CAPSIZING BOATS 101 AT HAULOVER INLET | BOAT ZONE 

how would you guys avoid what happened to the boat at 5:20? would it be safe to go out at 45 degree angle instead of head on or that's even worst?

My left ear really enjoyed listening to this video. thx

I like it when you call out the boats and their horse power. Thanks

The expensive boats are nice to see but I get a lot of pleasure seeing those average to small boats piloted so well through there.

7:57 , Just a beauty boat!

Love this channel. No loud "music", just action.

We are Dream about it in Germany❗️💯

6:49 nicely done, bow up, matched wave speed and stayed on the back side.

Wow, it’s SMOOTH today!

3:39 That Monterrey looks front heavy!

Right boat... right experience...no problem..

I want that boat big bang my goodness that was a beautiful vessel

Thanks for filming

Love the boat descriptions with top speed 👍👍

Really thought that pursuit was going over. Looks great in slow mo 👌

Unbelievable to see the differences between various boat hulls

I really enjoy when the manufacturer is identified. Thank you so much. I am surprised there are not more Grady Whites. They are very popular further North in Carolina and Va. thanks again for a great job.

5:35 A real captain!! 😂😂🤮

That was a close call👀

These waves are tight, sharp and stacked up, from the current/tide running out meeting the ocean waves/swell coming in... Up on the great lakes, ALL our waves are like that. Lol regular ocean waves can be big wide flat MFs till they get reeeaaally big. Great lakes waves around the 6 foot mark would be dangerous for a number of the boats in this video the way they're being driven. Lol. I'd imagine if you saw some guys from northern Lake Michigan/Lake Superior/Lake Ontario coming through this inlet you'd see the waves instinctively handled way better. It's nothing personal, it's just that the vast majority of guys who spend most of their time on the ocean are used to the big rollers. Not the tall, steep, very closely spaced slammers like you get right here. Good friend of mine who used to fish out of Massachusetts in 40 foot seas in a 65 foot longliner, would get scared shitless when we'd go out in 14 footers in a 90 foot steel hulled carferry way up at the northern end of Lake Michigan. He used to always say "These lakes are Fucked, the waves suck ass, it's like steaming straight into the teeth on a saw blade."

Boat is gonna have stress fractures all over the haul 😂

That first dusky handled well for its size

5:35 I'd love to see this guy at the marina pulling the boat out. It has to be a comedy

Great vid as always. Looks to me like the boat needed to be straight on to the waves. Also, it looks like he wasn't trimmed right; too much weight to port. That and the angle he took the wave (damn, totally out of the water!) almost caused him to go over to port.

That poor pursuit took some beating!

ur supposed to catch a crest and try and plane it over as best you can (im in shit like that all the time in a 23ft grady). Not having a huge load of people helps, speed helps, and timing the wave at the crest is important 12-15 knots minimum for rough stuff like that. They just clearly just never been in rough seas or a boat, which is why research is important and watching fellow boaters to judge the seas. But the reason of the boat almost sinking was not enough power and too much weight in the back making planing harder and way more vertical on single outboards. They will not plain with too much weight on the back once they did get it leveled tho it handled like it was somewhat supposed to. They had no reason being in that crap with that many people for a booze cruz, some boat owners are just stupid and don't know common courtesy, actually lots.(boat drives by going 40mph 30ft from ur anchor line) typical weekend boaters.

Looks like the 22-24 ft range takes the worst beating!

Marlin 359 SF baby!!

In those conditions guy at 5:20 should have been hyper vigilant and noticed the wave coming at a diagonal on him. He could have steered into it w less speed would have been less dramatic. By yourself is one thing but w passengers your the captain big responsibility. Craft wasn’t the most seaworthy I’ve seen either! Great vid! Ty

Thank you for great video. H.N.Y I experienced some scary wave way big for my boat, I do respect ocean ! Till then keep smiling with lol politely & safely thumbs up

You should make a video just showing girls flashing you on the way back in or out

Pursuit at 6:10.Reminds me of the old Bertram ads...and the old axiom"The vessel usually fares better than the skipper"

Can u please give some information on some of the smaller boats? I love ur vids.

My left ear really enjoyed this video

Gentlemen gentlemen you know that boats overloaded . What you care you ain't going out there !! I have watched that Pursuit launch itself off that wave many many times . And for the life of me I can't figure how she righted / corrected herself . It's painfully obvious to me the skipper had little or nothing in that vessels correcting itself . The only thing that saved her I believe is how she hit the second wave that actually righted her . Also it is obvious to me IMHO a lesser boat would not have been able to experience that . I have looked below deck of Pursuits and their sister Tiaras and I was very impressed with what I saw . Please keep the videos coming .

Need a video of all the people that run aground on the other side of that bridge...

Excelente video.

When I lived and boated in south Florida, I used to wonder how fifty people didn't get killed on boats every weekend.

In this fashion parade of fancy boats and their owner/passengers, I am amazed that virtually no-one sees the benefit of a life vest. The sea takes no prisoners.

5.30 HAHA, great captain! Gives throttle on the way up!! HAHAHA holy shit poor passengers

If your boat is overloaded and underpowered, stay out of the soup!

I’m no boater. But it seems to me some of these boats belong on lakes not the open sea. And some of these hulls I think are a poor design for this type of setting. You boaters what do you think?

