Re: [Paddlewise] Camera Recommendation

The 344 should be perfect. I'm wondering about a GPS mount-solution too. 
Atlantis Kayaks has a nice GPS holder molded into their foredecks on certain 
models, but the Scotty do-all mount idea has merit for multiple uses.

I'm writing an article on kayaking around Victoria and area. Duane's done a 
couple in these series on So. Cal - his neck of the woods. I like the series 
in SeaKayaker and would like to contribute this way - counting it as a 
priveledge. If they like it and the pictures, that should cover the new 
camera and some extras as I re-gear (and re-boat). I've only just stopped 
working my Saturdays so hope to have a bit more time for writing. Thanks for 
the offer for pic though Philip

Well, I'm all decompressed after a hectic week last week, so no weird humor 
now the weekend is moving along. :-)

Re the Scotty deck mount: Both Mike J and I have the older mount, the one 
shown first on this page:

http://www.scotty.com/marine/products/product/rodholders/mounts_flush.html#

The rubber cap isn't wave or roll watertight, and the bottom is open. We've 
sealed ours with reamed out PVC plumbing end caps, but Scotty now makes a 
model that comes pre-sealed - the 344, the third item on that same page.

I'll link to some same photos once I get them uploaded. They won't be in 
Mark's league, though - he's the master.

BTY, what's the SK article on? Perhaps I have some existing photos that 
would work.

Cheers,

Philip
