MASSIVE MISTAKE AT HAULOVER INLET ! | Boats vs Haulover Inlet

[@goutvols103]

Your addition of drone footage has greatly added to the quality of your videos.

[@rustbucket9318]

Yacht had an unlucky double up wave form at the bow. Sweet footage of the carnage.

[@chasbodaniels1744]

Big surprise to see that Azimut 62 get a free deck rinse on their fly bridge for crying out loud. Great footage for sure.

[@garyeaton5719]

It didn’t look the Aizmut had any trim applied. That was a great catch to get stuff from bow and stern. That water just raced up the windows to soak the fly bridge passengers.

[@dwrabauke]

I once saw a very tiny rubberboat doing this, a man with his woman, and I thought they would capsize or get flooded, but nothing of this sort happened. The guy maneuvered the boat like a boss, not even bumping it too heavy, so his lady had the smoothest ride I had ever seen on this inlet. I think it was also on this channel but I can't find it anymore.

[@garystone7062]

Power is nothing without control. These silver-spoon morons will never realize that.

[@Nubs1981]

That drone footage is awesome 👍👍

[@brianwideman2342]

Steve Potts (Scout boats) cares more about the integrity of his boats than there popularity. A master of his trade.!

[@bonnieketterman6542]

I love watching these fun boat videos they are so fun to watch

[@TheGtk444]

Love the commentary! Funny

[@ChefKevinRiese]

I have a 55 ft twin engine diesel boat. How can I trim the boat without any trim tabs?

[@tl3139]

Love the drone shots!

[@robertroy1878]

Loved the commentary!

[@DamirB423]

Love the drone view

[@Ballsyone]

Those big Scouts are my favorite CC!!!

[@glados4765]

This young guy took his dad's contender 35, he ran it right a coral head by the reef (Exumas, Bahamas). That happens all the time. About once a week someone is running into the pilings, marina rocks wall, or the reef.

[@mrelusive8038]

man it doesn't matter how big you are - the ocean always wins! - RE that fly bridge on azimut LOL

[@CUBICUB]

I enjoy your commentary

[@LumiaScience]

I really like your format with the narration. You make it fun to watch, thanks.

[@Joseph-ig2bm]

Don’t know much about boats, but am learning. Vids are great! Thanks

[@planetcaravan2925]

Best commentary

[@roverporter2434]

I'm watching this from Frozen Wisconsin and I really need spring to arrive quick

[@trezndawg4240]

I like the boats vs. waves videos. I'm finding myself calling the rounds, LOL!

[@ramenadventure]

Does America (Florida) have any life jacket laws? Here in Japan it’s mandatory.

[@jonvitka6984]

Is that in Clearwater Florida?

[@hamiam2243]

Another great video 👍💯

[@rollinontwojohnny3586]

The Scout my young friend… looks the Cap had the engines trimmed way out and so, it brought the bow way up. Wide hull on these.

[@pedalwithus]

is that Azmith the same one that almost sank a few weeks back?

[@UncleRoots413]

Broke the window on that fly bridge 2:12

[@formattester6]

The exceptional video quality plus the very excellent camera operation is OFF THE CHAIN!!! Damn! Just gorgeous! ALSO...thank you for not putting annoying music in most your videos. I could watch this stuff all day long. Can i ask what video camera your shooting with? How far away are you from the passing boats? 15x 20x zoom? Thank you for such great work!

[@sitchad]

It's amazing how many people seem to love hull slaps. It's a good way to crack the hull.

[@billmadison2032]

What is that thing mounted to the Azimut swim deck?

[@markshutt1476]

These older boats had the passer rail/crane set up like this. This would have the fixed swim platform, so it would not raise/lower the tender or jet ski. Passer rail for when Mediterranean moored, stern in to a quay wall, or anytime you were using the stern to come and go.

[@stuartcrabbe9854]

It's a passerelle aka gangplank for boarding the boat when she is moored stern in

[@blackhillsrider2626]

Great channel. I have to ask are you from Del, Eastern PA, S NJ? You have a distinctive long O in your pronunciation common to those areas.

[@jetrex1986]

What type of drone do you have?

[@proton9551]

how far out are the turbulence? looks like not just the inlet.

[@metube9541]

Just imagine making a complete arse of yourself and then spotting a drone so everyone across the world can laugh at you. Brilliant, keep it up.

