Thanks to the wonderful Adam Bruce and the Row2k crowd for this great post about how to make a great value GoPro mount for your boat. He estimates it costs about US$35 which is under £28 by my reckoning.
I particularly like the fact that it’s a temporary stand – no holes are drilled in the boat canvasses.
Here’s the list of ‘ingredients’
Purchased materials:
- 3 suction cups ($6.87 each)
- 2- 10ft x 3/4” PVC ($2.36 each)
- 3- ¼-20 x 2” stainless steel bolt ($0.61 each)
- 6- ¼-20 x 2.5” stainless steel bolts ($0.67 each)
- Flat black spray paint ($3.76) – optional
Common boathouse materials:
- Scrap 2×4
- 3- 2” screws
- 21- Stainless steel washers
- 9- ¼-20 stainless steel nylon nuts (or lock washer and nut combo)
- Zip ties
Tools:
- Pipe cutting tool (optional but very helpful)
- Circular Saw (or hand saw)
- Drill
- ¼ drill bit
- 1/8 drill bit
- Writing utensil
- Measuring tape
- 2- 7/16” wrenches
