Hey Guys, Me, Chief, Ryan, Forest, and John took a little trip to the Bahamas for a few days, we experienced strong winds and rough weather so we were unable to fish, but we did a a-lot of diving and spearfishing gettin a bunch of groupers and snappers. On the ride home we got caught in a storm and stuffed the bow a few times, one of the waves we hit caved in the front of the bow, we started taking in water, and almost sunk 20 miles offshore.... Hope you enjoy!

Not the first twin vee ive seen come apart...glad everyone is OK. Hopefully chief has the boat insured.

[@terryfonz4603]

That deck hanging out over the sponsons is a horrible design. Thts exactly what I would expect taking big waves on the bow like that. The sponsons are too shallow they need to be taller for one!

[@working2bselfsufficient724]

​@@terryfonz4603yup

[@KillinTimeHuntingFishing]

Go ahead and cut it up and make it a complete walk around center console

[@scott5764]

Glad to see you made it back safe. Definitely a case of right man at the helm, in Chief we trust!!!

[@panamacitybeachbum]

The "former" overhanging deck forward of the sponsons makes that design a deathtrap in adverse sea conditions. I also noticed how low the stern sat in the water. Be safe. Hope your team gets a different boat.

[@scary_scat3924]

You are 100% correct,as soon as i saw that overhang,i thought the samething

[@scottsavage6047]

Man, That's Scary!!!! Coming from the Navy I can tell you some bad weather stories!

[@JoshuaRosario1114]

When the plantains are green and hard , all u have to do is cook them for two minutes on eat side then take them out and flatten them to about 1/4” thick then cook them for about three minutes on each side , take them out and add salt and garlic .

[@alfadanhighperformanceoutb8416]

Hey Ani, When you make those non ripe plantains, get them golden and then pull them from the oil. Put them between paper or a board and squish them down to like 3/8” thick. You then put them back in the pan and finish frying them. In Spanish they are called Tostones. Don’t over cook them.

[@EscapeMiami]

The boat is a perfect design for its intended use, i.e. not running downhill at 26mph in an Atlantic storm. Every boat has limitations and looking at that bow it's pretty clear there's not enough freeboard to be out in those conditions. Not really fair to blame the manufacture for the hull failure, after all it is a 16 year old boat. You were what, 4 years old when it was manufactured? How many times has it been stuffed? How many times should it be able to be? Captains call.

[@FrankieV772]

It was only 4-6’ that boat should have been able to handle that at 30kts east. It clearly a poor design and or weak fabrication.

[@cspruitt3190]

That design doesn't make since to me. The deck that failed looked inadequate for the force it was taking. Those 300s slamming it into water at 20+ is too much for that design. It doesn't make since. It could have been really worse really easily. My opinion. Am i wrong?

[@ultimatejay]

@@cspruitt3190 Long story short, they were going way too fast for those conditions. Water is not forgiving you have a 8000lb boat going 30 mph and then you plow the bow into a wave, what do expect is going to happen. Slow the F down and trim tabs up.

[@Al-oe8ib]

Exactly, looks like a day boat, and that overhang on the bow is just asking for a wave being so close to the water

[@robertbrown5019]

It almost looks like an aftermarket modification. The forward deck certainly extends too far forward and doesn't have enough support for offshore conditions. But I'm also surprised the captain was using autopilot in those conditions.

[@riverakers]

A trip you will never forget.

[@kevinpaskovich406]

The ASMR on that roll crunch when you assembled the sandwhich was pretty spot on

[@neukin]

please dont use that metal spatula in the none stick pan ha.

[@anthonypolizze4059]

Wow! That’s a crazy scary experience! So important to have a ditch bag and an eipirb ready to go. Things can happen in a blink of an eye out there. Can never let your guard down. Glad you made it in safe and sound

[@steveurban3021]

Man, I'm glad you guys are ok. I had a similar scenario going out to the middle grounds we lost all of our bilge pumps in an old donzi center. Once that boat gets heavy it can go down in a second.