[@pezpengy9308]

monterey was an autoloss because their training wheels were out, plus the dragging line.

[@johnnunn8688]

Fenders outboard too 🤦‍♂️.

[@philipstaite4775]

I hope BG accounts for the two different kinds of u-turns. For example, if I ever win the lottery (snort, yeah, right...) I'd end up in Miami with a yacht at some point. I'd probably try to be smart about it - take it out only on calm days at first. Then work up through more and more challenging conditions. On a day like this, I might be out there running the inlet half a dozen times or more each way figuring out the best way to handle it. Hey, aircraft pilots practice - "shoot touch and goes" and such, why shouldn't boat captains too? What I mean is, there's a difference between a "nope" u-turn and a "let's run that again but with a bit more trim..."

[@hamletksquid2702]

This would actually be a really good place to teach yourself, if someone had the common sense you're talking about. Most of the guys doing U-turns don't know how to do that, either.

[@vasarian]

The Scout is built for the inlets! Up here in Cape May harbor you see a number of them.

[@SuperWooba]

This cold wave is gonna make it all the way down to Miami. I look forward to see how many boats are out on those three super cold (for Miami) days.

[@jimbluebaugh6090]

We go walleye fishing on "cold" days like that on Lake Erie! Lol!

[@finster444k]

The Scout’s Hull is made for that Inlet.

[@mrh3578]

The 3rd boat should be a loss due to the dragging bow line and the flopping fender. Stow that shit properly when you leave the docks.

[@ranger2316]

Yeah, that and the cruddy hull. That's a cardinal sin in my book.

[@nodayatthebeach]

Scout has his motors trimmed perfectly.

[@visiondigitizing2191]

Challenge with sea 🤩

[@riff2072]

1:00 Nice boat.

[@westcoastrippers9862]

Nice video pretty rough

[@risingwind8943]

I notice that the catamarans with the sharp bows do really well at Haulover.

[@theWZZA]

#3 - if you didn't get the footage of the U-turn, then it didn't happen.

[@kevinhupe3116]

If you go out for the day then EVERYBODY does a U-turn at some point. Just a matter of how far away you are

[@drdylanman]

Watching all of those people on the bridge of that 62 footer get soaked by that wave was priceless, and all I could say was "bwa ha ha ha ha ha"! haha How are you getting those wonderful front-view shots? Is there a drone out there filming, too?

[@RobertMertensPhD]

There's no sound on this video on Linux Firefox. H.265 not supported. Terminated at 40 seconds.

[@davidwarren4569]

That place always seems to have an outgoing tide and an onshore wind contributing to the wild conditions or does the producer just wait for those conditions just to give him the material?

[@Timesend]

🔥🔥

[@marc1sa90]

Big sea out today ! Lets go to sea family 😂

[@Steve-lo8pb]

Curious as I have never had a yacht. Can they trim those up?

[@Bobcagon]

Click bait. No massive mistakes.

[@mattkemp3727]

@2:00 surely wave of the year ? yeah ?

[@Hyestar]

How the hell did you get all those angles on that 62 foot boat? wild

[@TempleTonne]

cool boats

[@MiMMiMMiMMiM]

SCOUT is really a great boat !

[@johncole3473]

One thing I notice. No one is ever wearing a PFD, even videos with children hanging on.... Great camera work here.

[@LeftBack]

So much better with the sound off

[@racketman2u]

yep, loses all the melodrama!

[@TheSolver-PR]

If the sea is always like this, what is enjoyable about this if chilling out is the purpose?... The fridge, storage, prepared meals are going to be a mess.

[@bigbob1699]

I did not see one life vest on anybody. That inlet should have a hell of a body count.

[@chadchadchadchadchad]

Nerd!!!

[@cgirl111]

Ask anyone who does delivery Azimut is bow heavy and has to be given time to go up and over rather than power through.

[@johngunther6333]

So what was the massive mistake?

[@nosegrindv4951]

Hi, i've watched lots of videos of Haulover, and read all the comments. All I read and hear is criticism, but nobody explains the right way to navigate this. Can anyone please explain the correct thing to do here? thanks!

[@mkp3824]

Either that Azimut captain messed up, or they're just not good sea boats, because he should be able to cut through that. Those big yachts really aren't great sea boats, not like a sport fish, or a Hunt, Grand Banks, MJM, etc.

