Boats in the BIGGEST Waves I've Ever Seen at Haulover Inlet

[@ED-es2qv]

My dad used to take me out over the surf in a 17ft open bow 55hp. I told him once my friends dad said that boat had no business in the ocean. My dad said, “eh, look what the big boys are all dragging behind em in case thier fancy boat can’t handle it”. We survived, although I’m not sure it was a good idea.

[@michaelrichartz3615]

Much cheaper...Better on gas, runs better, ton of storage space , cheaper maintenance etc with that Yamaha all the way back would still have about same waterline and usually faster not that I think they are looking for speed in that boat..

[@bobditizio9466]

[@jackheeney9442]

1:46 was the best driver hands down

[@mycroft16]

So, from watching a whole bunch of these out of fascination, it seems like coming in is an exercise in "surfing" the ocean swells moving up the inlet. Especially if you're going against a lowering tide. Going out seems to be more about keeping your speed from getting out of control and keeping the bow from going too high or too low. Oh, and not killing your crew when you go flying and smack back down.

[@richfishing92]

[@battlehymn6389]

It was broken ... they don't typically belch that much black smoke, and it looked odd going out and coming back. Might have been a survey run ... I know there are at least two for sale in that area. Hull needs a little care given to it too.

[@dalcallcenter2879]

it was loosing propulsion..run then stop,run then stop,something was wrong with it...

[@bluecollar58]

It looked like he was timing the wave , the boat actually stayed pretty level compared to others , and black smoke is exactly what you want to see when you accelerate hard on a diesel engine , It is probably better to charge in though , if you time it wrong or you do have a mechanical problem half in , you would be in trouble.
