WARNING: POINT PLEASANT CANAL SINKING AND STUFFINGS 2022 !! | HAULOVER INLET | WAVY BOATS 

The pontoons always make me lol 😂

Number One. One of these days, the bow will emerge from the water and the kids will be gone.

Morons taking their kids/dogs out and putting them in the front!! They should be arrested. Sickening.

@@Scopper81 yes, I agree. Number 1 was very scary, I am surprised none of the kids went in the water.

The lady trowing out the beer…no evidence

#5 for sure!

Too many boaters strike me as being idiots.

@@SuburbanDonnot idiots, they just don’t know. But it sure is easy to get over your head when you just don’t know.

​@@Mightiflierin some cases. But most of the time, they're just total frickin' idiots.

@@Mightiflier So...in other words they're idiots.

And then they load up the bow with all the people.

@@edrodrigues3333 Oh and just to add, make sure the outboard is tucked right in so when you stuff it, it really forces the bow into the water

This is NOT ocean boating The Canal runs between a river and a bay.

@@billholt716 which is coming from the Atlantic ocean. 🙄

@@billholt716 so have you never stuffed the bow out at sea?

Haha you talk like I do... hahaha

Pretty much sums up their stupidity, those are the dangerous boaters…..

😂😂

You were there?

See the woman pour her beer out?

Saw that. Even an average swimmer would have problems with those waves. I don't know what they were thinking.

​@@tr1bes...they weren't! 🤯

So much money, so little brains

I don't get that they would put their kids in that danger.

​@@cheeserobot_the_og well the point is they don't realize the danger.

He thought he had rented a U Boat

And no one thought to shift the weight? Some people think the ocean is like a bath

I think we can call them boat owners. They clearly have no idea but are willing to sink the boat and kill people.

Lol, 🤣 he's special alright. 🤣

theres a big differrence between a qualifed and experenced captain and a boat owner.its an insult to call any of these boat drivers owners captains

At least not in that environment

We call it a “ladle” 🥄

If he were to get his nose up on plane a bit and navigate through the waves, this may have been avoidable.🥴👍🙏🙏🙏

@@Poppa_Badger Agreed. Still seems like a glorified bathtub to me. Any water over that bow is going straight into the boat. I want a closed bow boat for seaworthiness.

ya, not only that, i don't understand why people will take a "lake type of boat" onto the ocean? if it were me, i would buy a boat with a better designed bow made for this type of environment if wanting to go into this type of environment or not go at all, right tool for the right job at hand.

I was thinking the same damn thing!

Can’t have the troopers seeing you drink while you’re tryina be rescued.

Even worse it’s let me empty my beer can before I get my butt off the bench and help save the kids who were drowning in the bow of the boat. Only one guy helped them. The rest of the adults just sat there looking stupid.

No one is drowning in a foot of water

@@walmars3curity said the person who drowned in an inch of water.

Getting rid of the evidence

Illegal not to wear life jackets in NZ for these size boats. But what is it with the basics of weight distribution?

Lifejackets suck during nice weather - but the kids should always wear them when underway.

This comment only makes number five on the top 10 list.

Good Bildges.. preferably Two.. No Bow Rider lake Boats.. as they sink faster than a Cabin Cruiser full of Lead.. Look for boats with "Passive Buoyancy" Air pockets built into the Hull to Prevent full Submersion..

@@nickh5081 Death sucks, period.

They're too rich to get hurt by the water..

They are Americans. They approach this in the same foolish way they approach most things these days. Lacking adequate knowledge, skills and an over abundance of arrogance or regard for the loved ones they carry onboard their unseaworthy boat they know nothing about.

Entitled goofiness as per usual 😂

Maybe justice, they think all they stand above everything

@@alfsmith4936 Tongue in cheek, but this is literally the reason. "oh we go boating all the time, this boat's fine, we've sunk millions into buying and maintaining it, it'll be fine"

😂😂

If u think this is relaxing just wait till u see the boat ramp. It’s a whole different shit show over there

A+ beer handling skills!

It would improve the buoyancy, at least!

a true professional would have knocked the rest of that shit back!

We have a cottage on Georgian Bay and it is always rough. We would never have an open beer in our boat!

Too many boats in a too small place leaving a horrible wake.