[@marvindebot3264]

Azimuts are not poor seaboats, he stuffed up.

[@mkp3824]

@@marvindebot3264 he did something wrong.

[@BurchellAtTheWharf]

That Amar yacht should be called quote The double stuffed Oreo

[@final_mile_music9713]

Nothing says ‘inexperienced and unqualified’ more than leaving a line and fenders out.

[@leongt1954]

I bet the owner of the Azmut had a lot of broken dishes to replace

[@joelmontgomery8295]

Try the Coos Bay ,Ore. Bar over haul is nothing!

[@IusedtohaveausernameIliked]

That was fun but where's the "massive mistake" that I came for?

[@MadCow999]

That one guy who had his bow line dragging should count as a loss for the boats. If the line is long enough, it can get wrapped in the prop.

[@jeromewalton5553]

I watch this channel out of curiosity, but can’t help but think how distracting it is to have a drone flying in front of you and filming.

[@ericmabry1834]

#3 fender out and trailing a dock line - automatic loss

[@johnnunn8688]

#3 has a line off the bow and fenders out because the skipper is useless/careless.

[@WilliamConnell-si9cw]

Only a few rules at Haulover....first rule - BG calls it as he sees it. Second rule - see Rule #1.

[@motaz1975]

big issue with todays hull design is more about style then actual sea keeping ability.

[@roadie3124]

Yes. I agree. Most people would expect that the small, open boats would have more problems than the big stuff like the one @1:55. But when you've spent most of your life around boats, you understand that it's not necessarily so. I was very fortunate to make a good friend at primary school who's father was a master mariner and a WW2 Royal Navy destroyer officer. I absorbed some wisdom from spending holidays with his family. I live in a whale and dolphin watching town on the east coast of Australia. I've seen 60 to 70 ft planing hulls for sale at the main marina that I wouldn't feel safe on outside of the harbour. One of the design themes that I've seen a lot of is large waterline windows, no doubt to provide light in the cabins and a nice view for the occupants when they wake up in bed.

[@thisisthetruth-f6w]

Nothing about boating in that looks enjoyable

[@lttruck2973]

Army Corp of Engineers must have a hard on for the users of this inlet

[@mrphil4085]

Most of the boats I see don't take in consideration the white caps and the condition of the wind or the sea. They just have a canoe and go out !

[@chrisgilevski8317]

No life jackets ?

[@harbor.boundary.flight]

And not a single life jacket in sight 😂

[@daleramboslatter7729]

Where was the massive mistake?

[@deepspire]

That last boat looks like the hill is cracked.

[@emmapeel8163]

2nd boat was ridiculous

[@jimbluebaugh6090]

Can't believe a 62 footer took a wave up on the bridge!

[@slimwellie]

Why does no one wear a life jacket?

[@rogerl7533]

OH NO!!!

[@civicdutynews4617]

That second boat looks like it was riding low in the water.

[@WhiteDragon689]

I've been through that on a jetsky. The only way to make it is to gun it and glide on top. If you slow down you DIE!

[@PropagandaFacts]

Still was 4 to 1...it's kinda sketchy when the footage didn't make it.

[@thomaserdmann7446]

The heavy Old pro lines do good in the rough ocean

[@robertfish4052]

So now we're not gonna need a bigger boat?

[@JPLOgunquit]

Round 2, they actually broke the bridge glass port side

[@alessandrobacci2186]

Most of those boats are not designed for rough seas. Look at the chine line and you’ll understand. Size doesn’t matter

[@michaelwilkinson2928]

15 mph on shore wind - where's the fun in powerboating in such seas?

[@keyfinder257]

Small boats should not be pitted against large boats. It's not fair. The contest needs weight classes. Or length.

[@martinruddell2682]

"I'm not doing it on porpoise."

[@Estabonbon]

Obviously these boats and yachts are sweet yet I wouldn't do that to AMAR lololol :P just saying.. no way lol

[@walterkersting9922]

If you can’t plane, why not slow down?

[@Sgt.mac86]

Im wondering if the fact that so many bumpers have not yet been stowed while these boats are getting underway has any correlation to the lack of control some of these captains are having over their crafts

[@Awol991]

Not professionals. Not detail people.

[@kathylovesmk]

It seems like it should be Haulover vs. the Captain, not the boat. You've shown all different size boats make it with an experienced Captain.
