POLICE YELL AT BOATER IN POINT PLEASANT CANAL! Strong Currents and Waves Cause Trouble for Boats

The current was ripping today in the Point Pleasant Canal -- creating waves and hazards for boaters going under the bridge.
This canal is long, deep, and narrow, making the currents very strong. If you are in a smaller boat, you may have some trouble.
Enjoy as boats go in and out of the canal and pass each other under the bridge.

[@michaelnotigan7796]

5:33--That skipper navigated his Whaler perfectly, staying in the trough, adjusting his speed in order to do so. Well done!

[@Cha-y412]

Thank you for the PP Canal video. I wish you made this video 45 years ago when the 88 and Bridge ave crossings were the original wooden bridges. Now that was a crazy ride. My neighbor back in 1973 had a 35 ft Chris Craft that the bridges had to open for. He was waiting on a Southbound bridge opening and somehow the boat turned sideways and got sucked under the Bridge Ave bridge. He jumped off the flying bridge of the boat a split second before it hit and was ripped off the superstructure. Those were the days. The canal is a piece of cake now. Use your power , bow up, and cruise on thru.

I am the last boat to go under the bridge at the 19-second mark. I felt so bad for the guy in the blue top Sea-Ray. The current coming through the bridge was no joke, and I need to power up. I yelled at him to do the same. My wake was pretty big and swamped him. I made sure he was safe and was ready to turn around if he needed help. Although it's no wake, you have the right to maintain 100% control of your boat at whatever speed it takes. 20-25 kt South wind that day.

I totally get the idea of not wanting someone riding on the bow of a boat thru the canal, and specifically in what is the nastiest section, that guy was safer there at that point then he was trying to move to the stern while pitching and rolling like that. Its bad to have a dangerous situation but worse to make something more dangerous trying to fix the first issue...

[@ShoreBoats]

I agree

[@whdbnrm3023]

i would have declared a Mayday and told the guy to stay in the bow . All in the name of safety

[@alexkitner5356]

@@whdbnrm3023 I don't know that I'd call a mayday since that might elicit an emergency type response from the marine unit and other resources. I would tell the guy in the bow to stay put and if the troopers want to discuss it someplace calm then they're welcome to come have that conversation but my response would be that I'm the master of that vessel and ultimately responsible for the safety of those aboard and therefore I get the final call on what option is best for the well-being of those aboard. If they were to site a law on this it would be section 13:82-1.13 which says "the operator of a vessel shall not allow any person to ride in any position that would endanger life or limb". Thats fairly open ended when it comes to boats and what positions might endanger life or limb. For example, I was trained to keep people from sitting on or doing things near the transom while running, the idea being that if a person gets knocked off the stern and nobody sees it then it may take some time before anyone notices that person isn't down in a berth sleeping or in the head by which point its nearly impossible to know where or when it happened or to render quick aid, but is the transom considered unsafe by this law cause i see plenty of people sitting near transoms. We have all these pontoon boats around now, why aren't they stopping them in the bay when there's kids along the front rail? One slip and not only do they go over but the pontoons will channel them right into the propeller with potentially lethal consequences. In my mind that person moving back from the bow is becoming more endangered and the order is requesting me to at minimum commit a more gross violation of that statute than them being there to begin with.

[@whdbnrm3023]

Great Video, been through that canal 100s of times. I remember going through before the original bridges were replaced. The water got bottlenecked under them and it was like the rapids on the Colorado river.

Currents like these are no joke. That waterway cop is understandably nervous. On a day like this you'd wear a PFD on my boat until we're well clear of the canal and inlet or I'd take you back to the ramp. To be bow-riding with a leg in the water is asking to be dragged overboard where the hull could crack your head, break your ribs or an arm or leg, and you'd still have to avoid the prop. Odds of rescue given the current, an injury, and no PFD are minimal. Even uninjured with no PFD your odds are not good. Wearing a PFD injured or not it could still be a long, difficult rescue. Boats coming in/ out with the current can't just stop in a narrow waterway like this, and they may not be able to avoid you floating in the channel.

[@TheMrLebaron]

The fact someone tried to take a PWC through the canal is insane ( family in NJ via the step dads fam, been through it a few times ) I have a VERY capable 23 Foot Key West Center Console ( built in Florida ) down h ere on the Panhandle and just like the boaters in this vid, despite it having pretty big motors on the back, I would be REALLY carefull taking it through this canal, let alone a PWC

Before the Oyster Creek Power Plant shut down an artificial reef was building at the end of the cooling water canal discharge. The water was about 80 degrees F all year round. We were getting sponges and catching tropical fish. I got a very nice Triggerfish for my saltwater tank. The marine life would make it way up the Gulf Stream after storms. We found a plastic milk crate 20 miles out off the inlet that had fish and seaweed in side it it was overturned an floating. Pleasure boater are the most dangerous. Former USCG.

[@alexkitner5356]

There's a difference between tides in the bay on one end and river on the other so the water flies through there. The ocean doesnt have a big difference at the two inlets but the canal is much closer to the Manasquan while the tide has to work its way from Barnegat thru miles of shallow bay to reach the other end. The tide is always rushing to catch up basically, there's a three hour difference between the Manasquan Inlet and the canal, a full half a cycle, in a two mile distance. When it was first built it changed the dynamics of the water so much that it caused the Manasquan inlet to go dry. The inlet had to be fortified with jetties and then excavated to reopen it.

That's so crazy. The only boat that needs to be in that water is a kayak.

Mr. Big man hanging out of the boat.

Could you imagine trying to get back in through that with a 25 hp motor? On an aluminum Jon boat even?!

If you feel sink and swim

The waters need more policing like this.

[@whdbnrm3023]

Hell no , there is already to much government overreach

[@Skolmann]

The boats going with the tide (in this case the outgoing tide going left to right) always get bounced around more than those going into the tide. Also that section of the canal has some of the worst standing waves.

Anyone else get a sinister vibe with the echoing and the crazy current? lol
