With high waves after a western storm we, monohull sailors would always wait for the catamaransailors, especially the Hobycat sailors with more money than brains, to bury their boats into the banks and break the mast… these masts were great for the ice- and beach sailing thingies… never a dull moment…😂😂😂😂
For the new "captains", might I suggest, take a day off work during the week, when the ramp is not busy, put the boat in the water and practice docking.
that is exactly what my wife and I did years ago with our first boat! we practiced launching the boat and putting it back on the trailer with no one around. the only trouble i have now with our newer boat is that the dock where we keep it, is super shallow! MUCH more difficult to dock it when windy, with the prop up.... but teamwork, slow and steady, and practice, is a big help!!!
I solo sail a 40' full keel sailboat all over Florida. Never had half the issues these people have. I set up lines at the ready on both sides and use Docking Sticks.If you Docking Sticks all you have to do is get within 8-10 feet of the dock and you're good. Watching these people ram the dock and they still cant get it is comical.
Pretty sure the folks on the grass regret to not have brought lots of popcorn. The incompetence of these boar owners and lack of knowledge of the forces that govern the way a boat behaves is staggering.
After a day of boating (on the Potomac) we used to get a table near the ramp to eat our dinner, big fun! I never interjected unless asked. Wife and I used to “wow” people loading ours. She in boat, me backing. Trailer hit the water, she already powering in, bingo, snap, pull it, 30-45 seconds, max, windy, strong current or not. My dad and bro’s taught me well.
The Miami Boat Ramps channel should send "Thank You" emails to every brewer of beer and every distiller of hard spirits. Without those companies it would be much more difficult to find incidents worth recording.
That’s probably me lol. My first boat is a 25ft seahunt center console. Luckily we had about a 6 month wait while the boat was being built. During that time I’ve been watching these videos and how to’s to learn what to do and what not to do, honestly these docking videos are the most helpful. It’s interesting how much you can learn from learning what not to do. No major issues, I did clock the dock one day, we had a strong wind going the opposite direction as the current which was also strong. I thought the current would win so set it up that way but the wind won and pushed the dock. No real damage but it’s the only rash I’ve had so far. I’d like to think I’m decent enough but someone watching me probably cringes plenty.
Man, I watch this channel every day. And this had to be the most heart-stopping episode. I had something like this happen to me. I mean I didn't jump off my boat. But having people on your vessel that have no clue what they are doing is dangerous. It's our responsibility to teach them the basics and explain what we need them to do when that time comes. Learned my lesson as I'm sure this guy did. Gel coat is not a cheap fix.
The other thing to do is practice docking at all states of the tide and wind. It's no use just dropping the boat in going for a ride and coming back, where is the skill set going to be learnt.
No point in teaching others.. The first man that attempted to Dock hadn't any idea of how to steer or how to put the boat in neutral.... Without doubt a dangerous idiot
2 lines ashore and still a fail!! Amazing. Those sticky up solid looking poley things. Perfect for tying off a line and stopping a 16 foot boat. Job done.
@@robertteap8052 It is simple AF. I used to bring 28 - 45 foot sailboats/power boats into slips by myself with current & wind. If you're standing on a dock with TWO docklines in your hands, you have total control to reign the boat in.
as a life long sailor, both US Navy, power boat, and sailboat, all this video does is re-affirm my belief that getting a license to operate any vessel should be more stringent than licensing for driving an automobile.

Won't help a bit if the licensed captain of the ship leaves the ship running with a bunch of morons on board. Should this end in catastrophe, who are you going to blame: the boat or the moron people? The anti-gun people will blame the boat and want all boats banned.
Why exactly? Are you worried he is going to lean over to far and fall in near the prop? I think the girl sitting on the back of the boat was more dangerous.
@@internetjunkie1000 Why? How about nobody is watching the kid while prop pulls rope and him over the side. That rope could have easily have tangled around that very young boy. Bad situation.

@@EdWeibe didn’t really mean to imply it wasn’t legal just that so many think it should be. The US has an obesity problem ( I’m 15 pounds overweight) and it has become common for people to rationalize their weight issues as being “ beautiful “.
In all fairness, cap just got the boat last weekend and today he is going to show the world his boating skills he learned in the 2 hour demo the salesman gave him.
Me and my wife had a great system. I backed the trailer down the ramp and the wife steered the boat on the trailer. Did the same when we launched. Took us about 1 minute and off we went.
I never understand why people don't wrap the lines around the post as soon as possible. Once wrapped it will hold the boat when with the motor running.
