Normal.dotm 0 0 1 373 2129 Lyons Township High School 17 4 2614 12.0 0 false 18 pt 18 pt 0 0 false false false Introducing the “Original Kayak Camera Mount” (Patent Pending). This is a custom machined camera mounting system that is compatible with the Hobie(TM) kayak sail mast hole on Hobie(TM) brand kayaks. PLEASE NOTE: Some heavier DSLR cameras, especially ones with large lenses, do not work well with this mount. If you are using a larger camera, please contact me before buying. Custom sizes are available.

I have made many custom configurations for my clients all over the world If you need a custom size, please contact me for a free quote. I was tired of taking “poor” cell phone pictures of the fish I catch, not to mention that they always looked smaller, so I designed this camera mounting system to take the pictures of me holding the fish, and not of my hand holding the fish. (See the last pictures above.) This system allows the kayak fisherman to take pictures of him/herself holding their catch. It can also be used to digitally record fishing excursions or just scenic kayak/canoe/boat trips altogether by using a digital camcorder instead of a digital camera. It’s so easy to use. 1.

Simply screw the camera on tight to the 1/4-20 thread and align the camera before leaving shore. 2. Lock the machined camera mount into position with the thumb screw and store it until it is needed. 3. When ready, set the timer, re-install the mounting arm, hold up your fish and smile. See the last 5 pictures above are the end result of using this system in freshwater and salt water. Looks great, right?

Cut and paste this "watch? V=99QtV0HkXIU" address into the YouTube search bar and watch Scotty C. Catch a huge mackerel in Australia using this mount! Way to go Scott! This system allows the operator to move the camera in three different ways and is made here in the USA.

· The mounting arm will spin 360 degrees in the mast hole. · The machined camera mount spins freely 360 degrees until locked in place. · The camera mounting head tilts 90 degrees for taking pictures of larger, longer fish, like tarpon, sailfish, musky, tuna, mackerel, etc. · This system is machined from a heavy-duty industrial plastic and aluminum so it will not rust. · Each one is made and machined personally by me · This mount is strong, light weight, and very sturdy.

· Cleaning the camera mount needs to be done with cold soapy water and a clean towel and allowed to dry over night. · Do not use strong cleaning agents or thinning chemicals, as they will most likely ruin the finish. I offer 8 styles to date, including this "goose-necked" version, a shorter “stow-able” version and a "slimline" version that are compatible with Hobie(TM) brand kayaks and with the Scotty Rod(TM) and Attwood(TM) rod holder bases. See my other auctions for these products. This camera mount is approximately 25“ long from end to end and the set back of this "goose-neck" version is approximately 13".

Custom sizes are available. Please contact me with dimensions for a quote. If you have another style of mount, I may ask you to ship the mount to me so I can machine your mounting arm/s for a perfect fit. Orders will be filled on a first come, first served basis. Turn around time is usually 1 week, but in some custom applications please allow 1-3 weeks for machining and shipping.

There are times when I have certain styles in stock and ready for packaging. Try one and you too will be able to take quality photos and videos you will be proud to share. If you have any questions, please contact me. Check out my feedback from customers and read what they have said about these mounts! Have a blessed day and thanks for looking.
