Nothing special, just some nice cruising on long island sound.
Good vid, good angle! How'd you mount the camera?

I got a free little flexible camera mount with a camera I bought years ago, turned out to be incredibly useful. I just taped it to the bridle wires with electrical tape and moved the furler line off to the side.
That is way cool. As a new H-18 owner (been 12 years in the making) this video is well received. Thank's for posting!
How much wind is that if I may ask?

Thanks dude. It wasn't much 10-12 MPH.
Also, I think what really helps with the vid is the $25 fish eye lens I got off amazon... much wider view.
Nice video, Car_Guy, where do you sail out of? I'm in Fairfield.

I have had my boat out once as I just finished it. It was like the dead sea. I expected Old Greg to hop up on the tramp at any moment. Next time, I am taking my mother in law. She can easily moo up a solid 20 gusting to 30.
That fish eye was the right choice. That is a really nice perspective.

I trailer the boat from Manchester area, I've been launching at Neck Rd in Guilford lately. It's not great though... narrow windy river out to sea is a pain if the wind direction isn't right. Any good launches in your area?
