rear view camera

I use one of these cameras to record everything on my deck when fishing. Its the cheapest way that I found to get picture and sound. I have a 12v tv vcr and hook up the cam through the yellow and white plugs and the cam is 12v too. Put tape in and hit record and get two hours before you need to flip...

To be done right and look great you need a pro and thats going to mean alot of $$$ to do it. A couple of Gs easy.

My two cents, UV is right the water is going to get in. They cant be lifted because there not outboards. They might be fast and fuel efficient but hitting something and its going to leak for sure. Its better than the prop on the front but not much. they will all be in a junk yard before long.
