Finally, your treasured camera — for example the waterproof Canon PowerShot D10 shown here, can accompany you on every thrilling aquatic adventure.

The Kayacam allows you to mount any compact digital camera or mini-videocam such as the popular Kodak Playsport on its versatile head, extending the camera while keeping it firmly and securely mounted to your boat deck or moving vehicle.

No suction cups. No major alterations to your watercraft. And best of all, the Kayacam is a completely portable, waterproof monopod, detaching and re-attaching to a small eyelet on any deck surface, in seconds.

On boats under power or sail, canoes, sculls and dinghies, the Kayacam is recommended for mounting cameras of up to 9 ounces (257 g).

On kayaks or surfaces routinely subject to rocking, jarring impact or sudden pitching, the Kayacam requires secure attachment to a flat surface, using compact digital cameras of up to 7 ounces (199 g) — similar in size and weight to a Canon Powershot D10 or a waterproof Kodak Playsport HD video camera, for example.

For rugged reliability, there's only one choice. RAM Mounts.

To produce the toughest, most versatile outdoor camera monopod available, we've partnered with RAM Mounting Systems Inc., the premiere manufacturer of mounts deployed for use in harsh outdoor environments and challenging applications.

The Kayacam sports a marine-grade, powder-coated aluminum ball with an ISO-compliant 1/4"-20 camera screw, a double-socket arm with an easy-tighten handle, and a wedge-mounted ball that can be inserted or removed from the mast. We've even added an EPDM rubber bushing to protect your camera.

Working as an assembly of integrated components, RAM Mount's ball-and-socket technology offers more positioning flexibility and ease of use than any competitive camera mount available.

Toss the clunky mounts, unwieldy poles and suction cups overboard.

You should never find yourself offshore with a camera mount that could easily break or detach on impact. Reliable operation of your portable accessories must be a critical consideration.

The Kayacam stands alone — stable and strong, yet flexible enough to ride the pitch and roll of a boat in rough seas — it's even capable of recovering from a sudden, jarring impact.

Once the Kayacam's steel clip is attached to your vessel, it will remain attached even when its shock cord is loosened, further protecting your valuable equipment from accidental loss.

The Kayacam is buoyant, so if you're using it in combination with an unsinkable waterproof camera (as most are), you won't have to be concerned if the mount and camera accidentally fall overboard.

The Kayacam was designed to address risks and challenges associated with every other portable and semi-permanent camera mount, monopod and tripod available.

Issues inherent in the design of competitive camera mounts include:

• the inability of suction cups to adhere to rough, scratched or compromised surfaces
• poorly engineered mounting brackets requiring multiple drill holes and points of attachment
• the potential for interference or injury on rigid brackets and support structures
• the deterioration of critical components such as suction cups, PVC tubing and seals with prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light in sunlight
• the rapid oxidation and corrosion of components when exposed to salt in seawater and brackish water

The Kayacam rises to these challenges, and many more.

How does the Kayacam attach to my deck?   (view demo & video)

Our patent-pending fastening system clips beneath the Kayacam's base to an existing eyelet or any deck loop, pad eye, topside drain plug or other fixed point of attachment.

Once clipped, the Kayacam's shock cord is pulled taut and cinched.

To maintain stability, the Kayacam requires attachment to a flat surface. It is not designed for curved or peaked surfaces.

If you would like to install an eyelet on your boat deck, we offer a marine-grade Eyebolt Kit with do-it-yourself instructions.

A foam cushion under the Kayacam's protects the surface from scratches and absorbs the shock of unnecessary impacts.
