BOAT SINKING AT HAULOVER INLET!! | MAYDAY MAYDAY 8 PASSENGERS!!
Crazy day at Haulover Inlet. A bowrider with 8 passengers started taking on water near the end of the south jetty. I had to call it in myself on my radio and thankfully help was right around the corner. The towboat guys flew to the scene and salvaged what could have ended in a tragedy. Great job to all the first responders!

If the guy new how to creep into an inlet and use the trim to get the bow out of the water
Turn on the bilge pump.
learn to swimm

did you see the guy "bailing" with his hands? how much alcohol was consumed beforehand
Jim Rawling its seems to me to be a more of a experience thing. Someone needs to take a boating course
@Keith Long Those boats ur talking about are designed for lacs not salt water, as the one in the video...
Dont be silly its just a low rider...or Guess you never saw an open bow sub? Or quit making fun of the SS wakanda
Love the guy trying to bail water out with one hand. 😂
That was the smartest thing I saw in this video
Saw that too! Almost spit my beer all over my keyboard!

They obviously don't know physics or basic calculations.
Love how all the life jackets were smart enough to abandon ship.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Then they just let them float away. The one guy putting on a vest, couldn’t figure it out. They could have won the Darwin Team Awards. Then the reverse doggie paddle throwing out 2.3 ounces of water at time. Fucking solid first mate and crew!
Under rated comment 😜😜😜😂😂
Hahaha!!
😆
So many amazing moments. The compartment that opened and the life jackets that float away. The guy trying to bail out the water with his bare hand. The same guy taking a life vest only for himself.
He probably couldn't swim. No racist, but alot of black ppl don't learn to swim. The water frizzes their hair. I have 2 mixed daughters and they hate swimming because of how it leaves their hair. If I couldn't swim and you could, I'd toss your azz off the boat for my vest. Lol 😆
Neither he did not know how to wear life jacket.
"We don't have enough water in here yet. Hold on, I can scoop up some more."
Exactly!😂
I feel like common sense would tell you throw that thang in reverse instead of burying it lol
My ultimate boating goal, swimming while in my boat.
“Should’ve brought a couple more friends to help fill it up”
😂🤣
the captain was bailing with a 16 oz drink cup. if it had been 20 oz, this could have been avoided
🤣😂
My biggest laugh of the day, thanks. Now I can retire to bed. It is after midnight and I just turned into an old lady..
@White Mans World The captain is a big gulp...lol
😂😂😂
LOL for the win!
I have to admire the commitment of the captain to turn his boat into a submarine.
I haven't laughed this hard in a while,that whole vessel has a combined I.Q of maybe 20 🤣
I think you're being a bit optimistic @ 20. Watching him push forward and bury the bow deeper while he was already half sunk was hard to watch.
Don't be mean. Many of us learned boating skills as young kids. Those people were just trying to have some good wholesome fun.
@@tsteinebach287 bwahahaha inexperienced fun you mean
@@tsteinebach287 when its life or death u cant be having fun without knowing the consequences of your actions. the sea is no childs play
Well, its obvious none of these people were used to boating. They probably saved up for this trip for the whole family. At least they can probably laugh at this event for the rest of their lives.
I have to give them credit on the first boat for quick thinking and throwing some life jackets overboard to lighten the load .
😂😂😂
And the guy who acted by bailing out water with his hands.
😂
that one guy was like "how do life jackets work? where do my arms go?" then just gives up like his accepting fate lol
How about the guy scooping water with a cup 😂😂 I’m not sure if that cup had kool aid or some type of liquor before
You throw the life jacket into the water. Then you jump into the water after it. Some people are meant to be on land and do not go into the ocean
Lmfao
@@Evergreen1400 I saw that, I was like WHAT!!!! LOL, THAT AINT GNNA DO A THING HAHAHA!!!🤣🤣😂😂

If you ever wondered what the left side of the Bell Curve in action ever looked like...
That boat looks like its designed to take on water.
at least 6 more people on it than it was designed for.
Well some of those boats are like wave runners filled with foam in the hull to keep it somewhat buoyant and not sink.
@hell Bent well not really
That boat was designed for a lake
You mean with or without the Sunday sailors? 😀
When you see someone cruising with the bow ladder down in the water, and overloaded, usually doesn’t end well.
That what I thought too 👏👏👏
Rental company, "Sir have your driven a watercraft before?" Driver, "Oh Yes many times before" while thinking, what is a watercraft?
Unfortunately, the ability to turn a key is the only skill needed to operate a powerboat. A boating course should be mandatory.
@@glasshalffull8625 In most countries (and in a lot of US states) it is needed to get a license but in FL they don't need no stinkin' license because, you know, freedom and stuff.
I love that the jackets all went into the water. One that was left homeboy slung on himself.
Why was it so satisfying watching this take place. It made me smile entirely to much. Exactly why people who know nothing about boating shouldn't be doing it...
Going BACK to Cuba?
This is the water equivalent to that 11 Foot 8 bridge, and I love it.

