Propellers

RGV1, or Running Gear Video 1, the most recent product available from Yacht Cam International, and is set to take the marine and nautical industry by storm, as the RGVI is the very first camera that allows the captain and crew of seaworthy vessels to constantly monitor the movements which occur below the waterline while the vessel is in motion. However, not only can the RGV1 be used as a means to monitor propellers and stabilizers, but this state-of-the-art underwater camera allows the vessel's captain to quickly identify any problem which occurs below the waterline and immediately carry out corrective action before any damage is caused. This preventative damage is not only a cost-saving mechanism, but by monitoring propellers and the risk of running aground, the captain is able to assure the safety of both crew and passengers. .

Yacht Cam International is well-known for their state-of-the-art, high grade underwater and video cameras and accessories that include underwater lights, which have been specifically designed and adapted to endure the harsh weather and environmental conditions that are synonymous with ocean life. Furthermore, since the RGV1 is located on the underside of the ship's hull and may be linked to the vessel's CCTV system, the captain will be able to view both propellers and stabilizers of the vessel and this has been proven to greatly reduce the threat of running aground. The images which are projected via the CCTV systems permit the captain and crew to gain real time surveillance of the propellers, which has proven useful during routine propeller maintenance. However, maritime studies demonstrate that the majority of running gear damage happens when the captain is oblivious to the fact that an underwater problem exists and the vessel continues to run, and this problem has now been resolved with the technologically advanced RGV1, as the captain has the ability to clearly view all underwater images, including images of the propellers at work at the surrounding area in which the vessel is traveling.

In addition to serving as a monitor for viewingpropellers and stabilizers, the RGV1 can be used to view the surrounding marine life in never-seen before footage. The RGV1, as with all of Yacht Cam International's video cameras, are totally compatible with all CCTV systems and clear images of the surroundings can be streamed to multiple monitors that can be strategically placed within the vessel to obtain optimal viewing choices. In addition, the screen can be split into four viewing sectors, thus, affording the captain or crew the opportunity to viewpropellers, while simultaneously viewing the natural beauty that surrounds the vessel. A number of vessels have successfully utilized the RGV1 for vessel security, fishing expeditions, and marine studies, in addition to providing an unobstructed view of the