The boat was trying to be a submarine. Totally wrong hull for those conditions.

... even tho he didn't really "use" the available power. Or trim. Or brains.

@@pippin1ful wrong skipper probably never even took a safe boating course

There were several times during that event where even a reasonably competent person at the helm could have saved it. The people at the front (and probably everyone else aboard as well) thought everything was just fine even when it was obvious that they were done. He could have trimmed up, had everyone get to the back of the boat, and got on the power a bit and changed to a 45 degree angle in order to get to the calm water ahead and let the pumps do their job. Of course, he did none of those things and just decided to keep on keepin’ on!! Haha!!

​@@randaltotten9358 Not to mention a Salt Water Safe Boating Course ... cause, damn, it gets "real" real quick in salt water!!

Popeye, is that you?

@@buickinvicta288 I´ve seen Popeye in my travels, here and there, depicted in comics,, books, and in real life, he was a cool guy, I mean the real person on which the character was based! Thank you have a nice day!

@@gonnn777F 😘

@@buickinvicta288 I Love you Buick!!! :)

tell us your best story please!

100% seem to me like everyone has the engine tucked instead of slightly trimmed, especially for the low bow riders

No idea what that means.

Trim is definitely a foreign term to these folks.

Man !!! No shit !!!! Unreal aint it ?

@@theblackspotguild , he had the motor trimmed down, where the motor was trying to push the bus down. You trim it up, and it raises the bow. The "Captain" had probably never had a boat driving lesson in his life.

This man has the answer!!! It's a two part solution to keep this from happening! Moving all the weight from the front to the back is just as important in almost each of these situations. I don't understand why these people are in the front to begin with? That's the worst place to sit when there's even a moderate chop. My dad was a captain and was always reminding us to stay in the back of the boat when underway. Even when it's calm, you can hit a wake and send everyone flying. Next to the No Wake sign, there should be a Sit In The Back sign. 😄

​@@Jonathan.D exactly 😮

I LOVE the 1st boat, when they know they are in trouble the guy runs to the back to have the woman dump out the beer and then someone is using a little cup to bail the boat :)

@trvman1 They definitely had no clue and just panicked. That is the fault of the "Captain" of the vessel. He should have moved the people to the back to prevent more water from coming over the front. If the deck had scuppers, the deck could have drained out. The first thing I always install on my boats is scuppers. If you take water over the bow, you throttle up, and the water runs right out. I had a little 17' skiff that got filled to the gunnels when a larger boat swamped us. All I did was give it full throttle, and in less than a minute, it was empty.

@@Jonathan.D Not to mention that most bow riders, the end of the bow's slope down make a nice scoop.

I really hate to say it but there needs to be licenses for boating, especially here.. That might save 2% of these fools from themselves...

@frisk151 required in my state to drive one although it's never updated or checked. I don't even know where mine is.

@@MrBings714 Which State? I was that kid brought up on the water.. I didn't believe I should even need to go to "definsive driving" to get a Texas DL.. I had been shifter cart racing for years.. I "grandfathered" in on both boating and hunting requirements, but I could have passed them in my sleep.. My father had my brother and I custom reloading since we were pre-teens (oversight included), and Vietnam combat soldier standards on gun safety, boating safety, you name it.. I was anti license everything.. NOW at 50 yrs old, but well before by at least 1.5 decade, the idiots on the water, roads, and running around chasing their phones legit has me rethinking that stance in spades.. I'm hard core 2A, and a lot of my friends hate it, but buy a firearm for the first time, a gun into and safety course isn't too much to ask for.. Covid hit.. I was buying more Ammo at a national sporting goods store (Academy).. The guy in front of me bought one of the last guns.. He literally paid for it, after checks, and before he left, he asked, "How do I make it go bang?".. Jaw drop.. Ripped the guy at the counter and said, "he's more than likely to accidently kill anyone!! WHY did you sell him that???" "I had to... But, I didn't sell him bullets!!! LOL). Phones I think are some of the worst of this behavior.. Add alcohol and woah!!! I drink.. I don't drive jack sheot when I am driving sober thou.. Sorry for being long winded! I was just really glad to hear about your state, even if they don't require to be current.. If there is any training at all involved , especially for people who have no piloting / "captaining" (haha) experience.. That's better than a lot of states..

As a non boat owner, I too was shocked.

