Nice work Ron, thanks for sharing.
 
It also reminded me of my trips to ESTEC many years ago.

thanks for the compliment! 
The first and last track I found at jamendo.com and I searched there for creative commons artists (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/?lang=en) you mostly can use this for private purposes. 
The Second track "Footsteps" is a swiss rockband, they are not together anymore but I've got permission of them to use this track.

thanks you all for the great replies, it was a great pleasure to make this vid, it is a bit of work, but sailing is a great sport, and nowaday's with GoPro & Co it is possible without spending a lot of money to make this kind of vid's of our sailing sport and show this to others!

Great video thanks! Any chance you can detail some of the mounting attachments you used, and the camera settings e.g. wide angle etc? What the best mount to use for a mast top?
Thanks

here is some information about the mounts:

In the upper part of the mast I used a Flymount, mast, the Flymount fits only 20mm to 48mm when you slide it on the mast
In the lower part of the mast (170cm) I've used a modified plastic clamb, in this height my mast has a diameter of approx. 70mm. 
On the transom and on the bow (in 2 positions) I used an old light modified aluminium tripod, one leg on the deck fitted on a aluminium tube and the other 2 legs fitted on the side of the boat with two double suction cups. Between the 2 suction cups I've mounted an aluminium bridge to connect them.
I have a tripod with screw adjusters they don't slide when you put weight on it.  
On the transom I use the same tripod, 2 legs mounted with 2 M4 bolts on the edges (drilled) of the transom and one leg with one double suction cup on the transom. (fat Gecko of delkin.com)
Maybe its possible to mount it on your boat in a different way. 
In the cockpit:
I've also made a camera mount on the swivel base so it will turn with your movements, you only have to pay attention when you tack because of the mainsheet but with a bit of exercise its OK.
On a second place in the cockpit behind the mast I used a single suction cup (mini Gecko of delkin.com)
And I used a watersport helmet with GoPro vented helm strap mount and helmet front mount.

I used the two GoPro HD's at the same time in r3 mod (1280x720, 50fps) 170 angle

when you need more information just ask.
