Yesterday, I went out in the crazy wind storm on the Jet Ski hoping to make an awesome video for you guys. Unfortunately, after shooting all the footage I ended up losing the camera in the river on the way back to the dock.

(GoPro Black Camera lost on Nov 1st, 2013 somewhere in front of Bonnie Castle Resort and Marina in Alexandria Bay, NY)

I highly doubt this GoPro Black Camera will ever be found, but here goes nothing.. just putting this out there in case some diver finds it someday.. It's in it's waterproof case with extended door and has a suction cup mount attached. It has a 64gb MicroSD in it..  I figure the more people who know I lost it the better the chances of seeing it again someday. I believe the spot on the map is pretty darn close where it fell off. It was very rough out there. A big wave came over the front of the ski and washed the camera off the front. The wave hit me so hard it was everything I could do just to hold on.. I was a little stunned too for a moment as I got hit hard. I usually have it tethered, but obviously not this time.

More info. I did a sinking test here with another gopro camera and suction cup mount and it would have defintely sank fairy quickly though most likely still moved with the current a bit before hitting bottom..
