Driving a 42 Foot Yellowfin 72 Miles from Venice to Naples Florida

Throwing out some different content for yall. I love to boat and want to share my hobbies with everyone. We boated from Venice to Naples in a 2017 42’ Yellowfin. It’s a center console boat built for fishing and family adventures. Powered by 3 Yamaha 350’s we cruised at 30mph in 1-2’ seas and including the no wake zones and refueling, the adventure took us a little over 4 hours dock to dock.
The Sam content has been unbelievable and I know y’all are loving it as much as I am. Lets get some questions y’all have for Sam down in the comments for a video to come.

[@Projectpompeii]

How old were you when you built your first engine & how did it turn out?

[@triplehfarmsllc7348]

What was his career before retiring.

[@LivinLifeinDrive]

How much does he charge for doin a buff job on a Jeep Wrangler. And also mid size cars and trucks.

[@indianaslim4971]

First car?/ever race?/family?/future plans for the shop?/hidden talents?

[@carlg7535]

Can we get Sam to run in the burnout comp?? I want to see him whip the hellcat 😂

[@mannsonthemove2958]

I would like to hear Sam impressions on getting hooked up with you young guys. His history will be very interesting to hear. Met him at the FF, super cool guy!

[@steeveomcjameson8673]

Parker- it doesn’t have to be all car stuff.. it’s cool you mix it up with Your work as a Dentist, The Aviation and now the marine stuff. Keep up the good work and great content.

[@coreystrong4384]

Your diversity and humbleness is awesome Parker. I personally have a lot of respect for you and Garrett for sharing any knowledge you learn along the way. Having Sam on here with his knowledge concretes that whole passion for teaching and learning. Keep up the awesome work

[@briskibriski275]

Sam is the best !! I would like to know in Sam's life who has passed down the most knowledge and life lessons to him, not just car stuff but life in general . Thanks guys , I'm loving the mixture of tye top notch content.

It's Our Florida Man With a Dental Plan! This is a badass boat for Tournament fishing. Teeth, Turbos and Trim! 👍🏼🇺🇸👏🏼

[@Jake-pw8rp]

As a med student, who wants to buy a boat in this range when I become an attending, who loves aviation, and cars your content is the best. Everytime you add a new video is right down my alley. I hope to live exactly your life in the future. Even plan on moving to FL from NY. Keep up the work and the growth will just happen naturally.

“LET’S GROW THIS THING!!” -Sam the Legend

[@valuedhumanoid6574]

I love open ocean boating. My boss has a 60 Carver with two Cummins diesels and a Cummins generator. We took it from Lake Michigan to Miami via the Mississippi and we entered the Gulf at New Orleans. Navigating the locks with these huge barges. Stopping along the way to eat at all these little mom and pop places while fueling....it was so much fun. Making the cut across the Gulf from New Orleans to Naples was our longest straight shot. You are out there hundreds of miles from land in all directions. Nothing but you and your wits to keep you safe and alive. We even tried dead reckoning and using a sextant to plot our position with the stars. We got it to where we were within 14 miles of where we actually were. Makes you appreciate what sailors did before GPS and satellite phones.

[@lukelikens2057]

I'm wondering if Sam want's to be your copilot for sick week if he could handle a week in a race car that would be a sick week indeed 🤔 👍

[@frankrizzo5057]

I think what you, your brother and all the guys and various channels involved are keeping us very entertained. Sam, Can you walk us through a full paint detail from start to finish? Just the steps and what products you like best.

[@mrmongo6722]

I enjoyed fishing fishing when I was up in the San Francisco Bay area. My boat was nothing like yours but I sold my 22 foot deep V cuddy when I moved to the LA area because I had nowhere to store it. I enjoyed every minute we had on it sometimes spending days on it at a time fishing and making memories. You are definitely living the dream on that beast and most people don't realize the love hate relationship with being a boat owner but four hours is still making some time in light the chop. Enjoy the new boat and I'm looking forward to seeing your future videos.

[@berryfranks8363]

Digging the extra content Parker. Always nice to go on a different adventure.

