Tessie got a new eye! Testing the Raymarine FLIR M300C lowlight and zoom camera.

- Опубліковано 26 вер 2024
- Check out the Tessie's new enhanced vision as Raymarine let me test their FLIR M300C low light and 30 x zoom camera. This is a big lift for my singlehanded navigation. The camera sits 4 meter up the mast on its Scanstrut support bracket, and is connected to my 3 x Axiom chartplotters. The camera is gyro stabilised, meaning keep the camera lens still while the boat is moving around in the waves.
It is able to keep a clear vision, even in very low light conditions. A 30 x zoom lets me see obsticles, ships and other objects far away to chart the surroundings while navigating.
This will be a very cntral part when closing into the ice of Greenland in a few weeks. I also hope to detect polarbears and whales as I enter the icy, cold coast.
Getting prepared for departure in just a few days now!

Erik, your boat is becoming a hi tech spaceship ! thanks for sharing your innovations ! May Eole and Neptune always watch on you !
Father Christmas arrive very early this year. Congrats with the new FLIR camera.!!👍💪
Cool setup... seven grand just for the camera. It's gonna add bonus content to your ALREADY amazing episodes. It's just you and Sam for my favorite single-handers. Thanks
That's a great addition to the boat.
You are most impressive!! 😮🤗👍❤. This is going to be an epic voyage, for sure, with amazing footage. You must be getting a little anxious now. I hope you get some good sleep and build up your strength before you go! Take care.😎🤩😊
Cameras a great addition and will be one more thing to keep you entertained during downtime or viewing beautiful landscapes.
Hi Erik. Thanks for another cool video.
Maybe many boats will be doing watches from below deck! if you put this on top of the mast you can have full visibility without being blocked buy the headsail, keep up the good work!
Greenland🇬🇱. ..I do hope you make it this time. - YOU do deserve it.
N.B.J.S. 💪👊🇳🇴
Such a beautiful boat.
Erik, I’m so happy for you to have the latest safety equipment, if anybody can benefit from it, it would be you. 👍👍
I proudly wear your hat everyday. ❤
_"if anybody can benefit from it, it would be you"_
That sounds mildly insulting 😂
Yes and then go on deck with 35 knots wind ……with no personal safety gear at all…….😮
Nice kit 👍🏴
I am new to sailing and I bought my first sailboat last year, a small 25ft, 50 years old boat that I have since working to restore. Doing most of the work on my boat alone as well, I just wanted to say that I really appreciate the effort and extra planning involved when working by yourself! Congratulations on the new equipment
I can see Iceland already…very excited and can’t wait. Stay safe.
That's quite cool thing! I wonder what's available in few years when the moment comes to get equipment for SeaCamel... 😛
That zoom is immense!
Great installation! Amazing camera.
Now you're looking for polar bears! Ha love it!!
👀👀😎
Erik, pls be careful. Your illness is stealing your vitality. You must be aware that you cannot push as hard as you once did. If you do push yourself, I fear you may end up harmed. The Force 10 vid is what brought me to your channel -- agreed. But you are interesting for many reasons. You do not need to put yourself in danger to maintain your viewership. We are already sold on your vids.
£7000??? Bloody hell. I would want it to show me videos all night as well and do my washing up haha Can't wait to see it in action.
Yeah and wake me a with a bj
I suspect it will be of limited usefulness when under sail.
@@johnwhite626Don't know. This equipment is very rare to see in such small yatchs (due to costs, mostly, obvious), but virtually every "big" yatch has one. It is certain that Erik will end having more electronics onboard 34 feet Tessie than on a US Navy destroyer...
@@alamos8 lol - and a maintenance schedule to keep him busy sorting out electrical issues..
And the amount of power required by all his “Raymarine gear” must be A Lot!!! But, free is free!😂
Awesome dude!! That’s a lovey bit of kit. Really looking forward to the Greenland trip, and hopefully this makes it a little bit easier for you.
Wow awesome improvements!
Brilliant picture
Really sweet camera. Very nice.
Congratulations Erik!!!
nails are rivets and rivet set gun. always have spare drills for breakages up the mast .love your work sailor.
Wow, what a piece of tech. Good luck. Will follow.
This is the most awesome channel on UA-cam
Alluring Arctic Sailing are a very very close second. They also are about to sail to Greenland using the Northwest Passage.
