    Amazing recovery job, those Hondas are going above and beyond. I assumed the transom failed out at sea but it actually looks like somebody went out 15 miles with a bodged transom repair with 500hp attached.

    It's amazing to me that after all these years, Grady White still has problems with their transom. An otherwise stellar boat. I must have replaced more than 20 transoms on Grady's over the years.

    I was Chief Engineer on some pretty big yachts for twenty years. One boat had a 26’ Grady with two 225HP outboards as a tender. You should have seen the size of the crane it had, to launch and retrieve it. When the owner died, his wife took over and sold the seaplane and put the Grady in its place.

      I have but usually do it in the right circumstances, it needs to already be vertical, in deep enough water, and if horizontal not imbalanced or too light & spin like a top. The parbuckle method always works, and there’s usually an audience so I like doing once.

    It did not sink. It capsized. I have seen a lot of boats where the horse power ratings of the mounted engine or engines were at the maximum allowable by the builder. The strength of the transom diminishes with time and use. Not only that this one already appears to have a previous failure. What happened was entirely predictable.

    • @CaptainRetriever

    • @mikearlington6748
      @mikearlington6748 3 місяці тому +2

      Those old Gradyhave a lot of wood in the transom which eventually rots and has a much lower structural rigidity than it was designed for. Compounded by the fact they are often repowered by 4 stroke motors which are heavier than the boat was designed for and rough seas and you have a recipe for a disaster.

People would probably enjoy an intro of you turning the camera on yourself while in route to the recovery and telling them about the call, what you know about the situation, your plan, etc. A short recap at the end of you debriefing is also good. This will probably open your videos to a larger audience that knows less about what it is you are doing. Check out the format of Matts Offroad recovery UA-cam channel.

      Wide angle lenses, but yeah definitely not flat, otherwise radio signals would only be limited by wattage not antenna height.

    A good days work I'd say, I was surprised that weak transom didn't break away and lose those heavy outboards.

  • @kaptkrunchfpv
    @kaptkrunchfpv 6 місяців тому

    So the transom was patched up BEFORE they took it out. WOW! Initially I rooting for the owners getting their boat back, but now I dont think thats such a great idea.

    Suggest you mount a GoPro on the boat and give a Picture in Picture of the boat as it flips…

    • @CaptainRetriever
      @CaptainRetriever  Рік тому +1

      I’ve thought of that, I just dont trust the clamp mount, the segments pop apart too easily & I’ll lose it. I did think if another way, also want to get a drone shot but I need an extra guy, and another camera & boat preferably

    I dunno why... this reminds me of how I teach kids to deep water start on a wakeboard! I get in the water with them and tell them to point the nose at the boat with their knees tucked up inside their arms "HIT IT!" while I hang onto the tail end of the board for a second... They're _forced_ to pop right up! 😆

    • @georgeselby3376
      @georgeselby3376 5 місяців тому

      We tried that for a day and could never get up (we weren't spring chickens). I watched a video online of having the board perpendicular to the boat, knees bent and I popped right out of the water, and then quickly spin the board 90 degrees (it pretty much does it itself.)

    Are you being paid to recover it or is your salvage now?

    • @CaptainRetriever
      @CaptainRetriever  Рік тому +8

      Operators of the vessel requested us, when we arrived on scene they were on board a coast guard vessel, I had them sign a salvage form, and contacted the owner for insurance info or direct payment before we proceeded.

    Cause or incident?? Looks like top much power and rough seas broke the transom.
    I had a similar periblem where a 250 was put on the 22' Grady/ They did a lousy job and water got in soaking a big area. We cut the wet wood out, reinstalled fry wood, glassed over it thin added a stainless wrapping over both front and rear of the transom.
    Grady's are not that great a boat.

    • @CaptainRetriever
      @CaptainRetriever  Рік тому

      It broke before, and was poorly repaired from my knowledge of the situation. Probably overpowered, and run in less than ideal conditions too..
