RearView Cameras
I thought I would pass this along as I use these myself.
As we know a majority of the cameras out are fairly pricey $200 for starters. Unless you are purchasing infra-red - night vision ones, I personally do not find them too advantageous for the casual day sailor. Not everyone can afford the new displays such as Raymarine's E / G series that allow for video inputs.
This is a viable solution. The VR3 camera comes in both wired and wireless forms. Note that the wireless version is susceptible to interference (my experience). While designed for license plates - it can be adapted with some creativity to mount on a stern pole or likes. Maybe you want to view the interior from the cockpit as you have youngin's on board, or do not want to miss the party down below - handy there to. Target sells them for $99.
Easy to install - fair picture quality, and not effected by grime and water...
Just thought I would throw that out there for those looking for some kind of remote monitoring and or rear view capabilities.
