Introducing a fantastic new membership offer...
The RYA is delighted to introduce a fantastic new membership offer from membership partners Garmin. RYA members can now take advantage of a special member’s only discount of 30% on Garmin VIRB action cameras.
These compact, rugged and water-resistant cameras come with optional dive case for those underwater and heavy weather moments, meaning boaters are able to capture high quality still photos and video, no matter where you are or what you’re doing.
HD, GPS, WiFi and much more
The VIRB, retailing at £269.99 is available to RYA members at just £188.99 and the VIRB Elite, retailing at £349.99 is available to RYA members at just £244.99. Both feature High Definition (1080p HD) quality with the top of the range VIRB Elite also providing GPS data, accelerometer, altimeter and WiFi, enabling connectivity to other products, such as Garmin’s heart rate monitors.
The lightweight VIRB action cameras can be used in your hand, mounted on your boat or mast, or attached as a headcam, and are capable of producing the ultimate action shot every time.
25 years of developing technology
“We’re delighted to be offering RYA members special discounted prices on our Garmin VIRB action cameras”, commented Garmin Marketing Executive – Marine & Wellness, Chrissy Winchcombe.
“This year sees Garmin celebrating its 25th year developing technology that makes boating fun and safe and the VIRB range of lightweight cameras come with a waterproof housing and are currently being used by the British Sailing Team as part of their training program.
“They can be mounted up the mast to capture footage, or attached to your sailing gear to capture all the action. The VIRB Elite will even overlay GPS data such as speed and direction showing just how fast you were going. Easy to set up, and quick and simple to download to create films or eye catching images from your time on and in the water, the VIRB cameras are now becoming an essential part of every boater’s kit bag.”
With extended battery life, Garmin’s action cameras can record over three hours of HD video on one charge and the many exciting features and functions available through the VIRB, and the WiFi enabled VIRB Elite, can be easily seen and accessed on the 1.4 inch colour display, making the cameras exceptionally easy to use. A VIRB app also enables Smartphone users to control the video recording and camera set up from their phone.
Third of members interested in Garmin offers
“We have successfully partnered with Garmin over the last year offering our member’s discounts on the Garmin Quantix watch and in our recent RYA Membership Survey 2014, 32% of members who responded indicated they would consider using a membership reward from Garmin, so we wanted to refresh the offer to our members and introduce a new and exciting product. The VIRB and VIRB Elite action cameras perfectly fit the bill”, commented Conor Swift, RYA Membership Development Manager.