Hands down the funniest boat video ever and some people shouldn't be on the water!
love the new view position combined with the old! Well done guys.. it just so nice to watch and hear those sounds of the water too.. Cheers
Incredible response time. Huge props to those who saved these people and the boat.
You can see when the mayday goes out in the background the lime green tow boat does a u-turn and immediately starts to respond
As stupid as the people were...that boat would have not sunk. Too much flotation foam in the hull. That is as swamped as that boat gets.
This is miami beach ,,,my home
@Bobby Boucher it mostly will but it doesnt have to
@Bobby Boucher bs
1.03 dude gives up trying to put on life jacket. Takes it off and realises that his only salvation is to start bailing with one hand. Honestly you could not make this up. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He realized he was a goner, so he had to look good.
Love how many people came to help those that couldn't help themselves.
Loved the emergency hand scooping of the water 💧

LoL!!
Vicious
Hoowah
Made me Laugh out loud! Good one
rich keylor Brilliant!!! I swear that was Lil’ Wayne up in the bow
The scooping it out with the hands while still continuing to go forward and sink it is killing me
glad I wasn't the only one. =D
Im suprised they werent using a teaspoon

Front storage pops open and they just watch their life jackets float away.
Yeah, i don’t think we’re dealing with geniuses here.
Unbelievable at least yes their all drunk they can't all be that dumb
@@johndisher8763 they’re not dumb, you’re going to jump into the water to attempt to grab a life jacket? Stay in the boat and wait for the coastguard. Idky you hating cause no one got hurt and they was safely evacuated
@@odst2247 will when you have a open bow an you don't pull the bow noses up before hitting the wave you probably shouldn't be driving the boat. Once the open bow took on water you don't drive your open bow into another wave. Never said nothing about life jackets but since you brought it up they should have been wearing them in the first place. Another snowflake talking about hate where it just don't fit the conversation. You were probably driving the boat lol
@@johndisher8763 it would have helped if they would have put two or three more people on board. Sarcasm.
love the close-up looks at people in their yachts.
I think we need a bigger boat🤣 The guy in the front trying to bail water with his hands too funny😂
That dude was putting on his lifevest like he was on the Titanic. 🤣🤣
Lmao yeah I saw that!
😂😂
probably doesn't know how to swim
Likely that nobody on that boat knows how to swim.
You obviously don't understand how dangerous the riptide is at an inlet like this, the current and obvious top water conditions it produces, that and constant traffic of boats producing wake. In other words tide wants to pull you under while waves want to drown you at the surface. I don't care how good you can swim, any little problem becomes huge without flotation in that environment. Its like swimming in a washing machine.
Captain gave it his best shot, but failed to sink the boat.
Love the dudes hand scooping then captain throttling.
Wow. That was stupidity in action. Could’ve been way worse. Tug boat response time was A1!!! Bravo.
The ladder being down gave it away immediately that something bad was about to go down.
😂🤣
That help the bow up with the 19 peeps in front
"Lets go forward when the bow is filled". ...yea, smart.
He should have stopped moving the boat and waited for the pumps to do their jobs. Continuing to drive was a gigantic mistake.
john mac That boat is designed for lakes not oceans the haul is as deep as a damn John boat plus they did have a overcapacity boat
OMG what happened to common sense this guy is an idiot...boat stops taking on water when I turn around/stop. What does he do, flips a B and powers on, then it gets worse so he guns it. So people shouldn't have a boat...ever!
I would almost guarantee this is a rental boat
lol
Kudos to the rescue team excellent job 👏👏👏👏👏
Bummer! I know about this inlet only because I watch alot of this channel. Thanks for an entertaining channel.
Boat chugs water from the front and the guy starts driving the boat forward and nobody moves to the back? IQ levels not found
And all they likely had to do was trim the outboard up. But really its a poor boat design. No freeboard, and no way for the water to exit. Compare that to most sailboats with with an open transom or at least drains in the cockpit.

