2017 started well enough in Southeastern PA

[Brian S]

It was a brilliantly sunny day New Year's day, with not a cloud in the sky, temps in the upper 40's, and a respectable breeze. Since the water is still soft, you know what that means:

Please disregard the date code on the video. I haven't used this cam since I got it, and of course the date and time need to be re-set, and changed to not show in video. Plenty of time to do that this coming season. Video shot on $60 Chinese GoPro knockoff, an SJCam4000 shot at 1080p resolution. Not too shabby. I've seen other video examples comparing the SJ4000 to a GoPro, and the SJ wins.

Nice day for a sail! How about some commentary or background music? I should not be so picky, because I spent two hours cutting brush and small trees with a chainsaw and a lopper. No video or background music for me either! Thanks for posting the video.

 

[Brian S]

Yeah, sorry about no fancy stuff. I basically just pulled the video off the camera and uploaded. Mebbie I'll finally try to mess around with iMovie...

water sure looks softer than this time last year Brian, great video quality,

Nice job on the video! I'm a bit surprised I didn't see spray running down you face. Nice day to be sure.

Brian thanks for the vid. I'm a big fan of boat noise so I thought it was perfect!

Looks like a nice day indeed! I am cleared by the doc on Wed. It will not be long for me getting back on the water.

Haha, there's a heckuvalot more hull noise from this Force 5 than either my Harpoon 4.6 (which was Boston Whaler legendary unsinkable foam) or my O'day 192, I can tell you that! I guess since it's kinda a big hollow void, it just amplifies wave slaps...

Not as crazy as you might think. My Ovation acoustic guitar has a molded bowl shape made from Lycra, I think it is. Or is that Lyrica???
