They need to add a soundtrack, with Ride of the Valkyries as the music.
 
The Deck O wanted to carry on with the morning training session planned: rig for light jackstay, but the Buffer prevailed. ;)
 
A rollercoaster you Navy guys get paid to ride!

I wonder if they used a whole roll of guntape to hold that camera down, took some wicked hits.

Funny that had me scratching my head as well.  Its on the stbd bridge wing and seems to be attached to the teak rail some how. 
 
Is HMCS Charlottetown the lead vessel of a new class of semisubmarine to replace the Victoria Class?

Not too rough... could not have been too good for the camera's well being though.  Sigh, I wish I was a sea.  :( 

Here is a new RCN ad to make all you landlubbers jealous.  Your Power to Sea (2012 version)  And my girl, Beautiful Day

Great videos JJT!  Any insight on how they would attach that camera to the bridge wing in the first vid ?  You being an HT and all I figured you might be able to shed come light.

Here's footage from a much smaller ship about a 1000 miles from land. Coastal defense vessel indeed!

If that was a Photo Tech's camera he/she might have had a mount that they could easily adapt with a jig of sorts.  I'll find out and get back to you.

Maybe they just lashed the photo tech to the rail. >:D

I was thinking a Subbie maybe.  They're a dime a dozen, but a good photo tech on the other hand...

Why did you have to post those videos? Now I wish I was at sea, sob! sob! sob! (sorry, for some reason, the crying emoticon is not working from this computer)

Do you miss those days of sitting on an open bridge, with a wind screen that came up as high as your belly button, watching the bow plow into a big wave to catch it right in your face?  ;)
Or perhaps walking up the ladder with your supper from the galley on the Stbd breezeway only to have some similar wave wash your food off your plate.  :crybaby:
