I think anyone in Haulover Inlet is certifiably insane so Captain Middlefingers tantrum doesn't surprise me. It's his world, and we're all just living in it. Let's hope that Old Captain Acttoughformyfreinds doesn't do this to Captain Temperwithagun. Or he could end up Captain Bottomofthesea.

[@getonlygotonly]

a little haulover trivia question how much dope do you have to bring through haulover from the Bahamas to get one of those boats with 5 merc 500R's pushing it around?

[@harleyhawk7959]

apparently tons.

[@billschafer9668]

Only boats 20’ and less are required to have a capacity rating. That said many bigger boats also will have a manufacturer capacity tag but is really just a recommendation. It’s the captain’s responsibility to insure the boat is not overloaded, equipped properly and is responsible for the passenger’s safety. My boat is rated for 8 but I never have more than 6 people on the boat.

[@allenarneson4349]

Yes that capacity rating was a 1972 law. But I know some boats under 25 foot but over 20 foot have those ratings. BTW - Do the math. Those rating are estimated at 150 lbs per person. So do your calculations accordingly. ALSO the Capacity is rated with gear. So ice chests, skis, and other misc stuff reduces the safe limit of people on the boat.

[@jimmiller5600]

I'm more of a "18 people? Are there really 18 flotation devices?"

[@Elementalism]

Our 30 foot pontoon has a capacity rating on it, 14 people.

[@VangoghsDoggo]

Capacity rating is actually not a recommendation. If your boat says 8-12-or 20, if you are one person over, the USCG can board you and they will write you a citation. They love nothing better than boarding you and going through every little detail on you and your boat. The more violations, the better. The water is their domain, not the state. They also cover certain inland waters.

[@mtadams2009]

I think the performance boats with the inboards look so much better than the boats with a bunch of outboards hanging off the back. The outboards completely destroy your look of the boats. It’s all the young people know so I guess it does not matter. The inboards also sound completely bad ass.

3:41 in many Countries too many ppl on board gets you a hefty fine and a suspended boating license (sometimes depending on the circumstances the license can be even revoked). The fact that ppl in the USA can just get on a boat and sail without having to do any kind of training and testing is beyond insanity.

[@harleyhawk7959]

all boaters in the have to take test. still it doesn't mean they have boating sense .​@@Willheheckaslike-d4h

[@harpintn]

It depends on the size of the boat. Small craft are pretty much open to any adult. Larger vessels do require that a licensed captain to be on board.

[@bySaverio]

@@harpintn in Europe pretty much everything with an engine and/or length overall bigger than few meters requires a boating/sailing license. Also in many European Countries only the Navy can issue these licenses which makes it even harder to obtain one. The Navy doesn't goof around when testing candidates and my guess is this is the exact reason why we don't see this kind of behavior in European ports and inlets. I'm sure in other parts of the World they are not so strict with safety protocols and maritime knowledge... but at what cost?

[@harpintn]

@@bySaverio I seldom hear of a boating accident in my area, but I also realize that lakes and rivers are not as dangerous as the ocean ( I am a few hundred miles from the ocean). We do have boating rules and regulations, as well as people that patrol the water. If you are operating a boat you are expected to know and follow those regulations.

[@robertjones3406]

I have to agree with this Area of ater that the one thing missing is a speed limit. Larger Boats will always bully the smaller ones and more so when speed is invoved. I honestly do think how even most Boat drives need a Pshyc teste on there ablity to even make a decision as to show any type o considertion to others. There is one other thing i feel adds to this Dangious area is the Design of most of the boats being all open at the very front and place for a wave to come on board and sink you .

Using a phone while boating. in truth it depends on what you are doing, and how often you are scanning. Smaller boats may not have the same "navigational" equipment as larger boats have access too. Some boaters instead use phone based apps and gps mapping. So if you are scanning properly, then checking your nav maps for, it should be no different then having your nav maps on the dash.

​@@markguerin701technically I don't believe there is such a thing as outbound lane or path. For standard rules of the road the middle finger captain had right of way as he was in the forward starboard of mr moneybags.

[@Nostrildamas65]

@@1Carjunkie We don’t really see that Captain Middlefinger was on the give way side of the outbound boat. The telephoto lens can mess with the separation we perceive on the video. Even so, if the outbound boat started as the give way vessel he may have assumed there was no conflict and would pass behind the other boat (seeing a change in relative bearing). But did the other boat turn to port, in to the inlet? When one boat is required to give-way, the other boat is supposed to stand-on (yes there are reasons a stand on vessel may have to change course or speed). I got the feeling that Capt MF was just being a little bitch - at the end of that clip it looked they’re telling the next boat to slow down or something. Out in a rough and busy waterway, and wants everyone else to accommodate him. Could be totally wrong - we don’t se the entire scenario so I’m guessing.