[@wonderchild53]

The next Boat should or must have a Bow...right...wow

[@Steve-Jody]

Wow, I’m guessing TV is not liking this PR nightmare. Welcome home gentleman.

[@benk5658]

What you using for spears and what’s a good starter spear

[@who_is_asking]

Get this man a SHOVEL. He gonna need it talking about them plantains

[@AnthonyC249]

Hahaha i was waiting for this comment 😂😂 she looked heaaated

[@leerobinson7086]

Twin vee boat are mostly made with a chopper gun and reinforced on the bottom and chines. They are not made to take a heavy sea.😂😂😂

[@outlawjjsmith]

Glad to see you made it back safe. Hope you can get your boat fixed.

[@BillyKrefft]

Glad everyone is good. Scary stuff!

[@snookslayer5026]

man getting all your electronics stolen off your boat is terrible to start off with. Now a video of you guys almost dying makes it worse! Glad ur safe and made it back.

[@jerimahjohnson8698]

Omg i have owned 2 world cat 266sc boats and i cant imagine it happening to those hulls...thank god you guys were ok. Man tgat thing looks sure wide in the video

[@ultimatejay]

And thats why you slow down in rough weather.

[@DirtySouth33T]

i saw the same thing happen on another twin vee years ago. i doubt they will stand behind it i think the company has changed hands since 2007. I had a delimitation issue on a pro sports 25 walk around luckily we made it back in from 40 miles off saint augustine not a fun time... boat builders should be held to a higher standard considering your life is really in their hands when your that far offshore. hopefully they help you get this right tight lines man

[@DeanSchumacher]

No doubt they should your just a little speck in the ocean when shit goes wrong

[@80884bpresley]

Awesome video man!!! Glad everyone is ok!!!

[@spencerkiraly2633]

Twin Vee is absolutely notorious for this kind of issue. My old captain had bought one to use for Charter and it was a 36. Within the first week we ran out and got into to atleast 4 to 5’s, are deck became a trampoline and both sides of the haul would flex 5 to 6 inches. We personally had creat are own bulkheads. I never recommend twin vee to anyone. They very thin glass and terrible resin. Screw Twin Vee.

[@eddyballester8990]

Glad y’all made it back safe. Scary.

[@ImGrippinNow]

Bruh you guys are the coolest. I wanna book a trip

[@Rockhead81]

Damn Boys Glad Your Back To The Dock Safe 🤘🏽💀🤘🏽

[@wadfee1545]

Movin' Bows on the Vat Cat!

[@markweigel3301]

😎🇺🇸🇧🇸🇮🇹Whassup Flannigans Compound on Grand Cay, Abaco @ 9:14 😎🥳👋🤙

[@ronaldarchie7276]

When I was young I could free dive easy now I am 65 with heart problems can't hold my breath a minute so no free diving I do go off shore bottom fishing as often as I can on a Head boat I worked on as 1st mate back in the 1990's.

[@FUNvideo-no3uw]

Enjoyed video

[@randyruney5704]

Wow. So glad y’all are safe & kept a level head. Been there.

[@Jordayne-wh9yg]

In beginning trying to show the baits😂😂

[@mercurygm]

Those are tostones. Fry both sides about 2 mins. Take out. Smash with a mug flat. Fry again for a minute or 2. Hit with lime salt pepper as soon as it comes out the oil. Will be good.

[@gabrielchirinos9992]

what's up guys I'm glad you guys make back safe, Good videos.

[@no_future9026]

Glad you made it back safe.

[@brianmeade21]

why is the boat always so far away? VERY dangerous at Grand with all of the sharks!

[@IamWeeklyBills]

im very surprised they didn't have any bulkheads up front that tied into the deck at the front of the pickle forks. Check out Scaredy Cat custom BoatWorks catamarans made in Pinellas County FL

[@hhazelhoff1363]

That’s how the ice cream machines brake at McDonald’s

[@rml3wood]

You were going to show us one of those baits?