Trim the motors to keep the bow high, and stay out of the throttle on the wave crests. That boat really took a pounding.

It was smooth sailing at the Haulover on this video. The only ones having a hard time were the people that had no idea how to trim a boat.

When it doubt... throttle out!!

1:30 Bow riding has been illegal for good reason. In this inlet, the owner/operator should recognize this danger in these specific sea conditions. Irresponsible.

0:34 Someone donated a shirt to the ocean

Wouldn't know where to begin piloting thru that

Nice

"Look at me, I'm just way too cool to wear a life jacket"

"Hold my jagar and monster, I got this bro"

Its amazing the numebr of people that aren't following the Navigation rules, specifically Rule 7(b). If your boat has RADAR you must use it. About 1/10 boats seem to be running it if they have it. Heck I always run it even on inland lakes.

Must be the center console capital of the world

Amazing to see boats operating in these conditions with out a single person wearing a pfd.

that was a great save from that boat. How many boats have flipped in that inlet?

Throttle Management 101

It was close to a flip, but luck went his way. A little more throttle could have pushed it past the balance point. I think the "captain" was having some fun with his passengers and just over-did it a bit. I have also seen boats lose a transom slamming flat onto a wave on landing like that.

Very nice video😎👍👍 I thought the one boat was a goner someone needs boating lessons

.38 someone lost a bag...it went over the left side of the boat

Some dodgy encounters! You can really hear that 2 stroke Evinrude over the 4 stroke Yammy’s and Mercs

5:33 the money shot lol

I was wondering how come they don't have the 5mph rule wile in the inlet?.

That should be a no wake zone. Crazy on how fast they go in a tight narrow area

There are inlets on the Great Lakes that are bad ass too with hi winds.

Why do i keep watching these WTF

They're going to need to swab the poop deck on that Pursuit boat. Pretty sure everyone in that boat probably shit their shorts when it started going over sideways. LOL

Interesting how absolutely no one wears a life jacket when crossing. How often do accidents happen?

Kids with no life jackets =silly new age parents sad

Ill never forget the time we almost flipped a 15 foot Boston Whaler! We were on a weekend trip with my Uncle. He had a 57 foot yacht and towed the 15 ft Boston Whaler as his dingy. My friend asked his dad if we could take the Boston Whaler out? He said yes so we went out and played a little bit then my friend said hold an and watch this. He hit a large wave we were having fun until. We hit a wave and the boat was straight up and down. I was going to move to the front. I quickly realized that was nt going to happen i went to stand up and my feet were planted on the back of the seat!

Hello pep boys, i would like to order a box of vertebrae.

It looks like the I/Os are a lot more swamped then the Outboards

Wow, that could’ve ended much worse. Lucky for them Pursuit makes a tough boat.

Dude. Does ANYONE ever really capsize here? This would actually be cool if there was some fiberglass carnage...

Everybody insists on riding in the bow

Aren't those kids suppose to be wearing a PFD while the boat is underway?

LOVE the Boston Whaler 420 Outrage at 7:40

So I was curious what the last one was, and googled it. Found it for sale “only in freshwater”. There something you want to tell us about the ocean down there near Florida? :D

I didn't see a single boat "capsize."

Some of those boats look a little small for waves like that

Not scared

@7:57 That Big Bang is amazing

Where's the capsizing boats?

How small do boats get that go through here/on the ocean? What is the least that is preferable? 20FT?

Ah, the fabled credit card captain at his finest....

Are these multi engined boats just day boats ? Where are they going ? What are they doing it would be good if you did a video on one ??? Obviously I can see the fishing ones but what do the others do ?

0:44 Andros Tarpon Bay I think?

Wait what? No PFD'S? smart!

amazing how you see some Cruz over the waves easily and some just beat the heck out of there boats because they cant drive worth a crap

I have very little boating experience (my high school buddy had a little 14 foot runabout and I’ve rented a few pontoons on a lake). I do however have a decent amount of common sense. Although I’ve never been to Haulover Inlet, somehow it just doesn’t seem like a good place for boats less than 20-24 feet. Despite the captains and passengers whooping and waving with few if any wearing a life jackets on, they can’t be having a great time getting almost thrown out of the boat. 99% of these are probably locals. They haven’t heard about the infamous Haulover Inlet?? Come on people, make a 180 and head back to the dock before you kill some of your passengers!!

I am in my boat watching the video imagining that I am in the water and not being trapped in my house by the quarantine🥺

I don’t think the one who posted this video knows what “CAPSIZED” means. 😐

are most of the problems there at high tide or when the tides are chsnging???

I can't believe the reckless speed that these vessels are going so close to shore. I hope the coasties zing a couple of these yahoos. Completely ridiculous.

I’ll Take the Big Bang Boats an absolute tank

amazing how many boaters do not know know how to slip waves and trim a boat... my gawd...

1:35 that is exactly where you don’t want your kid riding in your boat, especially without a life jacket on! But it wouldn’t really matter with those big Mercury’s coming at you!

Sad how many ppl own boats and have no clue how to run them the right way..

1:40 if your driving a boat you should NEVER let someone hang there legs over the edge of it like that

I heard you say se Rajo

Some people want to take lake boats into the ocean not a good idea
