    Hi,

    That was made by someone with just a little too much time on their hands and some good video skills.

    No skills required. GoPro set at 1 frame every 30 seconds, or other time lapse rate.

    No argument there. I've tried to make sense of some of those owner's manuals as well. Way beyond my skill-set.

    Thats awesome. The extra speed must have come from the Furuno IMO radar spinning at such a breakneck pace, therefore decreasing the available amount of wetted hull surface area.....nice job on the video.

    Not beyond your skill set, but beyond the amount of time you can devote to a given task. Manufactures have lost touch with human reality. We all have lives outside of their silly products. I've been known to write a line or two code on a couple glasses of port, but I still can't get my VCR to stop blinking 12:00!

    Manuals? Who needs 'em! Just press buttons till something breaks.