Hang on what? Are you suggesting you don’t need a license in the US to drive a boat? If that’s the case then no wonder🤦🏻‍♂️

I highly highly doubt if you’re making a wake that it would make a bit of difference going through there. The waves are already bigger than any boats wake. I think the thinking behind the “no wake zone” is because it’s a fairly narrow canal with lots of back and forth traffic so they don’t want ppl blasting through there too close to other boats. Either way this Canal is a perfect example of why a lot of ppl should be required to take a boaters safety course upon purchase of a boat because there is just too many morons and ppl that lack common sense out there.

These people that can't figure out riding in the bow in those conditions should not have a boat

Personally, and as an owner of a bow rider, I think the problem here is not so much the boat but the distribution of weight within the boat and the failure of the ‘captain’ to recognise and react to the dangerous situation he was about to put his passengers in. Correct speed, trim and weight distribution would have seen the boat go through there without too much issue in my opinion.

It has to do with weight as well for bow riders

@DeusVult1527 I agree that bow riders are not designed for those conditions. However, any competent skipper would have got that boat through there without sinking it and putting their passengers in danger, which was the comment I was making.

Not to mention friends who blindly trust the boat owners abilities.

As a local to see jobbie Nooner I ca confirm. The simple life jacket wearing is already way too much for most to abide by.

@Mary Campbell you should get into sea kayaking, very tranquil and it will still satisfy your deck hand abilities. Don't buy anything shorter than a 16 footer

@Mary Campbell Cool.

When I lived in south Florida, when we would go boating, and the stuff we would see, I was constantly amazed there were not a dozen fatalities every weekend.

It was such a crazy season this year. 🏆🙌

Jersey… Florida of the north

North Jersey and NY. South of the Driscol Bridge we're sort of normal. WE consider ourselves Central and South Jersey but then there's Camden aka East Philly.

Some kids need to be Waterboard

Easier to let them stuff the bow three times and never see them in the canal again...

@Alex Kitner problem is, it seems many boaties are doing the same thing. They send the wife and kids in the front, no life jackets, no idea how to cross an entrance and continues on till its too late.

@@davidyang577 the whole bow riding thing just comes with all these split console and pontoon boats and idiots who have zero knowledge of boat handling or the rules of the road yet scream and yell about them. The boats are dumb but IDGAF if people want to buy them and mess around in the bay or raft up at F-cove or Tices then good for them. When they start trying to run the canal with no clue and no respect on a busy weekend then it becomes a problem. The great thing about the canal back in the day was that those who shouldn't be in there stayed out because of its reputation. It has gotten worse but its not the canal, its traffic from all these new credit card captains half of which manage to find that sweet spot where they make the biggest wake possible and the rest do 2 knots SOG with the tide in a 23 foot outboard that can just barely keep control and bitch when they're looking up at the anchor of a 35 Henriques thats doing 8 knots at idle...

@Alex Kitner idiotic indeed. Private Boat safety course needs to be compulsory I think.

No puzzle.. The world is full of idiots...

Similar story in my family...it just got too expensive to offer the next generation the things it seemed we had so easily.

All the dumbasses yelling slow down are creating wakes themselves. But not any surprise, these are the same idiots that elected Christie.

Everyone knows you don't take on this inlet unless you're ready for the clownshow that happens daily at Pt pleasant and Manasquan Grew up there. This was my backyard 😂 Slow the f down and jfc slow the f down are most common language used. Sinking crafts happen often at this exact spot by the bridge We would over to stand and watch as kids

@@bdanielcal4608 I have not, but I do believe you. I watch a lot of these vids from Haulover, Pt. Pleasant, etc. They're all washing machines, and the difficulties become problems when the equipment and pilot's skills aren't up to the job.

The Moors

Natural selection has been nullified by the nanny state and this is detrimental to our species. The very fact most of these people were allowed to reproduce is a affront to Darwinism .

We? Speak for yourself.

