Every Boat Needs an Aqua-Vu
Published: Saturday, November 6, 2021
Have you ever dropped your sunglasses over the side of the boat? Forgot to pull up the anchor and now the line is caught in the prop? Being on the water can present a fair amount of problems and tricky situations that can be resolved with a real-time view of what is happening below the surface. That is where an Aqua-Vu can help.
Aqua-Vu developed the first underwater viewing system in 1997 for anglers so they could have a live feed of fish in their natural habitat. Today, Aqua-Vu cameras are used for everything from ice fishing in Minnesota to bass fishing on the Great Lakes to finding gold in Alaska's Bering Sea. Many boaters find that having an Aqua-Vu system on board helps them troubleshoot situations that would normally be resolved with costly services, such as hiring a diver or pulling the boat out of the water for a marine inspection.
Aqua-Vu has a number of systems for just about any underwater viewing need. One of the most popular models for boaters is the Micro Revolution 5.0 Pro, which has a built-in DVR so you can review and share your underwater footage. An Aqua-Vu underwater camera isn’t just for solving problems, it can be a great tool for entertaining kids and adults as well. Consider adding an Aqua-Vu Underwater Camera to your vessel this season to amp up the fun and keep your boat in the water!
