Skater Goes High Tech w/Nightvision
#21
Great Idea ! Would love to have that technology.
Reminds me of Stepbrothers movie........
" Holy Santa Claus Sh!t !!!!"
"How cool would it be if we had these when we were kids ? Even better, we got 'em when we're forty !"
"The thing with the goggles is they're not that noticeable when they are on your face !"
LOL !!!

Check out my Nighthawk Thermal Infrared Camera that I just installed on my 28' Skater. Tried it for the first time the other night and it is awesome. Being able to see in total darkness and see things in the water like coconuts/markers etc like it was daylight is amazing. What do you guys think?
Here is a link of the movement.

Agreed definatly cool! But useless for me too.
We get some long midnight runs down the Mississippi and I am the type of person who would rather trust my eyes with a spot light than looking at a screen.
Maybe an offshore situation I might trust, but not a river.

I designed this one to fit any application and it is adjustable so you can install it on a boat that is transom heavy or one that runs flat. Latham Marine did the fabrication and it is super strong. It will debut to the public at the Miami Boat Show.

That is why they use them for search and rescue.

Are you able to adjust the range of temperature you are viewing, I use a Fluke TI55 at work, I think it is a great concept but in the range of temps are too broad I would be afraid that things with similar temps wont be recognizable.
