Cameras on the boat

[Cataboo]

My vest only has one pocket, and it's barely big enough to fit my little rescue mirror, so there isn't a camera out there that would fit in it. I ordered the camera, it shipped, and somehow, magically, it's supposed to take a week for it to get to Connecticut from Jersey. I think they're going to fly it around the world or something first.

Oh, I don't actually put the camera in the pocket. I use some rope to make probably about a 6 inch long loop on the camera. Then I attach a carabiner to the shoulder strap of my PFD. Then I hook the camera into that carabiner and just shove the camera in my pfd above my chest basically.

If I want to take a pic, there's enough line on the camera that I can still take one while it's attached to my pfd. I can drop it if I have to paddle quick, whatever.

I also keep my nose plugs and whistle attached that way.

I hope UPS surprises you and you get it quicker!