Norway vs Finland
Man that's a top FLIR camera , You are a very lucky man Erik .
tight sails my friend
Robert (contessa 32 ) NSW Australia
Cool system. Help you see obstructions in the water and any problems with the boat inside the cabin. Cheers🍻⛵
Love the Raymarine FLIR M300C install Eric. She will make a big difference as you navigate single handedly.
An excellent piece of work, Erik. If this makes your journey safer as a solo sailor, it's worth every penny. Given the huge pressures that are already exerted on a mast, the mounting of this camera will be inconsequential.
Thats pretty sweet, but wont the sails be in the way a lot of the time?
Camera is slightly installed towards starboard of center making it possible to at least see straight forward when sails are on port side. And one can always change the course to one side to get view for a minute😇
If you put it on the masthead you could have a 360 degree view. I guess that’s a trade off with the extra mass aloft. Or you could get two cameras, one on each side of the mast :-)
Nice piece of safety equipment.
1:46 Cool. Tessie is the only sailboat I know of that could have it's own IT Department!! 🤣
😂😂
😂😂poor Eric, all this teasing in the comments. Fortunately, this Viking has a sense of humour! 😂😂😂😂
Good luck, Erik. You'll do it this time.
Erik, thank you for the introduction to our first-ever patented Smart Collision Prevention System. We look forward to you testing it out at sea and wish you a safe voyage!
Thank you! This will be awesome😎😎
Very cool, I live just a few miles away from FLIR headquarters and research and development
That zoom was incredible! It was more stable than I could be with binoculars. I hope it records footage. What a great addition to your solo adventures!
It can record to a usb port/ memorycard. Will be a great addition in many ways!
@@erikaanderaa You can also get the Raymarine network storage which stores video and information.
I am amazed that drilling into a mast is preferable to a clamp based mounting system. Not being a mech eng that is.
That FLIR is HUGE!! My gosh!
WOW! a lot of electronics, you should have an enhance peace of mind and sleep. The best of luck for your journey to Greenland and a very successful one. Have a safe and fun adventure!
Great idea and well done!
This mast looks more and more like a Christmas tree. 😁I hope people will start to merge more and more of these sensors into small and effective modules. But if it ads extra protection for single handler- it is worth the clutter I guess.
Cool toy!
Great vids,teck sharing much appreciated never a dull moment.Please wear a harness when not in the cockpit.Don't use up you'r luck.will help keep you'r valuable channel going.
Fantastic!👏🏼👏🏼
Weird is good!
🙂stay safe⛵
Hello Eryk* I see that you are not only a sea wolf, but also... a mountaineer :) You told the story nicely and showed the modernization. With your narration and film talent, even such technical editing becomes interesting* Regards
Nice kit.
Love your channel Erik. Looking forward to the Greenland adventure MK4 (or is it MK5;) Many years ago I used to live in Haugesund and still have many friends there. Love seeing Risoy Broen in the background. Many winter days walking across that bridge in the rain and wind ⛈️ to go to work! trygge reiser
Thank you! I think its MK4 now, losing track😅
great camera
Woooow very nice
Looks like you're getting lots of good toys to help keep a lookout! The shallow water warning should help avoid running Tassie aground again i hope!
That one will wake you up for sure!
Veldig bra, Raymarine!
Your app looks awesome! I'm looking forward to following your next trip, Erik. Thanks for creating such amazing content to share with us.
very kewl Eric
Thats a cool piece of kit. Not something I'll ever have, but still cool.
I'm looking for something like this to attach to the pulpit. I usually sail in very busy waters and with a camera on the pulpit I'd be able to see vessels approaching in my blind spot on the lee.
What a superb device ... ok so it's not cheap, but then again, what navionics products for sailing are cheap? None :) And if it can automatically "stand watch" for you while you rest, then it has to be worth it ... will make a lot of difference to solo or twin sailors everywhere ... twins because you end up standing watch while your partner rests, which can mean you never see each other, other than for 5 mins at watch handovers. I've also downloaded the app - nice one! Will be fun tracking you on the upcoming Greenland trip :) Happy sailing Erik, and a safe time of things too.
