GoPro Mounts
Hi All,
I would like to know what people are using as mounts on boats for the Gopro. I made one up for a jet boat that I have but I would like to put two together back to back to get the front view and rearward view at the same time.
Cheers

RE: GoPro Mounts
Hi
Ive just been using the suction cup mount on most of mine but I harve used
the attachment base fixed to my boats on the F1 outboard and Ivan tboat.
So I can just bring them in and turn the camera around on the clip and send them out again,
I have 2 cameras but I think they will add too much top weight so I haven't run them both at the same time.

Jim,
Thanks, The suction mount wont work because of the moulding on the front deck of the boat, will need to look at some other type, or make my own.

RE: GoPro Mounts
Please teather your cam to the boat(model). I did not and lost the camera/simcard/top hatch. Flotation broke away from the hatch. So....$300+ dollars later. Ouch....that hurt.

Hi John
not a good idea to mount the gopro to the hatch ! did you have a teather line to the hatch lid most people dont but its a good idea I use small stainless steel fishing trace works a treat.
