Check this out, up North the ice fisherman who stay out on the ice when spring comes around wouldn't listen when they are told to bring the shanty in, the Coast Guard is now charging those folks if they have to be rescued. Ain't a cheap Sunday night dinner either...
ADAM... First - Thanks again for stressing safety in boating. Second - How fortunate are we to have the US Coast Guard standing by to respond at a minutes notice, the USGS are bad ass!!! Amazing how millions of dollars of equipment and highly trained pro's that love what they do are right there when we need them..
This happened to my husband and his friends as they were skiing back from Catalina ski broke down as they were tugging 1 so 2 in total . It got dark and were lost at sea thankful to CG!!
I got my gtx seadoo 170 and love it. I was on center hill lake TN. I try it out and had a blast. For safety there were plenty of boats around. I may bring my sos Bivy stick. Cell service is ok. I been thinking of a wetsuit for colder riding do I can run longer in the year. I type up seadoo and your channel pop up and your videos are very good informative and entertaining as well.
Always carry a PLB personal rescue beacon (free from subscription) and keep your details updated with the coastguard. They are available on Amazon for under 100 dollars.
Ahoy Adam! Respect to your videos. Love the old style no edit Producer Michael videos. Less editing and cuts the better I say! We want to join you for the whole tour.
USCG service looks second to none! Wow! To be there in 30mins using air and sea rescue is incredible and will certainly be a life saver. Maybe the device needs updating to a long press button or something like that.
So sorry to hear about your back issues Adam. When you jumped off that high cliff on Catalina I instantly thought that with your previous back issues the week before, that it would certainly scrunch a few discs down your spine. It literally made me wince watching you do that! Chiro time and rest for sure. Hope you’re better soon and back to your adventures in good form.🥰👍🏻🥰
Well 1st of all I hope you feel better and that makes me feel not so bad spending $300 on my icom m94d. I guess a beacon is a good back up also. MANY THANKS FOR ALL THE INFO YOU PUT OUT.
We will go there and look for you, if you activated you beacon. make sure you have the proper equiptments just incase of any emergency or life treatening and make sure your VHF handheld radio has MMSI rather than nothing specially if your going on a long trip on and off the ocean on jet ski always used your proper gear PFD./Vest uscg rated, flares, air horn, orion safety alert 12gaug ,fire extinguisher, blowing whistle. Semper paratus
Woow, but at least in a way you'll be more confident that if something happens, there's a very good chance that you'll be ok. And it happened exactly in time just when you talked about it 😄. Love from Malta 🇲🇹 ❤️
hi adam love your videos. just have one question for you - what are your thoughts on the seadoo switch. and can there be an alternative for a new boat?
Thanx for a cool wid and story😃 Try yoga Adam, it works for me. Ive had massive back problems for years. and thanx to your buddy for saying knots and not Mph. Mph is not at sea🙂 Thanx again
Always always equip yourself properly. A long time ago as a Jnr soldier aged 15 we went to the Isle of Skye. It was May so not great weather but one morning we went canoeing in the sea. Now I had never been in a canoe but thought they where super steady, we where told how to escape if there was a problem. Anyway off I paddled enjoying being in the canoe but I realised I had paddles out too far and tried to get back, all to no avail, now I was very fit as we where in the Jnr Para Coy so lots of daily physical training but try as I might i couldn’t get closer. I called out but was told keep paddling which I did for around 25 mins and the sea was getting really rough when a wave flipped me over. I tried to get it too right itself but too no avail so I pulled the cover off so I could exit the canoe but my leg got trapped on one of the supports so my torso was one side and my leg the other. Try as I might i couldn’t get my leg released and my life jacket failed to inflate so the canoe was dragging me down with it. We had a rescue boat but the Officer in charge of it was acting the loon and flooded the engines. So by this time I,m exhausted, I have been in the sea ( The North Sea which is freezing) for over an hour and I just gave up, I was soo exhausted fighting too get a breath I thought this is it and you know when people say your life flashes in front of you well it does and I wasn’t scared I just felt warm and serene. When all of a sudden I felt a hand on my life jacket and I was hauled out of the water, onto a nearby fishing trawler. And you know in movies when someone pushes on your chest a spout of water cones out, well it does. Lol.. anyway we lost 3 canoes that morning and too cap it all off, the lorry we where being driven back to camp in crashed! The only thing I suffered from after the incident was a very high temperature when I caught the flu out of it all So make sure your equipment is fit for purpose, understand your own limitations and make sure you don’t have an idiot in charge of any safety equipment PS. Sorry it was soo long a story
Had me worried at first sure GLAD U R ALRITE....SSSHHHWWWEEE ADAM GET SONE VICKS 4 COLDS RUB IT WHERE YOUR IN PAIN ...VICKS IT IT WILL HELP...LOVE U DOLL STAY SAFE HAVE A GOOD SUNDAY!!!
As a former paramedic…I’d rather have an oops than someone not be able to call…then be in an absolute disaster with a bunch of people calling in when it’s too late…I’ve always told people…I’d rather have you call in by mistake (butt dial) than it be a total disaster…it also gives the kids a chance to practice…
If you need to move the Seadoo Senders group somewhere else, my first choice would be Discord. Loads of options for tweaking the server (group), multiple different text channels and voice channels, custom emojis if you want, the whole nine yards
Great story, wonderful outcome, and it shows that your educational Video actually has great value. Off Topic: I am one of those people who watch UA-cam Videos at home on my PC, connected to a TV. And that´s where you realize how utterly *stupid* vertical filming is and looks. It makes NO sense whatsoever to film in portrait mode. Yes, i know what Instagram or TikTok are, i don´t live under a rock, but its sill nonsense. It cuts off A LOT left and right. Have people completely lost the ability to turn their phones by 90 degrees and film ... horizontally ?? Vertical filming, by far the *dumbest* trend in recent years.

