    Nice Andy!
    How did you keep the cam so still?
    Great example of how they work!

    Yes it is a GoPro but this vid was taken with my old pre HD camera.
    Didn't want to put my new camera under there until i'd tried it with the old one.
    will probably do a vid with the HD hero 3 later now I know the camera is not having a hard time under there

    Nice vid Andy.
    When you fitted the Smart Tabs (I assume you fitted them) did they help in controlling the low speed wander?
    I do most of my boating on the River Thames these days so plenty of slow speed boating and my 182 has a mind of its own.

    going to fit the tabs later in the year but wanted to know how it affected your boats handling.

    cheers
    Lewy

    Do it Lewy
    you'll be amazed at the low speed stability.

    I know I shouldn't say this but I can leave the helm at less than 6 knots and put the fenders out and she's still going straight when i'm done......
