I'm still learning....only the second time I've done it, but on this one added it in movie maker . I just looked through my I tunes library and used a song that was ok that matched the length of the edited video....(just listed all my songs by length)

YouTube doesn't give many music options that I can see...and won't match the length of movie.....but will allow watching on phones etc....as I guess there are no copyright issues etc?

Going to down load some free movie software that allows me to do slow motion...(movie maker may, I just can't see it or need to pay with it more..)

Cheers Peter, I'm relativly new to editing myself and don't have itunes or ipad of my own, however I got my lad one for xmas so I'll see if I can unglue it from his hands laters, have a look and upload to my LT.
Youtube has got a vid editor btw, but no great selection of tunes.
Cheers

Great to meet you lot, thanks for the mob practice got my glove wet though but glad we saved your cover
Sorry you got wet - and like I say, we'll try to be a bit more sociable on subsequent trips. It was only our third time out on the water so I didn't want to push my luck too far with the crew. I think we made the right call 'cos we all enjoyed the day and it hasn't put anyone off.

Nice rib by the way, heard lots of good things from Trevor G about the ballistic 6.5
Cool, though it's not mine, it belongs to a boating scheme company and I get to use it now and again. If the novelty doesn't wear off after a year or so, and we get an idea of what to look for in a rib, then we may get into the market for our own.

We'll be keeping a look out for more trips to join in; as displaced northerners we are not afraid of a bit of cold weather, though more cold weather kit is definitely on the list!

Yep, we were doing 44 knots from Portsmouth to Cowes with the tide and around 40 - 42 knots against it. This has sparked a whole new conversation about prop sizes and if stainless is a good idea as mine is slipping in the water a bit (to fast acceleration so the prop can slip in the water rather than push the boat along) I think I need to go up in size and may be change to stainless....

I'm using a suzuki 3 x 14 x 21 Alli normally revs to 6k but tried trimming out at wot a bit more than usual as it was flat calm, went up to 44 knots and 6.4k

Thinking about a 3 x 14 x 22 Stainless Steel.

AJ's running a 4 blade SS....
