My first video
 
Upon the recommendation of another member on OSO bought a Sony Action cam with GPS enabled video, pretty cool technology. The Sony editing software overlays the GPS data onto the video... Attached is my first video

Looks great!!
I did a quick google search for it?? Looks like the package is $359.00?? Does that include the gps or do you link it to your existing GPS?

I got mine at Best Buy. There are a number of Sony Action cams to choose from but you need one that is GPS enabled and the GPS is built in. I spent about $420 for the camera, suction cup stand, 64 memory card and remote screen. The remote screen is cool, allows you to see what the camera sees and start and stop the camera at will. I removed the remote from the wrist band and velcro'd it to my dash. Then download the free Sony editing software and you are in business.

Great technology but the video quality itself doesn't look very crisp. Maybe it's just my feed.

It will never cease to amaze me how slow boats look when the camera is facing forward, that was super smooth, and a really nice set-up.

Awesome! I would love to see video from the other boats you passed! Some looked like they were standing still! :)

Yea, I recorded this video in 720/30fps setting due to the size of the files. The camera is capable of 1080/240 fps which would be much clearer but HUGE files....
