Can I ride behind a 120' House Boat?!

As soon as the 120' houseboat, biggest houseboat on Lake Powell, powered up I asked if I could try foiling behind it because I THINK could ride behind it. AND the Nautique G23 that we had on the trip has a crazy story that you should stick around the end to hear from the family that experienced a death defying road trip towing that same boat!

So glad everyone survived that crash, do you have any more info on what happened with the hitch and how the boat came off?

[@joeroberts337]

So thankful how you always give God the glory. You’ve definitely become my favorite rider bc of that. So thankful this family is safe and God kept them unharmed. Thanks for sharing.

[@gregfreestone2293]

My dad was killed in an accident coming home from Lake Powell 24 years ago. On oncoming driver fell asleep and hit us head on. Our boat came through the back of our truck. It's incredible to see how much stronger and safer vehicles have become. I'm so glad that everyone was ok.

[@Shaun.Murray]

So sorry to hear that Greg

[@pwarren31]

Dang, that's heavy and sad. Super sorry to hear that.

[@jessejlewismeng]

I gotta hit lake Powell one day. Crazy scenery for a FL boy

[@wmullen76]

What a crazy experience! And they still didn't let it ruin their Powell vacation!

[@conorvansmack]

That's an incredible, truly MIRACULOUS story, thanks for sharing!

[@ShreverBeaver]

Wow, wild story! Glad everyone walked away, and the Nauti survived. Ford builds safe trucks for sure. I had a 2015 F150 and was T-boned by a guy in a 2020 GMC that ran a red light at 60mph. Hit me so hard it put me on my roof. I too walked away. The only injury was a small scratch on my left ankle. I went out and bought another F150 and still drive it today!

[@Shaun.Murray]

That's crazy! Landed on the roof?! Walked away. Nuff said 👊🏼

[@gregmullins9206]

That's definitely miraculous, to survive a towing accident on I-17. I've pulled my camper thru there, going back and forth to Albuquerque. There's some treacherous drop-offs. Oh yeah, nice ski video too! 👍

[@__m37]

Amazing group of people

[@Millermix1980]

That is an incredible story. So glad they are ok.

[@LezzGoBrandonRay]

yo shaun!! living it!!🔥🔥 glad theyre all ok an sick boat!!

[@ronaldmoody4766]

Thanks for sharing this amazing family story…and your pull behind the biggest, fastest house boat on Lake Powell.

[@Shaun.Murray]

Thanks for watching Ron!

[@chrissy1310]

Oh my head!!!!! I was checking my notifications while watching a good vid and I clicked on this right away! Behind a 120' !!!! Go Shaun! What a beautiful place! I was just thinking that those red dirt peaks where once filled with water, that is why they look like that. See people!!! climate change is not new! THE NAUTIQUE LIVES ON!!!!!! I am on Lake Dunmore in Vermont and these wake boats are just showing up. They are only allowed to create the wake on the north deep end. We have millfoil challenges. Love it!

[@makuakane7787]

I'm just stoked to see Lake Powell so full after the last couple of years!

[@Shaun.Murray]

Same!

[@Christian-wi6hn]

Your videos are always so cool

[@thisisfun887]

Lake Powell is great. Going again this weekend.

[@Shaun.Murray]

Enjoy your ride! ✌️

[@mattperry7240]

Crazy, that is what you are. Who else would even try it.😮 Awesome and fun content as usual 😂

[@Fordry]

Out of curiosity, what exactly was the failure in the hitch?

[@DaIIas]

If Shaun says “Can I…” I think we all know the answer by now 🤙

[@Shaun.Murray]

😂

[@colehansen188]

Tour of the houseboat!

[@TSDSneakers35]

Look up fastest houseboat on lake Powell, there is one that looks like you could actually get a wave behind it. Full speed on houseboats though burn at least a gallon a minute so I highly recommend cruising at about 2400 rpm

[@Shaun.Murray]

So crazy!

[@paulmacmurray]

Now go for the smallest boat... How many RC boats to get you out of the water?

[@Shaun.Murray]

😂 I like that idea

[@TSDSneakers35]

Knightline is quite a boat, you should show us what the interior looks like

[@TheAir1080]

God is good and has everything under his control what a story and a great ending

[@annoyboyPictures]

Murray, yo have got to come out to Sri Lanka Bro.... It has to be on your bucket list. 🤔

[@Shaun.Murray]

Haven't made it there yet but hopefully one day!

[@annoyboyPictures]

@@Shaun.Murray Make a few episodes out of it. I can do the camera work/editing for free. (I have a small video production house here) It would be an honor. I also have a 20f Yamaha Wake board boat.

[@NottowaySkier]

Amen

[@Shaun.Murray]

And amen

[@lkajiess]

Crazy, when did they up the size limit? I grew up in Page and was actually a rental houseboat instructor haha. I thought the limit was 75'? BTW, been loving this channel and seeing the Lake Powell content! I road a Shaun Murray board back in the day. I met you briefly at a wakeboard competition in Tempe in the early 2000's and you couldn't have been more friendly.

[@Shaun.Murray]

Not sure about size limits. And for sure remember riding at Tempe Town Lake (I think that's what that reservoir was called. Double up contest 👊🏼

[@garrettbodrogi5860]

is that the knightline?

[@thisisfun887]

So what was the hitch failure?

[@jessejlewismeng]

Think so- crazy how everyone made it out okay

[@rattytherat756]

Dang

[@sharirohyans7322]

whaaaaaaaat!!!

[@jemery3]

should have asked the captain to set you up with a double up LOL

[@Shaun.Murray]

The 90 second circle! 😂 I like it

[@e2a2j]

Were they able to figure out what happened what caused the crash? Could they tell what happened to the hitch? Safety chains? I'm glad they were all ok, that's not how it usually works out as the Dad already knew from his time in the hospital.

[@obrsl]

Not perfect, but a cheaper alternative to the new Nautique Paragon 😂

[@Shaun.Murray]

😆

[@carterbaer1994]

Hey I’m 6’5 about 245lbs what size wake board should I ride because I’m just starting to learn the sport right now I’m riding a 150” x 45” liquid force board should I try to find something bigger or is this about the right size

[@carterbaer1994]

Does the size of the board matter when it comes to how much pop you get? Because I’m riding behind a 1993 Malibu echelon with a wake board tower on top. That doesn’t make a massive wave

[@Shaun.Murray]

Def go w the biggest board you can find at 6'5" Not sure what Liquid Forces is but the Hyperlite Murray 150 is the biggest they currently make. More size equals more pop and more stable landings. Smaller wakes are better for learning how to properly get pop.

[@grahamrobins7411]

Does anyone know if you can rent that houseboat? Link or details would be appreciated. 🙂

[@Jack-rk8zt]

No that house boat is family owned it is not up for rent

[@Shaun.Murray]

Good question but Jack is correct

[@grahamrobins7411]

@@Shaun.Murray beautiful! Thanks for the reply. Back in the day, probably 20 years ago, I rolled up to a contest with some buddies in my Suburban with big wheels on it, and you were there and said "Nice truck.." ha. I was like that was Shaun Murray bro - he likes my truck! Been a Nautique guy since the late 80's - keep up the fun videos! Thank you.

[@TSDSneakers35]

Knightline is an owned boat by caden knight

[@kennyholmgren4455]

I think you can ride everything and behind anything

[@Shaun.Murray]

Gonna keep trying!

[@richarddevaottien7724]

Shaun seemed to lull them into slow motion boredom😂

[@Shaun.Murray]

Is that good?
