Camera Setup

Setting up the cameras on the boats

GPS and Technical Overlays

Devices like GPS can record the distance and speed of the boat. The Telemetry overlay allows this data to be see in an attractive and useful way on the video.

Handicap

The Handicap system tries to make competing different boats against each other a bit fairer and leaves the positioning to the skill of the Helm

Filming

Filming from the bank or shore, or adding the cameras to the boat being filmed, or getting in the camera boat to get those videos and pictures.

All Electric

One of the decisions we made when getting the boats was to be green and go all electric, and have the battery charged via the solar chargers.

Charger Problems

I recently invested in a new E30 battery for the Whaly, along with a second charger to enhance our boating experience. One charger is installed on the boat, with cables neatly buried under the floor and a mains outlet in the steering console, allowing convenient charging while the battery is on board.

To maximize efficiency, I bought a second charger to use at home, powered by our solar array. This setup enables us to charge the boat for free. However, despite advertising as the current model, the second charger turned out to be an older version with spade clips, not the latest connectors.

Epropulsion informed me of this discrepancy, but they do not offer replacement cables. The new cable is only available with new chargers.

I reached out to Epropulsion three days ago to inquire about the necessary plug type but have yet to receive a response. This leaves me with £400 worth of equipment that is unusable due to the connector issue. Frustrating, but I remain hopeful for a resolution soon.
