Here's a try of the movie posting feature

[Gary Kunkel]

I wanted to test the new "post a movie" feature with this very short segment. It's of a fairly large Mola mola (Ocean Sunfish) we saw coming back from North Coronado Island in Mexico to San Diego. Here goes nothing ....Gary Kunkel

Failure

Well ... that actually WAS nothing. I expected a prompt to upload my mpg file but didn't see any such thing. Back to the drawing board.Gary

Video Taping My New Anchor

Here is a video of my new anchor setting in hard sand..Edited to say WOW IT WORKED!!!

 

[Tim R.]

Nice!

I may try and test mine too. Where was this? Looks like the Cousins Island tower in the background. Falmouth? Yarmouth?Tim R.

Falmouth Town Landing

At the bottom of the hill on the right there is a hard sand beach with a mud under layer. It's a good spot to see if an anchor will penetrate and if so how long does it take. What anchor do you have? I'd like to get a bunch on video tape to compare. E-mail me halekai36@hotmail.com off line and perhaps we can find people with a CQR, Bruce, Delta etc. I have a Spade, Fortress and a Manson but my Bruce is loaned to a buddy out cruising..

Great new Feature, BUT

I only hope this settles into sailing or personal videos not "trunk monkeys" which can be seen on 10,000 websites. Time will tellKeep up the good workWard
