Nice video! I have a vintage Bertram and want to do the same thing but haven't worked up the courage yet. How easy did you find landing the drone back on the boat? Did you go out of gear or keep moving slowly for landing? I'm thinking it may be much easier flying back to the stern for a landing versus the bow.
I slowed the boat and brought it into the transom. It is important to turn off the collision sensor, which I didn't do, or you have to fly it into the boat backwards. I grabbed it (not hard to do) and turned it over quickly to kill the motors. I have now done this about a dozen times without issue. I think if I took the table out of the rear sitting area, I could land it on the deck even while moving slowly.
