Drones suitable for the salt water environment

[MakoMatt]

Looking to buy a drone for use on the boat. Not looking to break the bank on this first purchase for one. Would want something that has good filming capability, battery life, as well as something that would float, and survive a possible crash in the water.

Anyone here having any experience and recommendations on these things?

More of a recommendation from my IT guy who has multiple drones, races them, and does freelance work making commercials etc.


My recommendation would be one of the following:

Autel Evo Lite - $1500

• Full Cinematic and AI capable video at 6K
• Fully autonomous
• 40 Minute fly time
• Industrial Quality Remote

Drones EVO Lite Plus | Buy in Autel Robotics Official Store



SwellPro Drones – $1200 - $2000+

• Waterproof
• Most are capable of Automatic Cinematic Flight
• Designed more for fishing
• Most have to be upgraded from base price for better camera
• Good Remote

All SwellPro Drones

Thanks, I think that is more than what I want to spend on an entry level beginner drone. I have been doing some online research but a little gunshy on pulling the trigger on one without some real user advice, hopefully people in the salt water fishing community.
