“Gangster shit” Shawn and I were dying 🤣🤣🤣🤣 -Amy E
THANK YOU for catching that line! It is the single best line ever used in any of my 100+ videos… hahahaha Tracy is always willing to do gangster shit…
@@BobBroeking hahahahaha
Bob thanks for showing us the treasures florida has to offer
Your welcome, I am glad to be able to provide the platform to share these sights.... thanks for watching!
Home of "for the people". Morgan & Morgan has burned that statement into my head... 🤣
Bingo!!!!!! I did not want to name anyone's house specifically in the video but I knew Floridians would know whose house that was! Kudos to you and thanks for watching! Bob
I lLOVE that Morgan guy, even tho he's a big liberal dem, he gave us medical m. LONG LIVE MORGAN!
beautiful! thank you for uploading 😎👍🏼
Well you are very welcome....thanks for tuning in! Bob
Ahhh jetskis…..the Harley Motorcycles of the open water.
Thanks for watching …. I used to ride Honda’s … St1100 and Goldwing…
It was a great experience but a very short ride, thankfully we had a backup plan to ride somewhere else afterwards.The canals are very impressive and I would go again some day.
you mileage guys......! come Thursday... you can lead until you get your fix! 🙂
Love the canal system connecting the lakes, that must make for a fun trip.
Yes in our view it is all about the canals on this chain; beautiful homes and nice water round it out! thanks for watching!
That lunch box is Gansta 🤣🤣 👍
Exactly... what I tonight also! Thanks for watching! Bob
you know some great place to ride. I dont know ion my body could do the across state trip in a day but you do great for a 40 year old 😎 I have only ridden in the intercostal and the ocean. I heard there were great places in land. we have our New Jersey trails but nothing like that. this year we move there for the winter 🙏🏻🌴
Thanks for watching and I am glad you’re enjoying watching some of my videos… appreciate you commenting you will Emory riding down here all winter soon! Bob
Great video as always.
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And thanks for watching! Bob
I absolutely loved the chain of lakes when I went... We stayed at lake Roy. Rented a house right on the lake and it had a boat ramp there as well. .. We took a 26 foot cabin cruiser and BARELY made it under the bridges and through the locks lol :D
Thanks for watching; that big of boat would be a tight squeeze!!!!! Its a beautiful chain; I have done a video for every major chain in Florida if you are interested! Bob
Any of you guys near Jacksonville? I beed advise on sorting out my old ski that I purchased and I would LOVE to do some ski tours around our beautiful state!
We are not! And a mechanic i am not! ha! There ae lots of beautiful places to ski up there by you, enjoy! ua-cam.com/video/fzldxfVs32s/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/IatLFbuyZB0g/v-deo.html
I'm in Hudson and ready to get off the canal. I need to buy a ski already to go out and have some fun on the water again.
Great Hudson is a perfect stepping out location…. Thanks for watching and commenting! Get that ski! Bob
Looks very cozy and beautiful. =0)
Cozy? Hahahahahha. Thanks for watching boondockspwc guy! Bob
I like your new shirt!
Had to go back and look which one it was.... its an old won that I normally wear in the winter for some reason....🙂
Those canals are so quaint. It reminds me of a lazy river at a water park
Yes its pretty picturesque.... fun to go early and have them to yourself as you go between lakes... 👍 thanks for watching. Bob
Check the transducer setting on your Lowrance. I've had the same issue. Every now and then they will auto select a different type of transducer, causing minor issues
nope, it was the brightness. When you accidentally hit the stand by mode its game in bright sunlight to get it out of the standby mode....which I did when I got home... hahahaha
Enjoy your content. Thinking of buying a set of skis for wife and me. Now in the 55 and over crowd. We live on the lake and have boat and kayaks . Looking to see what kind of adventures you can have with a ski. Thanks.
Great, we sold our two person Hobie kayak when we bought the ski; room for both in adventures but not the garage....:-) Thanks fr watching!