No lines out, they don’t know how to use the wind and current, and don’t know how to swing the stern toward the dock. I do not allow my son to go out on the water during holidays in the keys, or during the weekend in the summer because of all of these idiots.
I bought a boat 2 years ago. Never had any boat experience and I was never this bad loading and unloading. I think just one time the current was bad at the launch. Folks slow down and plan out everything. I used to do everything solo so I just don't see how they struggle with multiple people.
I live in a region of British Columbia, Canada, where 2/3 of the people on the water are drunk or stoned out of their minds. Often both at the same time. I have never seen any of them have as many issues docking as most people on this channel 😵💫
@@kevinhupe3116 I did live in the OK until around 2 years ago, then moved to the Gulf Islands. Now the Okanagan looks like a church community. I never would have thought this, but even with all the open drug use, there is very little crime compared to anywhere else I have lived.
@@ayten3617 I wouldn't necessarily say that Ay Although I did state the absolute truth Bronco has more people to select from. I don't think I have ever seen more than 1 boat ramp in a location.
As a younger man we spent a lot of time at the lake and some of the best entertainment was sitting in the lawn chair with the cooler watching the show at the boat ramp
I like that SeaHunt that had so much trouble. The first captain looked slick coming in and stepping off onto the dock but the second looked like the type of guy that doesn't like being told what to do. How hard is it to turn the key off?
I am not sure what goes on in America but here in Australia in particular Western Australia we have to have a skipper’s ticket to operate a boat. That involves doing a course which involves theory and a practical test. There is no way a lot of the boats owners I am watching here would ever pass the course.
You also have drivers license to drive a car but drive like idiots still. Also Australians love big government telling them what to do and yall wear it like a badge of honor.
Just did my Queensland boat licence. Its a joke, one dude failed 20 of the theory questions, 12 the second time despite the guy basically telling him the answers, took him 4 tries to pass it despite the fact that you are only meant to get one attempt and the questions are pretty much the most basic stuff ever. The practical is a joke too, just put around on flat water for a little bit while the instructor tells you exactly what to do and takes the controls if you mess up. Basically impossible to fail.
I was better at docking the boat as well as getting it up onto the boat trailer than my husband no matter how choppy or windy it was. I still had bumpers placed on the cleats just in case on the side against the dock. I wasn’t good at backing the trailer down the long ramp, so found out by chance that he was good at that and I was better at maneuvering around the dock and trailer. It’s a skill and some people are just better instinctively than others. My husband came in too fast and damaged the bow needing repairs so it became our usual task. No more time wasted getting the trailer positioned and no more dock crashes and multiple attempts at trailering the boat. We took friends out and didn’t understand that boats and cars don’t move the same way. Taking a USCG boating safety course provided us with valuable information and should be required.
Plus, they handle differently depending on tide and wind. I single handed a 30ft twin screw lump for years touring France, Belgium and Holland. The only place I would not single crew was across the English Channel. That was more to do with in case of an engine breakdown, the boat was built in 1930!!!!!
We go to a park/boat ramp on the Mississippi river in St Paul MN. It IS very entertaining sitting watching the boats go by and watching the boats try and get back on their trailers at the boat ramp. The current of the river does create more problems for getting the boat back on the trailer than on a lake. It really is very entertaining.
you just cut it off this whenever I was wanting to see how bad the rope was in his prop I wish you would have kept it on and so we seen how bad wrote was in his proper brother have a blessed day and be safe 🙏 I enjoy watching your show brother 🙏
Watching these is at the the same time aggravating and fascinating… and definitely compelling… lots of folks out there with little/no training or common sense. Keep up the posts 👍😁
The best and most entertaining afternoon I ever had was watching weekend warriors trying to launch and retrieve their Boats at a local Marina. Never laughed so hard since. 👀
This is fun to see! Cool how it sounds like a commentator at a baseball game, all the players are named "Cap". Centuries ago, I grew up in a little factory town (all condos now) on the Hudson River, Piermont, NY. We were all River Rats, playing in the polluted water, and working in the boatyards when we got big. So much fun, and a whole lot like this! There is a reason all boats are female!
We have lakes and reservoirs here in Wyoming. And the wind never stops, try loading a boat in 15-40mph ! And do it all by yourself. Practice makes Perfect.
There is a reason this channel exists and that is all thanks to people who have no business being anywhere close to the water much less in a boat. And you can't forget those many skippers who have zero skills at backing up a trailer. It boggles the mind.
Is much the same here in Minnesota; you honestly cannot believe what happens at the ramps on our lakes! Either we go on an off time to avoid these people or head for the rivers.
