What could the captain have done differently to avoid the crash here? Where is everyone watching from? 🌎
He could have been a bus driver lol,Australia here
I don’t have a boat. I’m not a boater. I know nothing about anything regarding a boat. But I can tell that big ass boat would not fit under that bridge.
Check tide charts, maneuvered quicker, had fender out until out of the channel. Captain in San Diego Ca.
Have the boat built from lighter materials and have stronger engines.
Looks to me like he tried to turn around when he realized he wouldn’t fit. Probably should’ve checked that first and it’s not too hard. Most chartplotters have that information built in. So besides that he should’ve backed down HARD and straight instead of trying to turn around (assuming he was doing that. I can’t come up with any other explanation as to how he got sideways to the current). Once he was sideways, it was too late nothing can get you out of that with the current ripping like that. Edit. Since there are so many couch captains out here I have to add, since we didn’t see the minutes leading up to this nor were any of us on the boat, anything said here is at best speculation.
I’m up in Canada and I can check the tide charts for Haulover. Million dollar boat, one dollar skipper.
surely you know that yacht is quite a bit more than one million, right.....? Even in Canadian pesos....?
Leave our dollar out of this
@@cameronjuzda7246 yen?
@@ronen160hajaja Canadian pesos 😅
Even as a Canadian, that was FAF🤣
That'll buff out.
Mr. Original That phrase went out back in the 90’s Haha…… !!!!
@@timbruns3818 I still like it!
@timbruns3818 Your response was great pal. 👍
😂😂😂
New windows.
Yes, insurance would cover. The replacement captain will have a newly buffed boat. 😉
Damn right there will be a replacement captain!
Of course you've read the policy; if the owner even had insurance. You would be better not to act like such a know-it-all.
@@rski1036 In that case it would be a “self-insured” event. So, yes, insurance would cover, either as issued by an insurance company or as self-insured.
I guess the captain thought the bow thruster was stronger than the tidal flow. That was wishful thinking.
How do you not know the tides and you are a captain...mind boggling!!
Some are boat drivers and some are Captains. I think we can tell who they are.
Theres a theme occuring..
Came for the big yacht crash, stayed for the stuffings! My wife thinks I'm crazy but I love your channel!! Watching from the SF bay area!
Hard to believe anyone still lives there.
@@rski1036 Best believe it, Barney
Why didn't cops help instead of watch
Really enjoy the drone shots - in fact, I enjoy all your efforts, many thanks from the UK!
I like that the law enforcement boat right there as the Yacht hit was like..."eh".
Wouldn't be surprised if the cap raised them on radio beforehand.
@@maddierosemusic Ya I agree. I was just joshin.
First choice on the red mystery boat is Donzi from long ago rebuilt hence no decals etc.
On a dull grey UK evening it’s good to watch sun and surf and people having loads of fun across the pond. Also - drone footage is a great new feature!
As someone without a boat, your subtitles is how I learned slow speed causes stuffings, thanks for that. Please continue to drop random pointers a little at a time.
Greetings from Tucson, Arizona.. The drone shots are rad!
Why to people say rad? Such a dumb word
@@Wogger46 Possibly. To some. Not as dumb as 'planthead'.
That Confounded Bridge 🎼🌉🛥️
ZEPPELIN RULES!
I guess now we know where it is!
Florida Man on the vintage Donzi, " Hell Yea "
Love the drone shots, best investment ever👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
You drone pilot does a fantastic job. Keep up the great work
He punched in a useful boarding ladder.
The number of small LAKE boats heading into the ocean is amazing.......in a bad way !!!! LOL That Yamaha is like a bathtub toy !
And yet they all had a good time and returned home safely. Crybabies should always stay at home so they risk nothing......And gain nothing either.
Ya know Wavy, I might be getting older but I still like some nice drone footage on a choppy day.
The drone shots are great !! The docks should have a big screen w/a live feed so people can decide before doing the inlets
Drone shots are great. Awesome perspective!
The red mystery boat was super cool. Would love to know what it was.
The drone shots are beautiful .......guessing what ND filters is fun too. Keep up the awesome work.
Watching from Colorado and love the drone footage after the regular side shot. Gives that whole "you've got another thing coming" feel (judas priest)😂
Great Drone Shots and Audio ❤
6:48 wasn't a stuff, the wave broke over the bow, but the boat was setup well, just a bigger wave.
