Title: C34 MKII 1000 Islands Video/Drone shots
Post by: Stucker on February 01, 2019, 01:44:09 PM
I usually cut a yearly video of my summer sailing in 1000 Islands Ontario/NY State and fall in Toronto.  Thought I would share in case some members wanted to see what the area is like.  Note, this is a family video so you will have to sit through the odd shot of some of my family members.  I ended up buying a drone at the end of The season which is why there is limited drone footage.  The other boat is my brother's CS34

Well done. You've got some great memories in that video.

Very nice.  I love the Optimist Dinghy sailing.  Wow, a C34 and a CS34 in the same family.  The CS was high on our list of boats when we ended up buying our Catalina 34 as we had a CS27 previously.  Well built boats ahead of their time.

Yes, the CS34 is a well built boat.  They have a great stand up shower in the head. My MKII feels twice as big in the cockpit and inside though.  And I'm a little faster 😜

Hi Scott,
Love the video, saw the whole thing. Nice family and great vacation_sailing area. I have the same boat, furling main and all. I noticed your main outhaul car was more forward than mine. I adjusted mine back to ease the roll out. I think it helped but have only one season on her.

I'm thinking of a drone as well and noticed how you snatched yours. Nice job!

What drone did you get?

Thanks
Dale

Hey Dale,
My main sail rolls in and out quite nicely so I haven't felt the need to adjust anything.  I'll keep an eye on it though.   I have a Phantom 4 Pro drone.  I only got it at the end of the sailing season so I look forward to flying it a lot more this season.  Keep in mind that you will want to know about updating your home point and turning off collision avoidance if you fly it from a moving boat!
