Larry G. Our friend and fellow Tayana owner is going sailing with us tomorrow.

Thanks to Steve Switzer, we have bought a prety cool video camera and are thinking about supplying video to the following group. Here is the info Steve sent us and the reason we decided to ge the new camera. We had a FLIP camera but I think we will like this new one a lot more.

Got Offshore Video? You Could be the Next Reality TV Star

Posted on October 28, 2011 by sarah
Are you sailing offshore to the Caribbean this fall? Have a video camera? Lone Wolf Documentary Group and SeaAcher Productions, two television documentary production companies, have teamed up to produce a reality series about the adventure and drama of offshore sailing and cruising. Their plan is to gather stories from sailors who are willing to shoot videos of their voyages–or have already done so. They are looking for clips of people talking about problems and solutions, radio chatter, weather forecasts and the action of sailing a boat in heavy weather. They also need to show the fun, sun and drama of a sea voyage. From this material, the producers will create a pilot for television executives at Discovery and National Geographic. They want to show the potential of a reality series, not unlike “Dirty Jobs,” “Deadliest Catch” and “Whale Wars.”

I think this sound pretty cool. What do you think?

We should have a sailing video to post tomorrow night if all goes well. We tried to film our sail yesterday, but I had it set up wrong and we didn't get a thing. All along we thought we were filming an awesome sail.
