I like the RAM brand go pro mounts. Have very good luck with their suction cup its much better then the go pro cup. Very versitle mounting system where all the pieces interchangable and easier to use.

Probably a good rule to not have one and don't allow passengers to vid with their phone. The haters run deep even in our own sport.
You may be correct but a long time ago I decided not to let the possibility of a lawsuit control my life. Seeing as I am 66 tomorrow....I can't see myself changing.

No, but plenty of other people have. Like I said I think it's a recipe for disaster.

I think the coolest vids i have taken with my action cam have been when i used a 'handlebar mount' and attached it to the stern light pole about 2/3-3/4 of the way up. You get to see all the passengers in the shot, where the boat is going and what it really looks like to ride in a go-fast boat.

My action cam has good anti-shake so it doesnt shake too much.
