Lest FFTW's head gets too big ...

Where's your PFD?
And why aren't you wearing a wading belt with those waders?

Got down and made my "Yakpod" the other day with a few changes to FFTW's design to fit my yak/camera.


First change was to use the rod holder instead of mast hole. FF is taking up the mast hole. The yakpod does get in the picture since it's not up front but it's minimal. I used a cut up pool noodle for the camera mount and also put an extension on the inboard side so I can rotate the yakpod around easily. All of the pvc I used was spare parts sitting around so that's why all the connectors are all T's. :P

I also did the bungee through it all so it folds and assembles quickly. Really great design FTW!!

Are you sure you didn't use all those tees to give you more variation in exposure distances?   :)

I just loved the video.

Going to make one of these as soon as I can get the materials.