They are awesome. That’s how you activate with a 3 second push!
Great psa as well as your last video
Thanks Ethan!

Yeah I was worried about how I was gonna get off that cliff and ride the 28 miles home!
Uff that is crazy! The main thing is that everybody was fine. Plus its a huge testimonial as to why carrying a PLB is so important. Great video 🙌
Absolutely!

Any way to get the rescue diver on the show for a follow up ep?
I’m not sure, but maybe
hi adam love your videos. just have one question for you - what are your thoughts on the seadoo switch. and can there be an alternative for a new boat?
I’m waiting to get my hands on one to test out!
Wow that is crazy also great vid
Thanks!
I got in a bad situation once. Sea doo went down. Had to swim so far back to shore
Damn, glad you made it back safe.
Was there any cost associated with the miscue?
Nope
Thanx for a cool wid and story😃 Try yoga Adam, it works for me. Ive had massive back problems for years. and thanx to your buddy for saying knots and not Mph. Mph is not at sea🙂 Thanx again

So make sure your equipment is fit for purpose, understand your own limitations and make sure you don’t have an idiot in charge of any safety equipment
PS. Sorry it was soo long a story
Holy shit that’s awful. Glad you made it!
Did you ask the company about this? Did you ask them what could trigger it, have the equipment checked by the company or anything?
Had me worried at first sure GLAD U R ALRITE....SSSHHHWWWEEE ADAM GET SONE VICKS 4 COLDS RUB IT WHERE YOUR IN PAIN ...VICKS IT IT WILL HELP...LOVE U DOLL STAY SAFE HAVE A GOOD SUNDAY!!!

If this had been a Breitling Emergency it would have cost him a bucket load of cash

Yeah that’s what I was thinking
Telegram is great too. Better on mobile.
@@AdamSwords and if you want an assist, I'm more than happy to help, despite being based out of western Canada
Your radio should have worked. You should get it checked out
Great story, wonderful outcome, and it shows that your educational Video actually has great value.

Have people completely lost the ability to turn their phones by 90 degrees and film ... horizontally ??
Vertical filming, by far the *dumbest* trend in recent years.
Lol. Just a sign of how lazy we get that we don’t even want to turn our phones 90 degrees to watch content.
