Bangkok Thailand Place should to visiting: Speedboats As Well As Helicam Aerial Photography

Happy Birthday to me! Last Th (4th March) was the big day. I tend non to celebrate the passing years, but this twelvemonth enjoyed a nifty solar daytime out on the H2O playing amongst speedboats, cameras as well as a helicopter.... Background: I am director at Sunrise Divers, based at Karon Beach inward Phuket. The possessor bought a real prissy speedboat lastly twelvemonth as well as we're going to offering the boat for mortal charters - non diving, but cruising, sightseeing, getting out to offshore islands, off the beaten rail a bit. The boat is called Sky Water, it's a Sea Ray 26 human foot sports boat, top class, real nice.. non your average Thai speedboat. It's available for charter for upwardly to four people.. tin squelch inward a duet more, but it's non a huge boat. The waters simply about Phuket are dotted amongst pocket-sized islands. Some are real pop similar Phi Phi or Koh Khai. Other islands are less good known. The Sky Water tin accept y'all wherever y'all want. Damn, I desire 1 too!

Update 2014 - Sky Water (this boat on this page) was sold, sorry! No longer doing trips :(

On Thursday, nosotros had arranged a solar daytime at Koh Rang Yai, a pocket-sized as well as real prissy isle simply off the due east coast of Phuket. The Sky Water is based at the Ao Po Marina inward the northeast of Phuket.. the photograph below shows Gilbert (owner) as well as Sky Water at the marina...

It was simply xv minutes cruise to arrive at Koh Rang Yai. The solar daytime was all well-nigh photos. We met the guys from Helicam at Ao Po. Helicam specialises inward taking aerial photos amd videos. They produce boats, hotels, mortal houses as well as much to a greater extent than as well as larn some amazing photos - their website is www.helicam.asia. It happens that I know Phil, 1 of the owners, equally our kids become to the same school. On Th Phil was joined yesteryear Khun Moo - Phil is the helicopter airplane pilot (remote control) as well as Moo the photographer.

Enough talk! I took some pics on the solar daytime from the shore as well as from the boat. Firstly - Koh Rang Yai is a gorgeous footling island...

We cruised inward to the beach as well as unloaded the Helicam gear... helicopter, remote controls, batteries, as well as other fancy electronic gear that was beyond my ken. Phil got the copter laid on the beach. It tin accept off as well as province pretty much anywhere. Phil preferred to purpose the beach, but after nosotros managed it from the dorsum of the speedboat :)

The helicopter can't remain upwardly for likewise long, well-nigh xv minutes is the limit on a laid of batteries. We planned ii runs - the kickoff getting aerial shots of the boat as well as the 2nd amongst wakeboarding. I stayed on shore for the kickoff run, equally nosotros didn't desire likewise many people cluttering the boat. I induce got a 300mm zoom on the photographic tv set camera then got a few skillful pictures of Sky Water as well as the chase helicopter...

You mightiness detect the hills as well as shoreline behind the boat... the East coast of Phuket is real unlike to the developed beaches on the West coast. You tin larn to Koh Rang Yai easily yesteryear longtail boat from Laem Hin.. or yesteryear chartering the Sky Water :) After the kickoff run, Phil landed the helicopter at the beach - the chapeau inward the foreground is Phil...

For the 2nd photograph session, Gilbert wanted to endeavour something new... photos of him wakeboarding taken from the helicopter. This was novel for the Helicam squad too! I'll postal service some of the lastly photos that they got inward a duet of days... I was on the boat, Gilbert inward the H2O as well as Phil somewhat apprehensively launching the helicopter from the dorsum of the speedboat - non much room to manoeuvre...

The boat captain upped the revs, Phil piloted the helicopter behind Gilbert on his wakeboard as well as nosotros flew yesteryear the beach a duet of times. Now, Gilbert's non a wakeboard champ, but enjoys a fighting of a become - anyone chartering the Sky Water or a similar boat tin also produce some watersports - there's enough of serenity H2O on the East coast of Phuket, ideal for a quick wakeboarding session. I took some photos from the boat... waiting for some pics from Helicam.. as well as (I induce got seen some previews) they are good. Great companionship they are, Helicam - if y'all desire aerial photos, cheque their website: www.helicam.asia.

After the photograph session nosotros threw the anchor, swam ashore as well as had a duet (ahem, I had to a greater extent than than a couple) of beers as well as some nutrient at the eating theatre at Koh Rang Yai - nutrient is tasty, also non inexpensive at all! Well, occasionally Paradise is worth it - y'all tin remain at Koh Rang Yai inward unproblematic bungalows for K Baht per night. After the drinks nosotros carried the Helicam gear dorsum to the boat as well as sped dorsum to Ao Po inward the afternoon sun. In this weather, a solar daytime on the H2O is ever a pleasure. And yes I got a fighting likewise much sun, but since I function inward the share half-dozen days a week, likewise much Sun is a luxury!

Here's a few of the nifty shots from the Helicam helicopter :
