lake superior north shore [video]

this is a sweet video made using a Hoverthings HPV with a GoPro video camera to capture stunning views of the north shoreline of Lake Superior in northern Minnesota. a few of the areas that are in the video:

Temperance River, Cascade River, Tettegouche, Judge Magney, and Gooseberry Falls are among the state parks featured, as well as Grand Marais and Palisade Head.

as usual, worth it to load this up in high definition and watch it full screen.

GoPro Laser sailing

pretty sweet video shot with a GoPro Hero 3 video camera, using a pole mount, to capture some Laser sailing.  I like the slow-motion effects they used, too!

new year’s day sunfish sailing [video]

here is a pretty cool video of a Sunfish sailing regatta on New Year’s Day hosted by the Edgewood Yacht Club in Narragansett Bay, RI.

towards the very end of the video, the sailor is sailing incredibly fast on a downwind leg – the Sunfish is planing and just flying across the water.

sailfish sailing video

after posting the question earlier: a 1960 Corvette or (2) Sailfish, I was looking up some information on the Sailfish sailboat, and I stumbled on this video of a Sailfish sailing.

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a sail rigged up quite that high!

here’s another great page – with highlights from the 1949 issue of LIFE magazine that showcased the Sailfish sailboat, and a restoration project to clean up an old Sailfish.
