Put rainx on the outside of the mount (It's rare to get water on it when it high up, but you won't regret it when you do)

Invest the few extra $$ and put the fog inserts in.

I shoot in r4 for the best vertical coverage. Especially when I surf.

Turn on "1 Click record feature"

Buy the "Grab bag" of mounts. It makes things a little more fun when you can put it in a bunch of different place.

Here's how I had mine on my Malibu.

Are you referring to the outside of the camera housing in front of where the lens is or are you referring to the entire camera housing and mount?

I saw a video that stated that the older models are the ones that had the fog issues but it didn't state which models it considered to be 'older'. Are you using a Hero2? Have you had issues with fogging on yours?

This is one of the first things that I did. Just hold the button down and instantly start recording!!!

I'm pretty happy with my mounting location. I like and prefer the view from stern to bow slightly better than bow to stern or from the side

just tested my PVC GoPro mount today, worked great!

Just on the outside of the mount, right in front of the lens

Mine fogs when I surf, I had the Hero. I have had it fog when I would do underwater shots before I put the inserts in.

Yup, best firmware update ever

I move mine around so everything doesn't seem the same. I like bow to stern when cruising/fighting fish, stern to bow when bringing the fish to the boat/talking to people on the water and launching/landing