That tide is very fast if you look down at the water. That definitely made it a lot hard to maneuver quickly
Imo- Captain error 💯- Ins would cover, hate to see the deductible on it...
It probably would have better to allow the satellite dishes to get ripped off than to bounce the hull off the bumpers.
R U KIDDIN??? I LOVE the drone shots!!!!!
The Nimbus T11 actually did really well. It is unavoidable to not get stuffed by a sharp huge wave like that.
Drone shots are amazing! What brand drone are you using. Awesome clarity. Enjoy your content. Although you only document what people do! But it's great to watch.
No sweat from that Formula. That's one tough boat.
The Formula 400 captain almost had it just right. The first few waves, he was going a little too fast, which caused him to come down a wave too quickly. He slowed down after he stuffed it that first time. After that, that is how you drive one of those size boats. You go slow, with the bow high, and accelerate just enough to keep the tip of the bow over the top of the crest. Going any faster causes the bow to come down too quickly between waves and causes a stuff.
Great drone footage - keep it up!
Loving the drone shots! 👍
That CAPT will be renting jet skis to tourist next week. He knew what his air draft was and tried to cheat it. Yeah, insurance will cover the 2+million in loss ... but that thing will never be the same.
Keys to avoid stuffing in big swells on small boat: 1. Trim bow up as much a possible while maintaining sufficient control 2. Don't go head on, apply as much approach angle as possible 3. Gage speed according to wave. You’ll stay dry
Epic filming, sound, and drone near the beginning , from a pro cameraman in NZ !
I'm definitely enjoying the drone shots HOWEVER, I don't want to see everything twice!
Mystery boat looks like 1 of the corvettes but I couldn't see TBE back to see if it had the round lights like a corvette but it also looks like an early 90s Baja.
Great done footage!!!
32 ft Proline walk around/cabin - trim the bow up and plow ahead at 16 knots; take the waves at a 30 degree angle as appropriate; cut the speed when the crest of the water is about the touch the high bowsprit as necessary. Following seas are preferred, lol
That mystery red boat looks like a late 70's to early 80's Formula.
Mistery boat might be a 80s Mirage or Excalibur? In any case handled it better than the big bad Midnight Express…..
I had a Taylor Made jet boat that looked a lot like it, mine was smaller overall. But same winshield gunnell. Circa 1975. The red one was bigger overall.
Looks like a scarab- adabadoo!
@@archiebunker7688 hahahaha
Is it always like this or just when the tide is coming in? Planning on visiting Haulover next month enroute to Islamorada from Indiana.
It all depends on the combination of tide and wind. There are plenty of videos where boats are able to fly through there at 40 miles an hour and the water is glass smooth
In France when you pass the permit for high seas you always have in the exam a calculation of tides at a certain harbour at a certain time , the captain did not plan correctly or the owner changed the program of the cruise and this situation occured .
the boat at 2:30 was a Kirkland express
Sure reminds me of the late 80's Wellcraft Scarabs.
What most of these people don't understand.... speed is your friend. Just like on a motorcycle or mt. bike. You can launch off one wave and land on the backside of another, rinse and repeat. It's not that difficult. You just have to constantly work the throttle.
Yeah awesome videos thanks for sharing definitely the drone is good
The drones shots are fantastic, especially at 3:54
In other videos you see the captain had time to stop before the bridge and reverse the boat. He just didnt reverse back enough to do the U-turn.
7:26 The only Guy, who knows to drive a boat. Not direct into a wave.
6:51 WICKED SHOT!!! 😮
All he had to do was go astern, to try a turn in a confined space with a strong current wasn't clever. He's also throttle happy. The fuller clip makes the situation clearer.
Watching from Bay St Louis Mississippi
Yes the drone shots are great.
They are amazing. Very good drone work.
Captain yelling into microphone at the time of crash: "All reverse!!!!!!!!! Bring her about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Look sharp to port, STEADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Captain speaking into another kind of microphone a few days after crash: "Would you like fries with that?"
"A fool and his money are soon parted" never was so apt
Amazing day at the Inlet, a bow stuffing marathon!
The drone shots are great, gives you a great perspective on how the waves are breaking and what the boat is having to cut through. But you better be ready to fuzz out wardrobe malfunctions! :D .. EDIT: Outstanding stuffing view! keep the drone!
