    GoPro Mount

    My wife got me a GoPro Hero3+ for Xmas, my question is, which mount is best to use on my Sparta?
    It comes with 2 adhesive backed pads, and I can buy the Suction Mount. I know that the Adhesive would be best, but then it would be on the boat all the time.
    Worst part of the gift isI live in Michigan, so I wont be able to try it till spring.

    I wouldn't use a suction mount on a flimsy plastic hull.

      What would you use/or not use at all. I have a couple of boats, most fiberglass, 1 wood and a flimsy plastic hull too.

              You could also make something with the square piece the camera came attached to, cut it down and make a mount that you could screw or bolt on.

                DITTO! Probably the best, and safest. Don't forget the floaty.