Why being from the Netherlands is relevant?

lol@@Gyuresssz

@@Gyuresssz Because NL is situated on the northsea, with the entire western and northern border. We are the delta of 3 major European rivers (Rhine, Meuse and Schelde) Half of NL is below sealevel. We created much of it by taking it from the sea. Weve been seafearing for 1000s of years. Tiny as we are, we ruled the worlds seas for a century. Everyone is a sailor here, as we are all raised with water and all are married to the sea. Every native can swim and passed 1 or more exams to prove it. For going out in motorized boats like these, or even sailing boats, you need to study the rules and pass the exam for that. For westerschelde, where i live, you need 2 even, bc its a busy shipping lane with the worlds biggest ships coming through. Passing that exam is needed for every river, sea arm and sea. Only on small inlands waters (not rivers) you are allowed to boat without a license and engine hp's are very limited for those. (usually 5hp or smth) and then there still are speed restrictions. Every dutch boy spends numerous hours and days on the beach. Thats the thing your parents buy you; a bucket and a shovel. And then you can go study the water, as it takes down your sandcastles when the tide comes in. And you learn on a small scale how water behaves. Thats what we do and what we are. And those rules and so are in place bc of many deaths on the water or by the water. And even with those rules, people still die. But not as much as it used to be. What you see in this video (and more like it) would NEVER be allowed in NL. There is NO way. If anyone would try, they would probably jail them. And for good reason, bc what these idiots are doing is asking for casualties. Those bow rider and other constructs have no place even near a sea. And then they are on there with children and babies even, without life jackets. No wonder there is continuous guard by water police, bc without the number of casualties would be staggering. A kid or even adult can easily be swept from the boat on those bow riders. Then with some whirling there, possibly undercurrent, you can fish up a dead body somewhere around there, bc you are not going to be able to save them.

w NL@@StofStuiver

There not 'Skippers' there yahoos that's the problem.

and, one time of making your passengers that scared, they will not want to go out again

Bow riders shorter than 20ft would eat up those swells with the bow up. Only boat that doesn’t belong there are the pond toons. Everyone is trimmed down in they’re center consoles and I’d cruise right on past in my 17’8” sea swirl bow rider with the bow up. Only commented because my bow rider has ran 12 miles out in the keys in 7-8 swells and it also runs 14 inches of water no jackplate just trimmed. Bow riders are the best bang for your buck guaranteed. At least used ones.

I get your point, but the speed of other boats is what the causes the most problems here. We’ve been out there when the water is glass and one douche bag speeding thru can ruin ur day real fast. I get what ur saying tho, he handled that like a clown.

Clearly a large portion of these ‘captains’ don’t know “starboard and port”…and they certainly don’t know the Right of Way Rules…

Lake Michigan is no joke, i have been in 10 to12 foot waves that where steeper than salt water. If you go somewhere where the authorities are required to regulate peoples behavior, expect the worst much like that big city on lake Michigan.

No wake speed may just sink you..get the fucking bow up!!

100%. Sometimes there are days where it’s better to just chill in the bay and not go out to the ocean.

THANK YOU! Nobody is mentioning the ridiculous wakes... tickets for all

In those conditions going slow is bad news - you should know that as a boat owner of 18 years. Get that bow up.

And, when a Bertram is taking a beating in an inlet, you sure don't want to be running it in some open bow lake boat.

Well apparently no one has and idea how boats work anymore.

A friend in OC had a 31’ Bertram we used to enjoy. Around 87’ best damn summer of my life. 🏐⛳️🍻💨🍄 and so on…. 😎I almost forgot - 👙👯‍♀️☀️🩱damn, the fuk’n 80’s… if you were there; you just know.

Your allowed do drink on a boat captain is a dumbass either way

Yeah... All of these "captains" in this video be like: "What's a trim?"

I know, right? Is it because they only boat a few months of the year? All the nautical knowledge gets frozen and shattered during the winter months?

That’s because they never learned even the basics of handling a boat and really shouldn’t be allowed the responsibility of being a Captain. I’m sure they have no idea that, as Captain, they are personally responsible for the safety of every soul onboard their boat.

@@maryannewhite3620 You're NEVER going to be a top-earning Boat Salesperson with that negative attitude!... lol... in ah-MER'ca, EVERYone gets a boat!... and a chicken in every pot... it's called "Democracy"! 😁

... oh, and if you're a really OVERWEIGHT 'mer'can, you can not only have a boat, you can yell "Get out of my way!" 😒🤔

I’m a longtime BC mariner and I recently went out on a rental boat from Granville Island with some friends who don’t boat. Long story short they we’re having a great time driving a boat for the first time and I was enjoying the sun. all of a sudden my buddy stuffed it good on a standing wave out by the iron workers bridge. I jumped on the helm immediately and recovered it luckily I can only imagine what would’ve happened if I had decided to stay home that day

Live in bc, and if by crazy you mean awesome I agree completely

In Michigan you take a class in 6th grade and your boaters license is good for life. I never understood how this made sense.

