Please join us at https://JetBoaters.net to watch his videos and learn about the new models and features in the 2017 lineup.

Since the title only says "8 EST" which I won't argue morning or night since @Bruce clarified the AM/PM in his first post. However I hope I'm interrupting things wrong but since most of the country is in EDT, then does that mean we actually don't get to see the new Yamaha's until 9 pm EDT (which is the same as 8 PM EST)? I sure hope not.
 
That's the time for my usual "post-work run". Something tells me tonight will be a little faster than normal...

I have been caught by an Engineer! Lets call it 8PM in your time zone. Officially it is spelled out as "8:00 ET".
 
8 pm's been and gone here and still no vids, and I'm east of Ireland, so doesn't that make my time Eastern time ? :confused::D.
 
@Julian
No more posting from you until you can assure us that the videos are done.
 
That is funny as the last video (#5) is loading now....says 41 minutes to complete....I think I'm cutting it a little too close!!!!

It doesn't get much closer than that.

Thanks for all of your hard work on these. If you need help next year I would be happy to edit 1 video for you. I've got several hundred on youtube and I'm fairly well versed in my editing software (Corel VideoStudio Pro X8)
 
I've spent the last week learning Cyberlink Powerdirector 14.....pretty easy once you figure out the basics! Much better than what I used last year!

The only part I'm not happy with is the audio quality....I'll need to convince my wife that I need to purchase a wireless microphone with wind block. (and also make sure there is quiet on the set!)

If I my day job hadn't been so busy right now I wouldn't have been so up to the wire....that and boating is getting in the way of my hobby....posting about boating!!!! LOL

I may take you up on the editing next year...but you'll need to sign an NDA and meet me in Atlanta!!! :-)

That sounds great. I also have access to our local public access tv staton's cameras, tripods, and wireless and handheld microphones. Shoot me a private message when things slow down.
