Paddling "Sulu Sea" on Kelly Dudley Lakes in SE Minnesota
Future videos will feature a wider angle of view than I was able to achieve with my Flip Video Ultra HD mounted on the forward ama post.
But the video shows that you can indeed use a double paddle and sit on a comfortable beach chair to enjoy the great, aquatic outdoors, on a car topper outrigger canoe.
The minimum clearance you need to comfortably us a double paddle:
fore and aft -- six and a half feet between the waka from the centerline outward -- four feet
Notes:
- It took about an hour to upload this video to blogger.com and YouTube, simultaneously, over the cafe's wifi.
- It took a similarly long time for Windows Live Movie Maker to load the 34 minute original HD MP4 file for editing.
- I still don't know anything about the best file format for uploading videos --- an excellent research topic.
- In future I will shoot shorter video clips and upload shorter video segments, until I can upgrade my computer, wifi speed, or both.-