YESssssssss!!!!! 👏👏🍺
Cool beans👍🍸
Mate in the med you can zoom on the girls with bikini's ;)
Great stuff, wouldnt it smart to seal the wooden ( balsa core) sandwich of the deck-holes with epoxy ? Holes tend to leak sooner or later and rotten sandwich core is usually the ( economically) end of a boat
thirty years ago I spent a lot on Raymarine bits, the alternator regulator went silly and all those bits were dead.
Raymarine failed to allow for overvoltage with a 2 cents regulator protection, which I think was a criminal ommision.
I hope for you their new stuff is protected to an industry standard.
Even Clipper are, and they are cheap.
Best of luck with this years Greenland trip.
Woa! I want one! Please can I have one Uncle Erik?
If you are a good boy for Christmas it might turn up😎
Linking and visual tracking AIS targets is pretty spiffy. I thought it would be handy to track a MOB - but that is less than useful for a single handed.😉
Erik, do you have a clear view forward when the headsail is set to starboard? Cool gear; But it also costs €6,759.00 without the cable and switch. Plus another €480 for the Scanstrut Mast Mount.
Thank you for a god instruction/video.
I wonder how it is for collision awoidence compared to the Oscar? Have they transferred the AI and software from Oscar system into this new Flir camera?
Can you roughly estimate the detection distance for a floating container, a 40 feet sailboat and a 100m cargo ship?
2nd tag-along view; 6th LIKE.
That's a really cool boat. Really nice technology on it. Ever thought about doing a circumnavigation?
Every day😇
Keep it simple is not for you 😂
Det blir gøy å følge med dette man 😎👨✈️👨✈️👊
I would not put the safety wire in to place, if that unit start banging te mast in high seas you will not be able to get it down and it will damage the mast for sure with the steel bottum plate. Might cause the mast to fall down.
Very nice safety addition: 2 questions:
1. Will those 12 drill holes weaken the mast?
2. What is your mast climbing gear?
Thanks,
Jules
It wont for sure not make it stronger, but reviting the holes they get somewhat restrenghtened
I hope they gave that to you! A commercial like that would cost Raymarine thousands upon thousands.
Lovely setup how much power does this consume? SV Skoiern lV 🎉
It looks like an owl, a real one eye pirate owl :)
Just downloaded the app!
Great, thanks🙏
Hi. I am a sailor from Poland. What does the image from the FILR camera look like during a storm? Rain may distort the image. Have you checked? Did this camera pass the test?
Beste oppdagelsen på youtube på ei god stund ❤
Tessie…the fully integrated Aegis Frigate edition 😎🤓 🤖
A good kit for new adventures to come. How about the one the top, the collision avoidance?
It is getting an upgrade/ new control unit tomorrow!
I love the camera. You will have huge fun. Can you record videomwith this new camera?
Yes indeed! With also be a big lift for videoproduction😀
Hi Erik, looks great. Was there no way to feed the wires inside the mast?
Sheets and falls, sheets and falls 😀
rivets, good sir, not nails, just FYI, love your channel!
👏👏👏
That is some next level shit.
A little less sailing, a bit more (bull)shit…..
Love your content. Why did you mount it offset from centerline?
Thanks! To be able to have vision aftwards. Port aft beam I can live without. And also to get the camera slightly away from the staysail👍
that Camera will be good and add to the video when the weather kicks up
No Sailing, Just Bullshit ;-). That FLIR is pretty sweet!
Thanks for video.
Sorry Erik,
Can ypu please give some advice regarding Autopilot. I have quite similar boat us you have, GAMBLER35. Dimensions al.ost the same.
I still dont know whst kind of Autopilot to buy.
Autopilot on wheel is made for weight up to 7t.
Hi Erik, I am working in Haugsund for a couple of weeks are you in port?
@erikaanderaa cool tech, for sure! Unrelated, im curious if you have to drive far to get to your marina to work on your boat?
Only a 10 min trip☺️
@@erikaanderaa Lucky! I recently moved my boat from a 45min away marina that was at the end of a deep fjord, to one that has better access to open waters but is 90min away. Cheers 🍻
is there a small blind-spot port-starboard?
Amazing technology.. can't wait to find a Chinese and affordable price
👍
Probably will want to move it to the bowsprit area lest you have half the image hidden by the jib.
Thankfully, the Small Modular Reactor technology is finally here. You'll soon need to be towing one of those behind you, lol
Only draws 2 amps😇
