Thinking of applying for gov't funding to buy 1 or 2 more ROVs plus make a youtube video series about retrieving dead fishing gear using ROVs.

For the proposal I'm thinking of including these line items:

* 2 ROVs ($8K total)
* boat rentals+fuel for using the ROVs (or cost of moorage+fuel for the sailboat home base I want to buy) over a period of 2 years (ballpark $4K/year)
* camera and audio gear ($4K)
* video editor services ($4K)
* aerial photographer/videographer ($2K)

$26K CDN sounds good, right? :) The range they're looking for is 5K-400K. Maybe I should research additional hardware purchases (related non-ROV gear) and factor in additional fuel costs.

Or go hog-wild and add a boat purchase for another $30K.

or you can go with me to Santa Barbera and the Nelson Institute to steal the Seaview & flying sub :)) -- nm - Peglegpete Feb 18, 13:19