USA is NOT about common sense and being responsable. It's all about sales and money so if the rules are kept VERY low, then more and more ijuts can buy boats. It's really as simple as that. In other parts of the world, you need experience to pilot a boat.

​@@user-oe1mb9hu9iwe prefer freedom in the states.

a dealership can in no way help people that are this STUPID

Good info, thank you.

The only one who tried, and actively worked the throttle, was the pontoon boat. Should have moved everybody to the back and made sure EVERYONE had life jackets on before entering that battlefield, and he didn't react quickly enough, but he at least had a decent grasp of what to do once it hit the fan.

​@@notexpatjoeif you want to be that pedantic, the *actual* correct solution is to balance your boat however it needs to be balanced. With a decent bow that might be midship, but for others including pontoons, depending on load out, you may well want to put people as far rear as possible. The only definitively bad idea is putting people, or maybe children on the bow.

At risk of being pedantic, I'm not so sure outboard trim is always good for raising the bow. At slow speeds the prop is pumping water out from under the back of the boat and trimming out will add more weight by pushing the water higher. Then the cantilevered portion in the front of the boat (if any) has to be supported by the center going deeper. A big factor seems to be the short waves when the shape between peaks happens to match the curve of the boat. Shallow water compared to wave height causes that, I think, no matter what causes the wave's height.

Get in touch with me in respect of the above number for a reward conversation ok

Ehh, my grandpa remembers that canal being a shitshow back in the 60's. It's never been tame.

...move bitch, get out tha way bitch, get out tha way...

The bridge may have been replaced but that ledge and deep hole are still there. That boat didn't leave a standing wave, the current dropping off that shelf then coming back up makes it. And they need to just ban pontoon boats in there, they cannot handle a 1 foot chop on the bay... And I feel bad for the tug style boat but the moment Karen-shouldntwearabikini started bitching I enjoyed it. The wife of some credit card captain is gonna tell me how to run the canal GFY lady. I've got 6 knots of current and a boat with an ass bigger than hers, tooty the tug and Mrs CCCaptain may be able to maintain steerage but the sport boat is gonna see his stern pass him on 2 whistles if he tries to hold up behind them. People need to learn that the canal is like the parkway, you have to go or gtfo of the way...

Unfortunately we’ve circumvented natural selection. People like this now roam amongst us!

Immigrant types

Should of trimmed to help lift the bow

But then if they go slow the turbulence will throw them around

Why are the waves so big it don't look very windy

Beautifully put David!!! I was worried sick watching the mom holding baby.....lastly, cannot believe the lack of life preservers like you noted as well!!!

Even lake craft. I work summers at lakes in Virginia; drunk, speeding, pwcs racing through the swimming areas, boats anchoring in swimming areas, boat rage. Just - knuckle-headedry and hockey puckery.

Well at least it drowns out the shitty music that these boaters usually insist everyone else needs to listen to.

I thought they were being polite for New Jersey, inserting only one or two obscenities per sentence….

This is a canal that joins the Manasquan River with the Northern End of Barnegate Bay. When the tide is going out the canal sucks all the water out of the bay to the River causing a VERY STRONG CURRENT. To get back into the bay on an out. Going tide you are facing at least a 20knot current, resulting I. The need for higher speeds, but no enough to endanger other boats. Back in The day we used to go one at a time, like driving in your own lane on the road. Today everyone is in such a rush and they don’t think about the damage their boats do.

I’m surprised the sharks don’t hang out here. Lots of bait it seems.

Do folks traverse that channel by choice or for entertainment value? Do they have to go up that channel to get to the ocean and back again?

@@JaRule6 It is the only reasonably close outlet to the Ocean in that area. Many Boaters have limited skills and should not attempt this Channel. Another Dock might be a better option, but the Ocean is probably not for those who can't safely navigate the Channel.

@@williampagdon4822 Thanks for letting me know. I agree with you completely.