It's been a nice investment that's for sure. Mine is even powerful enough to pull me skiing
Live in dunnellon, hadno idea. Gotta go, thanx!
Exactly; head down to Winter Park and do it; recommend a weekday!
@@BobBroeking oh thanx! Enjoy life, buddy, it sure looks like ya are! Ha!
Log Flume - not Plume 😂😂 - but other than that, great video as always. I’m not that much of a lake guy, but occasionally - sure. Rivers, Gulf, Atlantic, for sure though
I saw that… my friends know it’s called “Bob Speak”. … you should see my texts that I dictate and do not proof …
😂😂 - all good
My family wants to move to Orlando 😊!!
There is a lot of traffic there! Hahaha. Thanks for watching! Bob
Loved video!! How deep would you say the canals are ?
Thank you for watching; they were 4-6' deep most places. New video being released tomorrow at 8:00 am. Bob
Did Butler and Conway chain-o-lakes in Fall 2019.
Tell me about Conway Chain! Thanks for watching. I think Butler is our favorite. Bob
lol! My wife works for "For the People"
He has a nice house but what I remembered most is the nice lawns and sculptured shrubs leading down to the lake! :-) Thanks for watching and for the comment! Bob
Me and fam would like to ride with you guys on some lakes and rivers
Thank you for watching. I put all the data about the ramp etc in the written description that allows anyone to repeat these rides. Pick one and go have some fun! Be safe! Bob
Bob, what kind of shirt are you wearing in this? Looks great
The orange one? It is a rash guard/fishing short made by Loco Skaile. Picked it up in a local Florida clothing store a few years ago. thanks for watching!
@@BobBroeking looks great my man! Binging all your content right now haha 😂
Bob.. I am new to Florida and just bought a 2021 FX HO cruiser. I would like to become a member of your jet ski group and do some touring and trips with you guys. How do I get in touch with you??
John: Welcome to Florida and congrats on buying a 21 FX...it is a great machine. Some of the best ways to meet other riders is to join some of the Florida centric jet ski groups on Facebook. There you will meet other riders and have a chance to do trips around Florida with the different groups. Then, f you like smaller groups, you find some riders you like on those groups and plan private rides.
I do not do group rides and the best way I can assist you is by putting out videos of places I go. Each video has the ramp information and a map of the route so you can repeat any of my trips and learn from my mistakes... :-) A lot of that information is in the video written description on YT. If you are not an experienced skier, start slow and build your experience base in different types of water and situations. Thanks for watching and reaching out. Bob
everything's cool until you see Carrot Top with a jet attached to some skis
Exactly….thanks for watching and commenting! Bob
Watched to see how 🤔 you all treat other water users - but it was DEAD on those lakes!
In the keys, all my jetski interactions have been negative 😪 - lots of credit card captains trying 🙄 😒 to swamp us on the water.
Well if this is the first video you have watched of mine, you need to know I am a very respectful skier, I never ride in large groups, I obey all /most safety laws, and speed is not my thing...adventure is... Also I am an early riser and we specifically started this tour early before the commercial tour boats started so we have the canals to ourselves. That is a theme you will see in many of my videos. Thanks for watching and commenting! Bob PS: Newest video here: ua-cam.com/video/or-IDw2fVIk/v-deo.html
Oh wow some of those places were beautiful. Today it must be brutal to even find some insurance company willing to insure you. It must cost a fortune to insure it if you can.
Are you referring to the houses? I am slightly confused. They are protected from hurricanes to a big degree being in the middle of the state Thanks for watching and commenting!
How deep are those canals?
The main lake connecting canals were about 4' deep. hanks for watching and commenting! Bob
Can you take other smaller crafts like canoes and kayaks on those canals
Thanks for watching and yes those canals are open to all forms of watercraft. Bob
@@BobBroeking wow thanks for responding so fast that is awesome to hear loved the video
Mexican petunias or Ruelia!
