First boat: Three dads who have been playing safely on the water with the family all day drop the kids w/ the wives and decide to finish out the day whooping haulovers @ss. 👍
This restores my faith in Florida sailors! The speedster crew respect the sea, want to have fun, and know it could go wrong. With a PFD in your water temperature you float long enough for rescue, AND people can see you. As a sometimes scuba boat captain, spotting a human head in a rough sea with sun glint isn't always possible - spotting a bright fluorescent object usually is. Now we just need to educate the rest of the fleet...
they are a fun boat, they came in 155, 215, 255 motors and may even have some 255+ motors now. They are quick and basically a floating hot tub, they can take on a lot of water and pump in out as seen on the side with the bilge. Crew was prepared for sure. They are made to be a 4 seater jet ski.
@@hectorheck1353 its hard to sink but im sure its possible :) ... its also a very wet ride since the front dips down ... they did it to increase driver visiblity to the front but its hell with any sort of wave. Thats why the guy kept the throttle up... the took a few serious hits for sure. We have the 215hp model and you need to keep things strapped down if water is rough (coolers, bags etc) anything on the outside. But if you treat it like a jet ski its a lot of fun and is a good ride to tow with almost any vehicle.
Was wondering if we would ever see a "sweep" in the series. Loved seeing the boats sweep Haulover, bet it will come back with a vengeance in the next series though.
These things are NUTS, they drive exactly like a giant jet ski, I had one for a while. You could just jam t he wheel over at 50 and they'll just take it
LIFEJACKETS! Well mentioned, and proof that these things do not spoil your fun!! Great comment in this vid, well done. Proof of Boats vs Haulover's quality.
What an advertisement for Sea-Doo, how damn well-built is that thing!? Unreal it can take those 5/10 feet of air and not crack like an egg. Well done Sea-Doo
Watching those guys in the Sea Doo...........that's an excellent way to destroy your back........and I'm not even kidding. That thing must have some crazy plush seats. Makes my back hurt just to watch those incredible slams.
Nice to see life jackets actually. Water is one place I don’t mess around. I’ve lost young family members to drowning through unexpected circumstances they had no control over.
That SeaDoo Speedster confirms my suspicions that the typical Australian "tinnie" would likely fare pretty well at Haulover. They're as basic as you can get, usually made of tin (hence the name) and are as light as all hell, I once saw one that someone had thrown the guts from a jetski in it and I really wanna see that take on Haulover.
Captain in the speedster has some experience. Most after plopping down like that would just sit and recovery but he hammered down as soon as they hit. Gotta in those waters.
Two boats with people wearing life jackets in Miami what the hell is happening. Good to see that some people actually use their brains and respect the sea
It’s interesting that a lot of bigger more expensive and you’d think more comfortable boats get a shellacking while for the speedster it just makes it fun
It was so rough out that only the best of the best went out. You can tell because they all knew to wear their PFD. That and you probably edited all the dumb one for us. Kudos to all the captains.
First boat was epic, what's interesting is seeing a foil board with a rider on the rib boat. Were they planning on towing the rider with such large waves???
