I thought I would post this to remind everyone who is diving with their Go Pro, and who has not thought of the following to be sure to at least take some easy steps to protect their investment.
One of the first things you should do is write your name and phone number on the bottom of the camera. You will have to get a silver sharpie for that. There are many popular dive spots where plenty of honest people go to them. Chances are that if they find it they will see your info and do the right thing and call you.
Second is more of a security measure but is also important. You Should always have some type of tether or leash on your valuable gear, especially your camera. I learned this the hard way by losing a camera pole, Go Pro camera, and one archon11 on one very expensive dive. I did not have the pole leashed to me and was only relying on the wrist lanyard. I needed to use both hands so I clipped the wrist lanyard to my D ring and that is when I believed I lost the pole. The best thing would have been to have this pole on a leash the whole time.
Hopefully some of you already do something similar to this and if not I hope this alerted some of you to do it.
Better to be safe than sorry!!!
