Scariest boat I’ve ever been was a 19ft action at 101 mph. My brother ended up selling it cause no one would ride a second time. Including my self lol. I had a 17ft with a 200 when I was 16 and it would pass 70mph at 3/4 throttle. But I was too scared of chine walk so I sold it after taking out 3 times
One thing about those Hydrosream boats they always seem so unstable when you are hooked up!!?? Its something you have to get used to and learn how to control. Not just anyone can get in one of these boats and throttle up and start trimming the boat without knowing what they're doing or they will wash it out (or worse) every time. They're awesome once you learn how but are definitely a different animal. Love it!!
Those boats would be a lot faster with a spooned and polished 3 blade prop. They definitely don’t need any more holeshot and if use a 3 blade you won’t get as much chine walking.
The reason we run the 4 blade is not for top end speed. is the amazing cruise speed we get.. we like to run far so that’s the reason.. at 4K rpm we run 65+ mph.. with a 3 blade we will never see that
Another great video!!!👍-Would love you to tell which bridges, roads, places etc, you pass on you way. Then I don’t have to look it up on a map each time. (Dixie highway, Gilbert’s…) Keep up the good work.😃
I haven’t drive. Many different types of boats but damn it looks like you are fighting the hell out of that thing nonstop. Looks like a rush though for sure. I know it’s a lot more unsettling when you are in that co-captain seat..😮
U make me want to sell my house in Toronto, drive me motorhome down to Florida and hang with u guys. WOW!!! I’m SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO jealous. AWESOME video guys. It’s so great to see y’all having a great time. 👍👍👍👍👍
I can ride a Uni-Cycle , have done since l was 17 yrs old . And it looks like driving Boats these would be very similar . Like the 1st day or 2 of learning 2 ride a Uni Cycle . A 19 ft Daytona outboard or a 21 ft Daytona twin rig would be my choice . My only choice 4 this trip . Totally not fun trying 2 keep it up on the plank .
You were, the smartest guy out there until you took off your PFD!!! Come on Captain lead by example, just saying... Great video, Love that Run.... Sea Ya
Damnit! I wanna come down and run with y'all bad! I'm in west central Florida. I love islandmorada sandbar but haven't had my action down there. How do I find out next time y'all are riding?
How big is the fuel tank? When I run Blackpoint to sandbar I use about 45 gallons on my 21 checkmate with a big Johnson v8 on the back I normally stop across from Gilbert’s each way to top off. It’s impressive if you didn’t get fuel
It blows my mind those guys aren’t wearing their life jackets driving these fast boats! At least you wear yours! The boat with decals still on motor looks way better!
I actually always wear my life jacket!!! But I had him as a passenger on my boat and I was planing on going solo. And I only had that 1 life jacket to wear when riding all the other life jacket are the regular ones and it’s under the bow.. so I wanted to make sure the passenger on my boat was safe!!!!
I’m about to buy an 1985 19 Action with a 250. Can you provide any details on how these guys are set up? Like prop, lower etc. Thanks if you can and keep the videos coming!
