I use an SJ Cam M10 and it's great. 
Came with waterproof case and, during my RS600 years, survived many many submarine trips  LOL
It's a good few years old, has taken a battering and continues to work with no issue whatsoever.

I don't think it's made anymore but I'd recommend SJ Cams in a heartbeat.

We will never know of course, but it would be useful to see how much someones sailing style and boat trim changed when comparing " on camera" to off

That's why I'm doing it. Either proof that I hike like a pussy (so I fix it) or subliminally turn me into a hero till it becomes habit!

I have an Olfi one.five. It's a great little action cam with customer support that is second to none.

I have a GoPro Hero 4 Silver for sale if you are interested. Comes with all the usual stuff and is in perfect order.

I upgraded recently to the 8 Black.

PM me if interested

Veho - make cheap action camera's, with good image quality.
Veho VCC-006-K2s - £66


Moving up the scale. I prefer Drift Innovation cameras to GoPro's.

The current range starts at £124 + £24 for a waterproof case.

You are likely to find older models much cheaper. Like the Drift HD. Which is still a great camera.
