I had a gopro camera on my engine hatch with the stick on mount it left the boat in the long island sound. The base of the camera broke. Suction cup would be less ridged might still have the camera. Had some real good video but its gone.

That sucks. I always tie a rope to mine just in case, but that probably wouldn't even work if the damn thing just snapped!

Time to go diving!

get the 1/4 inch threaded adapter
and then go to a real professional level camera shop
you should be able to find a double suction cup mount like I use
its got a swivel that'll do anything!
a much better clamp is made by ManFrotto

ALWAYS use a tether / piece of string

and
hook up the gopro so it is ''''hanging''''
and flip the picture so it don't record everything upside down

when its upright the camera will eventually flop over
the choppier the water, the worse it is

I have had numerous Go Pro's and bought some Replay camera's after checking the out at PRI in Orlando, well I am now a dealer and can say these camera's are awesome, the mount's are solid. Easy to start, and use, video's in 1080i.
