Hey just ordered the new shirt… I now have all the different styles…. I really like the new one …I was happy to see that you put my name at the end of your video…. Been supporting you a long time… bought all your items like batteries…. Grill etc…. When Amazon gave you a kick back…. Love your channel and it makes me happy to see the places my father and I used to visit when I was younger…. But also sad as many of the reefs are not in the best shape…. Thanks again Cap!! Looking forward to more adventures!

[@jeffreypinder9398]

Cap, you and I are complete opposites when it comes to early mornings. The very first thing I do is start the coffee, wake up and then start breakfast. Lifting the outboard will also create less drag. The weight differential alone makes a difference which makes it difficult to choose which alignment for your set-up. Beautiful aerial footage of Great Isaac Cay and the lighthouse. They look bullet holes @ 23:42. 5.56 and 7.62 cartridges. Minnkota supposedly has a new "Quest" model available. Check it out.

[@OutOnTheReef]

@jeffreypinder9398 Yes, Coffee is a must. I always have coffee in the morning, but I see you get to it first LO. L. And yes Those were bullet holes.I can't believe people would shoot at the lighthouse.They're so inconsiderate, And yes I will raise the engine one more bolt And that should make a little difference and I should get the better propeller that is, for my engine.I will turn it out And it will be better.Thank you for watching captain and see you on the next video navigate safe 👍👍🛥

[@alfonseca9284]

Great video Cap, as usual. Biggest problem was the Minn Kota. It would also be great if your fuel tank held an extra 20 gallon capacity. I know it's nerve wracking when you see that level dropping and you are far from land.I am sure you will figure it out!

[@OutOnTheReef]

@@alfonseca9284 Yes, extra 20 gallons will be awesome, captain, but I will come up with a solution soon.Captain, thank you so much for watching and understanding my frustration and see you on the next video.Captain navigate safe

[@frankhurricane965]

We painted this lighthouse in 2008. Had so much fun in Bimini. This is when they were doing contruction on that big hotel development over there. Lovely trip, met girls had a blast on the island. Definetly overdue for a return to Bimini and the nearby Great Isaac Lighthouse. So much history there its kinda spooky.

[@OutOnTheReef]

wow cap what a job to paint the lighthouse and we see that it needs another coat of paint cap , hopefully you will get the job again 👍

[@raisingcane225]

Hi Cap, in you fuel calculations, are you adding in a contingency reserve to how much you need? If not, you should. Changing sea state, a mechanical issue, encountering another boater who needs help, things like that do happen and a reserve should be accounted for. For example, if you lose a single coil pack to the engine, or worse, two or more, and don’t have spares aboard and/or the means to diagnose and replace the dead coil pack, your fuel economy will absolutely nose dive. Not trying to be overly critical, and you are obviously very aware of your fuel burn state, but I don’t recall in prior videos you building in a reasonable contingency reserve.

[@OutOnTheReef]

at fist i was not counting on my reserve but at the end of the video yes, i usually have a 30% reserve but this new engine im trying to make some adjustments , in this trip i ended up with 18% fuel reserve , i know that is very low but in the next trip i will be more prepare cap , thanks for looking out for me cap.

[@keithrose1]

Hey not sure you how much you have watched out of the reef but this guy is a safety nut. you can bet he knows how much gas he needs to have to include reserve. I totally agree with you but you wont catch out on the reef in a bad situation. I have been following him since he was sleeping on the floor of a Yamaha Jet boat. Now those were the days! lol

[@raisingcane225]

@@keithrose1 I’ve only been watching for about a year. It’s obvious he is keenly aware of safety issues - always wearing the life vest with PLB, VHF, etc when under way or about to be, always looking at weather conditions - as is and projected. It’s just that I don’t recall him mentioning a reserve into his fuel calculations before. Don’t get me wrong, this is absolutely GREAT content and he knows his stuff.

[@eliemasry7814]

You should be cutting through waves much better, propoising seems a serious problem, tough ride indeed!! Sure though that you will investigate this thoroughly and solve the problem. Great trip captain !!

[@steverichmond9157]

Agree, its hard to tell as a viewer, but it seems the Crooked Pilothouse is riding a bit higher and lighter at the bow than in past episodes.

[@OutOnTheReef]

@@eliemasry7814 I agree with you, captain.It looks like the boat is not writing good.But I will raise the engine up more and see what it does.And I'll keep you updated captain thank you for your suggestion

[@OutOnTheReef]

@@steverichmond9157 Thank you, captain, and you could be right.I will adjust the height of the engine To see if it improves and also maybe a new propeller that is the right one

Great stuff Skipp, I'm sure you are already thinking this but a Jack Plate would help with the fuel management. Hope all is well with the homestead

If you wanna stop the proposing, use your trim tabs or trim up your engine. Either one will save you fuel economy, and speed will increase.

[@DixieSwampman-ce4bx]

I recomond a jack plate and automatic trim tabs. I bet you will get much better economy. The jack plate maybe 12" setback on the motor. Get the boat to level out a bit flatter. You seem to be very bow high.

[@OutOnTheReef]

very true cap i will keep figuring this out , i will raise the engine 1 more bolt to see how it rides cap and in my other boat i had a hydrofoil and it help a lot , the jack plate is a great idea but it will put more stress in my transom, thanks cap.

thanks Cap. the Prop Clear is to give viewers awareness and safety before they start their engine, some viewers had thank me for making them aware of how important is to clrea the passengers from the prop before starting, thanks for being part of my channel cap.

Prop clear is like his trade mark! He has to say it or it wouldn' t be the same. Just like when he eats something and says "uuumm Really good" Its his signature lines we all look for.

Saying “ I hope this fuel lasts” is the first sign to stop and get more fuel. Maybe I’m just conservative, but the difference between 1.9 making it, and 1.6 not making it is too close for my comfort. Nice trip otherwise.
