Was thinking ' thats not wet' - right up till 1.37 ! Very nice vid. What was in the boat at the end - must be octopus , mermaid , fish ? It looks very interesting !
Great stuff.

Well you can't expect anything different in a BananaShark.
According to Kev (kitten) it's the wettest boat he's ever been in

Yeah well it was Pi***ng with rain.
Anyway talk about any excuse to have a pop, that was a Cougar
Hey Lewy, I stuffed your boat so well one day that we tore the flag of the A frame and filled the boat to the top of the tubes with water, even moved the wind deflectors on the consoles back, but she kept going and we were fine (if a little damp)> Testing eh? what fun?

nice one Kitten!! as you say stuffing is the problem but i've learned to control the foot pedal so well now that it rarely happens. 
Trouble is, the bloody boat just insists on being pushed and pushed. She just dont wanna go at sensible speeds.

Could see you doing a bit of wave negotiating there Tony with power and steering .. but funny how you never see the one that gets ya .. Cam set up for general cruise footage obviously, but perfect for that kind of shot Nice one

Enjoyed seeing that Tony.! You were fairly tramping along.! What kind of camera are you using if you dont mind me asking? It takes fantastic footage whatever it is. Is it attached to your A-Frame?

Hi, The camera is a Gopro Hero HD wide, attached to the top of the A Frame
The quality it takes is beyond belief for a little camera..
I'm glad the video has been enjoyed by all....lol..

Great video
I was flying over you at the time, cursing not having taken the RIB. Maybe I was better off in the dry and relative warmth of a trislander!
