video with the GoPro. Before we got it, we hardly took any photos of our trips. Now we argue over who gets to edit them! The kayak is a 2 person Sevylor Diveyak (I think this model is discontinued). We bought it about 8...

On my 1992 Cruiser, I do not have the floor sump pump under the galley. My boat came equipped with a 750 gph bilge pump next to the transom plug. While fishing offshore last summer we were trying to back down on a big fish. In doing so, I took a small wave over the transom. There was probably...

Originally I purchased one of these: http://www.garelick.com/Side-Gunwale-Re ... hting-Seat With the drawers I built, I did not have room for the upper mounting hardware and the seat was so wide that it extended all the way across the aisle and did not let the rear galley door open. The one...

I recently posted a thread about feedback on a 24' TomCat, since it felt like we were outgrowing our 22'. The biggest complaint was that we lacked seating for 3 at the dinette for meals and the 2 hour crossing to Catalina. I just completed an addition to our cabin which may have just saved...

Bluechablis- Great to hear there will be another C-Dory in the neighborhood! Regarding the aerial photos, I bought a $20 kite and with a little duct tape, hung the Go Pro down about 30 feet below the kite. I think "troll" it with 65 lb. spectra fishing line on a fishing rod. I shot a bunch...

Great thread. Looking at our log book, we have been to Catalina 71 nights in the last 18 mo. In all of that time, I think I have seen a total of 4 C-Dory's. Of course I have not been able to make the gatherings during August. We have always been able to find a mooring, but tend to stay away...