You tell me!.... I just know I like them... thought they were Mexican petunias like I had two summers ago - love those flowers that bloom new each morning! Thanks for watching and commenting! Here s the latest video: ua-cam.com/video/or-IDw2fVIk/v-deo.html
@BobBroeking they are so pretty, I'm in Gainesville and I have pink, white and purples. I often see them growing wild around the creeks here too. Some call them ruelia, some call them Mexican Petunias. Home Depot has them.
This really looks like alligator water to me
I am sure they are there but this is a very sedate lake alligator wise than places we normally go..l as I told another subscriber I would swim in these lakes all day long… thanks for watching. Bob
No way.. I'm not even putting my toes in that lake. LOL. But I understand, it's what your are familiar and comfortable with. I'm out in the Gulf all the time and I know we seen sharks. I love your videos and really dig how much time spend out on the water.
@@jig1056 thanks for the comments! Bob
Watching you guys constantly fuck around with the intakes just solidified myself never going fresh water. Coast or nothing.
okkkkkk Thanks for watching... Not sure exactly what you mean... I have been stuck with clearing intakes in Salt water in the Gulf (seagrass) much more than any freshwater water...
@@BobBroeking No way! I never have to clean intakes in salt water, never.
Bravo awesome video 👌👍 '"stupid gansta crap"😅😅
Thank you for the watching. Tracy and Danny always doing crazy ganster crap!!!! …. New video is out, check the channel for JOCASSEE!
@@BobBroeking Sure thing. I subscribed and everything, Thank You 🙌
I find it interesting that older people always buy Yamaha over the more reliable Kawasaki’s or better riding seadoos
By older, you must mean wiser.
Love this comment. I share the reasons I bought this machine in this video: ua-cam.com/video/5MMh0zLP__M/v-deo.html and with 300 hours and 4 years of trouble free riding it seems like a great choice for me. I also wanted a ski that would not sink. If I can find a channel with old people riding skis I will ask this question and see what they say! Thanks for watching and commenting. It is probably my favorite comment of all time. :-) Bob
I live in winter park
You have some Great Lakes to enjoy… thanks for watching! Bob
Invite us over shit lol
Hahahahha! Thanks for watching
Im coming to florida to tow my jetski with my honda

Anywhere along those lakes you could work for years! hhahahha Rainbow river in a national treasure, not just a Florida treasure! Thanks for watching ! Bob

@@JimNelson-kw5le no way on my speech! hahahaha... I have not lived in Indiana since 1980....🙂
See any gators?
Saw zero gators on this trip....! thanks for watching! Bob
Im suprised there's not more gators
Probably not as many in this chain as other more wild ones, but assume they are there as always… they don’t bother anyone. Thanks for watching! Bob
@@BobBroeking yeah from what I've learned over my travels they have the fear of human ingrained in them from their over hunted days even a big 40 year old gator was kinda scared of us and his head was as big as me
Florida charges for EVERYTHING…
Iactually do not find tis to be the case; cost of living very inexpensive here. Thanks for watching!
A lot of 4000 and 5000 square feet homes but not one is 50,000
You need a bigger tape measure…. ! 4000-5000 are a dime a dozen I agree! The space couples house is 40,046 square feet - $33M…. A little shy of 50,000 but close for narration in the fly! Ha… Thanks for watching!
Flume, not plume
Thank you for watching and commenting although you are exactly 211 days too late with that comment if you read above.... it is called "Bob Speak"... :-) hahahhaha
Those lakes are gator infested.
Every body of water in Florida has alligators… I have never bothered them and they have never bothered me. I would swim in these lakes all day long… they are about as sedate as they come alligator wise… compared to the other 95% of my rides … ha. Thanks for watching and commenting… I appreciate it. Bob
Apparently you have never been on the chain of lakes I seen 1 alligator in the 20years working an boating on that lake
Assume you are replying to the original poster… agree. Thanks for watching! Bob