When they're booting along with the swim ladder dangling down, you know you're not dealing with any great geniuses.
Was thinking the same thing.. 😏👍
Probably not a good idea to do it when boating as well.
8 ppl--1 of which weighed twice as much as everyone else--when 4 max should've been on it.
I looked up that boat. It's a Nauticstar 193SC. It's actually rated for 10 people but only 1447 pounds of weight. They probably looked at the capacity and ignored the weight rating. I just purchased my first boat and would never overload it like that. Plus the captain should have stayed in neutral instead of gunning it in full forward. Also should have had his passengers move as far aft as possible. The bilge system probably would have corrected it. The lesson here is always pay attention to the capacities of your boat
Just another example of good decent people caring for each other. Not enough of this on the news. God bless those rescuers Oh yeah…. it’s also a lesson of what not to do on a small A$$ boat lol
I felt sorry for the boat and outboard. Boat was overloaded and piloted by a bunch of incompetent idiots
and the wrong kind of boat for the ocean
motor miraculously survived 😂 you can see it still running as they tow it

@@keithclark486 it was not going to make any difference with the idiot at the wheel as he seemed to think that the boat needed equal amounts of water inside the boat as outside the way he kept giving more throttle to make sure the bow can scoop up the maximum amount of water 💦 to replace the few handfuls the guy scooped out.
Thank you for the video haven't laughed this hard in a long time
Just love how other boaters just fly by, with lots of lifevests in the water.
When they got about 15 people off of that boat the boat stopped sinking.
I bet they rented the boat and then as you said put too many people on the boat along with them not knowing wtf they were doing in the first place. Colored me shock.

6 year old niece: "It's sinking because there's too many people....he doesn't know how to use a life jacket" Pretty funny that a toddler could figure it out.
Instead of going back out to smooth water to allow the bilge to catch up and give them time to lighten the water load, they just head right in to the waves again...... genius
You’re making the assumption that the POS has a bilge pump.
Bilge pump?? We don't need no stinkin' bilge pump!!! We just need LESS people on the boat!!!
It's a nauticstar, they aren't without a pump. And its probably a rental, these people are just dumbasses that think all there is to driving a boat is steering wheel and throttle

I don't know what was funnier, the life jackets floating away, the one or two people half committed to bailing water by hand or watching the man try to figure out how to wear the life vest. I think it's safe to say these men have not been on too many vessels out in open water.
The closest water they've come to was an open fire hydrant.

Nice of those boats whizzing by in the beginning to render aid. Well done!
They actually may not have noticed. If you're moving forward and paying attention to the seas, boat traffic, your bow angle, your passengers, etc., you might not realize a boat up ahead is sitting low in the water.

Sure he does it's feeding time for sharks dark meat or white
@@donaldstrubhar4697 Dark meat to me
The term, "Drive it like you stole it" is coming to mind.!!
And bad boat design. Look how the bow is curved pointing down. All the other NauticStar boats with the same design do the same. Just watch more videos. So you have inexperience with a bad boat design, and this is what you get.
Your name should be “ captain obvious “ 😀
My first thought when I saw the boat initially was that the boat was overloaded. I guess I was right.
Nah had a few more spots for a few more fools.

THAT'S SOUND WRONG WHAT YOU SAID...
Exactly! This happened to us when my Dumb ass boy friend forgot to put the plug back in before we headed out. We had my entire family (9) on the large cabin cruiser and I noticed that water was over the back deck. This was unusual so I handed every one a life vest and said don't panic but we are taking on water. Boyfriend realized he forgot plug and started to hit the gas getting us up close to dock and my son jumped out and drove the truck and trailer down to the ramp we loaded up and holy crap for all the water that came out! Hitting the gas caused us not to sink.
I love how your like the protector of the inlet. "This is wavy boats down at haulover we got a boat going down" they like oh shit hes filming time for the fastest response time!
It being Summer, could you imagine the smell on that boat.
There's definite parallels between that boat and what's happening to America right now. And they just keep hitting the throttle and watching the life vest float away.
Yeah then Trump supporters come to the rescue lol
I know right....
I thought the exact same thing..... Ignorant "Captain" obviously operating above his station, the raised fists, overloaded vessel most likely due to monetary constraints...... and then it takes on water. What was the "Captain's" response? Hit the gas in a "do something/anything" even if it means just doing the same thing that created the issue. Extra points for the idiots bailing out the boat with their hands instead of a cohesive and coherent attempt to correct the actions and prepare (save/retrieve life vests and flotation equipment).
