plaicemat Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Keep the envious remarks down, I don't want Dilys spotting them. I've convinced her it's normal to take a year off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul D Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Tom, Count me in please. Sounds great fun. It would also be good if someone could bring a video camera as well ( Digital would be best - but I have an old analogue one if no-one has one ). I have a nice new fangled DVD Recorder / editor etc and would be more than happy to compile a DVD with "action" shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 u will have to go slow paul or wont be able to keep up with the camera any idea on the dates yet sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fugazi Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Tom, Any Friday PM, Saturday or Sunday suits me providing it doesn't clash with the comps. Talking of digital video camera's can anyone recommend a small lightweight one that can be used out on the boat and preferably stores data in flash memory. I bought one a while ago off a shopping channel but its rubbish. Gordon H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul D Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 I have been pondering over getting this one for the boat - would be interested if anyone has one already. Cheap video camera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britboard Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Tom I'll come out with a broadcast quality video camera and take some footage for the club and boat owners if you like. Let me Know Dates etc and if you can piccys of the chosen camera boat so i can decide what tripods, poles and clamps i would need to bring as these are not the sort of cameras i would want on my shoulder all day on a moving boat. later Simon L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please make sure your gear is insured as although you will be, the camera won't on my insurance! If you visit http://www.southernmotorboats.co.uk or http://www.jeanneau.fr you'll see the boat. Baby 32 foot flybridge. Reasonable space to move about, good sized cockpit and small but usable flybridge. Alternatively, if we still have her, our stock used Prestige 32 which will be that more comfortable on the bridge. Dates: At the moment I would suggest a Saturday in a couple of weeks?

CREZZ Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Hello Tom , Most dates ok by me except 11th to 18th of june where i will be doing best part of bugger all for the week on a Greek beach , apart from drinking and watching the football that is. Pugwash , I like the idea of synchronised Orkneys , we could do the opening title bit to Miami Vice , where the two power boats are bombing along to the title music . I think they actually used strikeliners for those shots . Obviously Tom , majority rules so if most can make it while i'm away so be it , Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomBettle Posted May 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 Bugger it, we'll find a way to manage. I may have to keep the number of photo's of each boat down to 12 or 15... PC world are going to get a bumper order of CD Roms by te look of it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul D Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 Tom, Don't go buying any blank CD-Roms as I usually get them dirt cheap from Novatech ( I assume it was a tongue in cheek remark but just in case ! ... ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 Crezz...glad you are up for the synchro action thing! Miami Vice intro would be great. I could play the part of Tubbs!!! Tom I'm available most weekends for the forseeable future. I will need to come from Christchurch so i'll get there as quick as I can It's best if I fall in with the concencus (good word) rather than try and specify my own rigid dates Perhaps we might be able to share a few thoughts at the next club meeting? Hope so. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britboard Posted May 26, 2006 Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 Christ you guys plan to set me a challenge! to make you two look like crocket and tubs i'll need the help of the complete George Lucas empire. Simon L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