[@franciscolorenzo5955]

Love the show, by the way to cook plantains. GREEN ones NOT BROWN, BROWN are sweeter. You will need a little bit more oil, cook 2 min flip and cook another 2 min on med heat. Then take them out and smash them in between paper towels. they should be no more than 1/4 to 2/3 thick, put a few back in the oil, and wait until they float. Put them on paper towels to suck up the oil and add SALT, Boys and Girls you have TOSTONES, Not plantains those are sweet. these will be crunchy like a cracker, But so TASTY. Enjoy take it from the CUBAN i grew up eating them.

[@neukin]

Your videos are so badazz, audio was a bit wack but still enjoyed every sec. Thanks

[@adamfrdmn1]

What boat brand is this? I'd love to see a tour video on it!

[@nickkinney4942]

Glad u guys r still fishing 🎣 hope it not the end of the fatcat

[@JWnFlorida]

Have fun boys much luv

[@edwinroque817]

with green plantains, you make tostones! 🔥

[@rgutomo8141]

Listen to the my friend excitement to day👍

[@brianpino7274]

I didn’t kno u had another boat as well

[@DeanSchumacher]

Glad y'all made it home could have been a different outcome if tht boat split more I wonder if there were spider cracks all in tht maybe not but I'm curious if there were any damage before tht happen alot of pressure it takes from hitting those big waves you can get her fixed up in know time I'm wondering if twin vee will wanna take a look they should I'm sure the boats are stronger now being years ago but it shouldn't have happened nice fish y'all got too let us know what comes of the vee if they reach out thnks

[@jboi6049]

Great video, by the way green plantains are best for tostones!

[@jamescammilleri5449]

At 26:44 the guy in the black shirt what kind of grouper is that? My cousin got one a couple months back and could never figure out what kind it was smh!

[@LegoHeadGrady]

The way that deck stretched over the bow… it was asking to get pealed back. Definitely not a well thought out design

[@commonname9205]

Glass that sh¡T back down and keep movin weight...... For reals tho could've been worse glad to know everybody's ok

[@davidtobin9224]

Wait, is that a pearl engagement ring??

[@tylerlee5349]

Do you know of a place down there where one could rent a small boat that a few folks could take out diving like that over there? Planning a trip down there later this year and would like to be able to rent something to go play on like that.

[@troyrockstardad]

Wow, that's insane .so glad you made it back to dock

[@drjimb0311]

Where them grunden tops at boys? Trash bag, gorilla tape quick fix.

[@georgeniebergall7074]

No, I took a look at that boat and kind of wondered will it hold up and rough weather I kind of thought it would not. I mean after all, it’s not a Freeman, but take a look at what I was thinking I was correct don’t go out on a boat that it’s not really well-made cause that should’ve never happened.

[@ricks2907]

Sounds like rodeo fishing. Glad you're all fine. God bless. Thanks Ricky 🇺🇸🙏🎸👩🏻‍🦼🎣💦💥🐈‍⬛🌶

[@cslider]

Twin Vee is not going to do anything. New owners and they aren’t honoring the old companies warranties. Sucks that happened but not a boat I would ever want to own. Good you guys got back safe

[@donnyconny3523]

What brand and model is the boat?

[@markweigel3301]

😎🇺🇸You Know, Back in My Days, We Were Moving Weight Too, But Most of Our Haul Was in Those 2.2 lb Packages (By The Palette Full) 😎🥳🥳🥳🇧🇸❤

[@MRdugger420]

Wow!

[@melissamaivor4414]

Restock on the canary shirts soon?