Bring' s back a lot of memories of Dad at the lake drinking for 3 days straight through, gotta say he handled it pretty good, but there was a 2 or 4 times....
Omg that was so dangerous when the kid was trying to pull the rope in on the back of the boat. He also had his head out of the side of the boat as the captain was approaching the dock. Wow so lucky.
Hilarious! I saw a guy get tired of waiting his turn to get his boat out and decided to go to the off side of the ramp into the gravel and backed his trailer right over an underground bent railroad tie😂. Couldn't even lift it over the tie with five guys. Best afternoon ever spent on Puget Sound!
Docking a small boat is so easy. Take the bow line and take a turn around ANY dock cleat or bollard. Take up slack and apply minimal forward thrust with motor turning steering away from dock. The stern slowly swings into dock. Secure stern and kill power. Then. WALK YOUR BOAT TO YOUR TRAILER and use your winch. Works every time.
You should get that ramp to install a big digital sign like they do for road conditions and you be in charge of messages to boaters such as: Dont stand on back deck. Line in water etc.
Used to go to an old beer joint that was right next to a bust launching ramp on the south jetties in Galveston Texas. It is hard to understand how many people buy boats and motors who have never been on a boat much less operated one. Mostly funny and considerable danger also. Lots of swamped and sunken boats due to no experience.
I'm betting the banging around Sea Hunt is the old mans boat and the "Cap" is the son that does all the driving. No one would throw the line back and stand there watching any body mistreat his boat like that.
I ONLY take my 18’ CC out when the dock is nearly empty! I can dock by myself. But but when other boats are around. And people are watching. I just get close to the dock and toss the line. And pull it in myself. All the way. Till I can winch it.
Watching this causes me to wonder how some people make it through a regular day without hurting themselves or others.
They don't. They actually hurt themselves and others.
They don't.
They are at the ER. I owned a construction business 27 years & am grateful there were only five injuries requiring a doctors attention.

Bring' s back a lot of memories of Dad at the lake drinking for 3 days straight through, gotta say he handled it pretty good, but there was a 2 or 4 times....
I have never seen such a three ring circus docking a boat. WOW 😂😂
Hilarious to watch.
You;re right, this is rough to watch......REALLY rough to watch!
That’s like an event, to place bets on!
Omg that was so dangerous when the kid was trying to pull the rope in on the back of the boat. He also had his head out of the side of the boat as the captain was approaching the dock. Wow so lucky.
All that canvas and all that wind, couldn't get humpty dumpy on the trailer again 🧐🤦♂️💁♂️
Hilarious! I saw a guy get tired of waiting his turn to get his boat out and decided to go to the off side of the ramp into the gravel and backed his trailer right over an underground bent railroad tie😂. Couldn't even lift it over the tie with five guys. Best afternoon ever spent on Puget Sound!
01:00 Guy on dock with BOTH dock lines in hand could've wrapped the lines around the pilings and took TOTAL CONTROL of the boat & reign it in.
This fucking channel should be a mandatory watch to all who wants to operate a watercraft. Top twenty videos must be watched minimum.
Docking a small boat is so easy. Take the bow line and take a turn around ANY dock cleat or bollard. Take up slack and apply minimal forward thrust with motor turning steering away from dock. The stern slowly swings into dock. Secure stern and kill power. Then. WALK YOUR BOAT TO YOUR TRAILER and use your winch. Works every time.
I think I just held my breath for 3 minutes , holy shit!!
Don't you just love Murica. Full of special people 👍
*Land that I love!*
Boat ramps.
Great entertainment .
This is why people need to take a class on boating
You should get that ramp to install a big digital sign like they do for road conditions and you be in charge of messages to boaters such as: Dont stand on back deck. Line in water etc.
This is hilarious watching.
WOW. JUST WOW.
Used to go to an old beer joint that was right next to a bust launching ramp on the south jetties in Galveston Texas. It is hard to understand how many people buy boats and motors who have never been on a boat much less operated one. Mostly funny and considerable danger also. Lots of swamped and sunken boats due to no experience.
I'm betting the banging around Sea Hunt is the old mans boat and the "Cap" is the son that does all the driving. No one would throw the line back and stand there watching any body mistreat his boat like that.
I ONLY take my 18’ CC out when the dock is nearly empty!
I can dock by myself. But but when other boats are around. And people are watching. I just get close to the dock
and toss the line. And pull it in myself. All the way. Till
I can winch it.
I’ve never been on a boat in my life but it can’t be that hard.
This is why gawd gave us rowboats!
A friend of mine that worked at a marina once told me the best show in town is at the marina.
The slow burn of being completely hammered and finally needing to perform something with skill.