[@burninrubba65]

Those simple little things like teaching your sister in law how to tie a cleat are awesome. I remember my friends dad showed me how to tie off a boat when I was younger. Never owned a boat. Probably never will, but I’ll never forget how to tie one up

[@TheWhatthefuck12]

he did it WRONG learn the right way

[@mikel3162]

@@TheWhatthefuck12 I’m glad someone pointed it out. It was killing me to watch that.

[@alexkitner5356]

Beautiful boat, love the yellowfins. 350s will do the job but 425s would be beast mode- i run a 37 Grady White Canyon with them and its probably a heavier boat despite being shorter and it still pushes 45+. When it comes time to move on from that boat check out the Grady, nothing against the YF but it has a much better interior with a full double wide berth, kitchenette and head even on a shorter hull. Personally I'd trim up a touch just to keep the bow high and sacrifice a touch of speed to keep that big flare from pounding too hard but the 37 I run has a sea keeper so that's kind of a moot point cause it rides like a cruise ship at 25+ punching thru 3-5 foot seas on the bow. We run 100 miles each way here in Jersey to get to the canyon so comfort and flexibility in trim to get better fuel economy is big. One thing about the night vision.... I run a FLIR on the boat and as a firefighter and one thing anyone should remember about the FLIR is that it works by temperature differences so while its a great tool it doesn't make up for running a responsible speed at night and keeping a good watch, lights and electronics dimmed as low as possible and all that you'd do if you didn't have it. If something is floating low out there like a log or a shipping container and its been there for a while it can be pretty close to the same temp as the water. You'll usually see something on the FLIR cause they're very good but not enough or from far enough that you can't end up doing a lower hull delete and thats always a bad day... I do like the boating content and the variety you tend to put out but it would be better if you were pulling big mutton and snowys off the bottom or dragging some hoos for some of those monter gulf yellowfin...lol

[@rogerminter3599]

Y'all are a bunch of rich kids. The pilots licenses, the hot cars, the education. It's not so weird because I grew up with you and yer down to earth, all of you.

[@robertjohnson4784]

Hey brother been following your brother for 5 years or more And now I am following you lol you definitely have grown on me Parker love the content Sam is definitely a added bonus hope your channel does as well as Cleats 2 thumbs up

[@stephenlancaster3785]

As a fellow Florida man on the gulf coast I'm always down for some good boat content.

[@boone172]

That's the reason I watch you and cleetus. I've learned so much from yall I just wish I had the extra money to buy some of yalls merch and cleetus merch. So I'm just a hillbilly that loves race cars and burnouts.! Now about Sam he is awesome I listen to all older folks because if anyone is smart you can learn more from the older generation then text books and That's the truth.

[@michaelmanion795]

Parker I love the different content myself. I am an avid boater and scuba diver and use a Garmin MK2 and they are awesome. Keep bringing the boating and aviation as well as the car stuff your doing a great job. As far as Sam, he is by far one of the best people to come into the family. I would love to hear his story of what he started doing as far as his business and what training he had. He is so knowledgeable on so many things I would love to hear his background. Keep up the great work 🤘🤘🤘

[@bradpeterson7572]

Enjoyed the boat content Parker. Would be cool to see some fishing. You deffinently have a way of sharing what you do. That is fun,entertaining,and so down to earth. Hope you keep having content with Sam(Garrett's channel too) Interesting to see always.

I like the boating content. My boats not that big only a 20ft cc. I use it for duck hunting as well. But we come down from NC 2-3 months out of the year and really enjoying boating and the sandbars between Venice and siesta key. It’s are home away from home and have plans of moving down and it be are forever home one day. Also I wanna see the channel grow idk how it isn’t already l, but I like how you make time too interact with all of us in the comments. Idk where you find the time but it sets you apart from everyone else.. happy New Years Parker too you as well you’re family

[@mrcr125er]

Love the content. As a car guy that’s also spend many many days on large boats, it’s great to see something to change it up. Our family has a home in Naples and in North Carolina on the coast. So fishing and off shore boating is second nature. Very cool to see

He passed away 10 years ago this month and this just hit me hard for some reason. He used to call while he was sitting there fishing and tell me about all the boats passing.
