Surround View Camera

[Bouba]

I once hired a car with surround view camera, it consists of four wide angle with software that stitches the images together. It’s like having a drone hovering above your car when you park. I found it really useful and started to think about boat application and came across this;

Anybody got an opinion?

Well if you had a big enough boat suppose but no, I won't be investing I'm out.

Dash, it’s not the size of your boat, it’s the size of your berth

I've had no complaints!

Not sure why you would need one on a boat less than say 100ft long. If you really feel the need to see all sides of your boat all the time whilst berthing (and I dont) you should probably get one of these http://www.yachtcontroller.com/

I've got a surround camera in my car and I dont use that either

My thoughts are that it’s one less task for my crew to have to guide me and even the possibility of short handed boating. But you’re right a remote control is another way to do it.
