An Afternoon in Under 2 Minutes

Here’s a video of an afternoon’s sailing time lapsed out to a minute-and-a-half.

It was a lovely afternoon in Howe Sound, with a nice breeze from the Strait of Georgia.  Madsu’s under a full main and a 100% jib and moving along nicely.

The camera is a GoPro Hero2 mounted on a Horizon True hydraulic mount.  I’ll be experimenting with different camera placement over the summer – this was mounted on the pushpit, a bit to port.  The mount is a real delight, and now has its own Pelican case for bringing down to the boat.
