I have done all three of the high adventures I'd say philmont was the hardest of all three then northernteer and lastly sea base
while there i did the coral reef sailing with the imfamous CAPTIAN RON
just like from the movie but much older not wearing an eye patch
his boat was the Sudden Impulse
i was the ASPL of my troop at the time and acting SPL of the outing the captian called me boss just like in the movie he was from the Pa Slatebelt very close to my home town so we could relate
@tmpdmkb All the footage for this video was 720p using a housed Sanyo Xacti HD1A. The new HD2 is supposed to have much better low light capability and would now be a better choice. Check on availability of a housing before buying a camera. Remember, frequent manual white balance adjustment is vital to decent underwater footage. The editing is equally important and my video editing is done using Final Cut Pro on Mac computers. Enjoy your trip!
Be sure to rate the video, especially since you like it ;-) Share the link with your friends, this video has been on YouTube for 7 months and we don't even have 1,000 views yet! Hope your group had a great time at Sea Base, what adventure did you participate in?
hey man i know galaradoguy personally and we r going to seabase in july and we r in troop 442 and he told me about this video. it looks really fun. we r sure to keep all of this in mind.
Our Sea Base adventure was the Scuba live-aboard adventure on the Conch Pearl. It was a great time but no kayaking was involved in our trip.
My family has kayaked around several the Keys a few years ago and our experience was great. Only problem we encountered was that we came back through the channel going against the flow of the tide; that was hard work. The folks at Sea Base should schedule you around the tides and 5.5 miles is a reasonably short trip. Hope you have a great adventure.
Going next summer cant wait

I was there for Spring Break 2008. One of the best Spring Breaks I've ever had in my lifetime. I would love to go back when I have the chance.