Have I told you yet today how much I love The Midnight Express?
I'm not a boat guy, but at the same love the beauty and styling of some boats. My number 1 boat to own if I were ever wealthy enough would hands down not a second thought be a midnight express!
Mystery boat looks like an old Baja.
I was thinking Baja or Checkmate?
As soon as I hit the comment button Checkmate came to mind@@bobtenharkel4367
Was thinking 80’s regal velocity 30ft
Checkmate looks right
Yep when I first saw it I was like "Checkmate".
That Red cigarette boat was sick
The first scene. Me : When you order a captain from TEMU. The witnesses: Hey George
Of course insurance would cover it.
Of course 😉
@@timetowakeup6302 off course?
Premiums will go up too.
@@darb4091 …no doubt?
deductible on boats like this is ,100.000, so😂🎉 no insurance will pay for ...
That's Haulover Inlet for you! Boating accidents are everywhere!
Love the drone shots
Drone shots rock!
That Midnight Express stuffing it. Shameful.
Love, love the drone shots!!!!!!
That's an Azimut Grande 32m, it's a yacht charter around Miami. $130k/week
Which means it’s a commercially registered boat, requiring a professional skipper, am I right?
I surfed out off that inlet to the left of the bridge off the jetty the current there is nuts ... only place to really surf in south florida .. i watch these boats all the time ... sometimes ive seen sherifs shut it up on both ends ... the left jetty is in a hook and the waves are perfect .. its towds the sunny isles side of the beach ... ive seen windows smash up .. and some funny stuff .. go there sit and just watch for a few hours
If anyone’s in the market for a used boat in south Florida, I’d watch this channel and see if the one you’re looking at buying makes any appearances. Will tell you how well it was cared for.
That mystery boat looks like and old 70s or 80s Glastron possibly a gt model
My guees on the red boat is a sleekcraft 26' enforcer maybe early 90's
6:35 Nimbus is a premium swedish boat brand. Nice so see in the us =)
Great drone footage. At 3:54 he turned that boat into a wading pool.
Theres a theme occuring...
That was Baltimore right that js had a crash cz it was dark n broke the whole fkn bridge..the video..shit looked odd to me. Wat r they tryn to distract us from or indirectly say now
@@brain189 power failure, loss of control authority as the vessel was passing a channel. Calls were made for tugs but were already too close to the bridge, anchor was dropped to no avail. Catalogue of disasters really. At least its still upright and not on its side and at least the bridge was shut down of most traffic.
Red mystery boat looks like a Checkmate but not sure
The drone shots are VERY cool!
Captain's error. In my 200-ton class, we were tested on the height of tides and current speed. The captain should have known the height of his vessel as it related to the height of any structure prior to him approaching it.
They should restrict those Midnight Express bowriders to lakes and lazy rivers.
Methinks someone has been enjoying olives. The ones in their 14 Martinis..... 🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸🍸 Great video!
luv the drone shots
4.57 submarine MODE ... 🌊
droneshots are amazing!! top keep on filming else.
Do they have to run the boats through the inlet ? It looks like it destroys boats
Great drone footage!
Mystery boat: Hawaiian? Saw one for sale with Arneson drive a long time ago. Looks very similar.
On the bright side, he's got some new portlight cutouts.
Is it just me or does anyone else who has a boat just like to go out to unwind and have a calm relaxing day out on the water? There is no way I would consider venturing out on some of those boats on an inland lake with waves half that size let alone going out in to the ocean. If I had to practically risk my life just to get out of the inlet to go boating, I would turn around and call it a day. To each their own. Yeah, that captain will be looking for a new 'command' after that bone headed stunt.
🇬🇧Questions from the UK: Can someone explain to me why it’s always that rough in the inlet? Where are they heading out to sea to, and is it just as rough further out?
just adds character to hull
A good captain is always planning ahead, you learn to read the conditions and the waves too. As for crashing the boat, it’s a sign of inexperience as it were. You must allow for the weather conditions to change, in an instant it can go wrong. Keep focused on what you are doing and don’t get distracted by others around you. By all means have fun but the sea can be a dangerous place too,show it some respect.
captain of the widow maker (red boat) is highon Jeemy
Great drone footage
Drone images very good 👍
the drone is awesome
🎉 crashing boats seems to be a viral trend lately