[@theusconstitution1776]

❤️GLAD YOU ARE SAFE❤️

[@leskobrandon3497]

You should have gotten your hair braided up in corn rows while you were in the Bahamas . 😁

[@JWnFlorida]

Sneaky cut.. 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆

[@MilledSteel]

You look like you’ve got a hell of a tan 😁

[@ermannodibenedetto3064]

I wish i was there😢

[@Rockhead81]

1 thing I've learned From Being On The Water Most Of My Life Is The Ocean Don't Give A Damn About No One Brotha 😳

[@ChrisCokeRobinson]

39:50 That's what she said.

[@Zh-nv4gz]

Nice vid

[@swamplife2413]

tbh she looks like she is your sister !

[@TULUSRECORD]

Good

[@dennishinckley6326]

I got ciguretara from eating yellow jack caught off the reef in the Bahamas. It took months to get over it. I would never eat fish off the reef in Bahamas again.

[@mod_incllc3235]

Even worse they sold those fish to market!

[@Sunbum1947]

If you knew you were taking on water, I can't believe everyone aboard didn't don PFDs, because when s*** starts to go bad at sea, it goes from bad to worse with Mach 1 speed and you might not have had time to don your jackets. As for the hull damage, I think you seriously need to contact a maritime lawyer about suing Twin Vee for shoddy workmanship.

[@lancehenthorn17]

Are you for real! Sue twin vee. That boat is 16yrs old. I would put a lot of blame on the Capitain. 4-6 ft seas doing some where around 25-30 knots/mph. Shit happens. Not the boat manufacturers falt. Tight Lines.

[@danielsalazar8835]

What a poor design Auto pilot in rough conditions is OK However, helmsman should be ready to pull back the throttle if a pitch pole condition develops

[@kevinpaskovich406]

It was not red hot

[@garyritterstrings]

That is a terrible Bow design not made for Ocean rough Seas. Dump it before it kills you.

[@ripptydevibes2581]

That is the worst design nose ive ever seen. Im not familiar with the Cats yet but wtf were they thinking was gonna happen when they mounted a wall in place of a nose??

[@a-perfectcleanwaterdamager6061]

😅 Keep telling me about them saonuki's if you'll buy a American made s*** that won't happen.

[@vincentrussell7246]

What a life u living don't forget to thank the one who made all this possible, Jesus Christ himself, glad you made it through moving weight fishing is one of the best videos out there, thumbs up Bro

[@Doodad2]

That is NOT blackend fish! That is sautéed. Or pan fried.

[@user-kx9rh2md7m]

Let us know what brand of boat it is. That would never happen on a better-made boat. You guys were lucky!!! Watch the weather before you go. That was not even a good idea to go for the tuna, imagine if that would have happened 20 miles north of Walkers Cay. You may not be doing this video. Shit Happens!!!

[@Evan721sxm]

God damn thats crazy

[@n8893v]

Hey guys, so just curious…. Am I the only one who spotted the human skull in this video? And why so many negative comments….

[@hectorherrera1280]

Only two comments let me fix that...

[@gailyoung9911]

THE SEA CAN BE BRUTAL. BRING SOME EXTRA TAMPONS FOR YOUR GINA NEXT TIME.

[@maxxxxxx74]

Glad you made it back safe. This is why im always a little cautious with composite materials. Be it a boat hull or the recent tragedy with Oceangate. There's a lot of benefits to be had with composite materials but in the rare case, they do fail or delaminate.

[@aubreysaunders2381]

😄 'Promo SM'

[@terryfonz4603]

Horrible design! If it’s a twin V the early models were known for coming apart!

[@localflorida2201]

Boat is a piece of s$#@. I'll not buy or recommend it to anyone.

[@troyrockstardad]

That water is amazing

[@agawied2910]

Vegetable oil should only be used for bearings and sex, don’t consume byproduct

[@evecam9703]

thats crazy glad u guys was safe

[@whamady]

This is unwatchable….terrible camera work

[@evecam9703]

those was green platanos the sweet 1s r the yellow 1s
