"......stations and can be mounted in your shower, by your bath, hot tub or pretty much where ever you want. The TV is manufactured to be splash proof / water proof (not designed to be submerged in water!) so there is no need to install this TV in any type of plastic casing as is frequ......"
small problem, unless you never capsize |

get the tacktick wireless compass and wind sensor and mount the displays to it, very pimp for a dinghy. or in the vain of pimpedness turnit into something useless for your boat, like a coin holder |

Well i was thinking of putting it infront of the daggerboard, under the kicker cascade but stuck on with that heavy duty industrial velcro stuff cos im not prepared to be drilling holes in the hull. The thing is its a tad on the large side But yes a pimp bottle/mug/cup holder seems like a good idea. Seeing as its quite big maybe it could be a mount for my waterproof ipod dock aswell. Maybe something like this: What else could i do? |

Where are you going to mount that as a compass bracket? Take the compass out you have a pimp bottle/ cup holder! |

Right my ebay purchase came today. It looked good in the advert but i was a little disappointed with the quality when i opened the box. Its lucky it didnt cost a huge amount. Here it is, a carbon compass bracket thing with analog(right word?) compass. It looks alright from a distance but when you see it close up you can tell it hasnt been made with the most care in the world. Yes they are dry carbon fibres barely attatched underneath! I reckon with a bit of resin and maybe a small sheet of nice carbon cloth i can make it look a bit better. The thing is, do i want to use it as its aimed purpose - a compass bracket, or do I turn it into something else, something a bit more PIMP? THROW ME SOME IDEAS GUYS! Edited by s.a.l.t.y |
