Hi Guys

Theres a lot of talk about people taking their phones out on the water for use as GPS trackers.etc like using the GoFastHow app.

I know there are waterproof cases.etc but are there any accessories available like a Tactic bracket but for phones that have an integrated waterproof case?
How do you guys do it?

Cheers

Dan

Dan,

we use an aquapac and use the velcro strap to strap it to the mast (we use the lanyard as a safety leash to a fitting on the hull)
haven't found anything solid yet but otterbox do a tractor proof clear box but you can't use the buttons/swipe

Otterbox was recommended to me. Google it.

Biologic case for iPhone goes on my bike (what it was primarily designed for) but also fits, off mount, into my BA front pocket. Handy when going cruising for the odd photo or phone call "we'll be back at the club in 20 mins, fancy lunch?". Never immmersed it (more by luck than judgement) but has been through heavy-ish rain on the bike without leaking.
