It was about $135 at THE SPORTSMAN'S GUIDE. They have a website.
I can't say much now except that it works well in the living room!

That's a really good price (
http://www.sportsmansguide.com/cb/cb.asp?a=167545 ) and, except for the monitor, looks identical to what appears to be the "Mini Atlantis" cam (cheapest I could find was $200,
http://www.boatersworld.com/webapp/w...ductId=8441695) above. Medium on my list of fun stuff to build was a "Lunker Cam" (google to find it) since I already have a small B&W 12v monitor. Alas finding the camera part (for <$50) at some place I'd care to give my CC # to, was difficult. I wonder if any sells just the underwater camera part separate from the battery, cable and monitor ? Besides a rock crawling collision avoidance system you could do like some crafty students did (I lost the URL) and make a home built ROV (PVC pipe, camera, bilge pumps for thrusters). Then "we" could "swim around" the Lady of the Lake and check for rock bass and leave Grant alone.
