Captain at 2:40 seemed to know his stuff. His piloting was text-book perfect for crossing a dangerous sandbar at a harbor entrance, and the same tactic appears valid here.
"Blue Top Legend" is indeed a legend. like a Wild West bronco rider. she is awesome. Id love to talk to her at some dock and get her life story. Always so happy and dancing on the waves ha ha.
The Cptn of Yellowfin FL 3105 PG should be summoned by the Coast Guard for ALLOWING someone to dump crap into the sea. His fine should be AT LEAST $1000.00. Next time he might warn his passengers not to pollute our oceans.
@chrisbr68 It's a hat if its made out of cardboard and holds 12 beers. Slow the playback and stop the video. As well, no one in aft row is wearing a hat to begin with.
@@jamiem.6506 It doesn't matter what the item is, at 03:48 a hand shows the deliberate act of THROWING the item into the sea. That is intentional pollution of the sea and a fine should have been issued.
One of the dangers of falling off the bow of a boat is hitting the propellers as the boat goes past them. The one boat that went slow and didn't fight the waves did a great job.
Life jackets are mandatory when going offshore where I live. Not a big fan but when half the ‘crew ‘ are landlubbers and the skipper can only control it if it’s got wheels makes for a smart move.
On my boat (36 foot I/0 - (twin Mercruisers) cruiser) its a bit like Capt. Quint in Jaws - its my vessel, my rules. (I'm the skipper- NO BOOZE!, for anyone unless the vessel is anchored up, or at the slip. ) Any sign of inebriation with those aboard, and I turn the vessel back to port (and I DON'T mean I'm turning it to the left!) -that is at any time, under way, or anchored. As captain the safety of all aboard is in my hands. ALL children shall wear PFD's, no exception. All non swimmers shall wear PFD's. I have the type of PFD's that inflate when in contact with water - they are very comfortable. Everyone shall be briefed on where the throwable life ring is and what to do. All state and federal boating regulations shall be followed. Have FUN on the water but do it safely! Fun can turn to tragedy in an instant. We ALL pay the price for morons on the water, with higher insurance premiums.
The girl that drive the Boston Whaler Blue Top Legend is a very skillful boat operator. She know how to handle a boat very well. I have seen her in a bunch of your videos. She is very good at handling that boat in the rough waves and she is HOTTT too
It’s twin sisters who are teenagers. Not sure which sister is in this video. But definitely skilled despite age! I think their dad taught them well though I believe I heard he was initially against them doing this. But they’ve been successful ever since and just getting better.
Thumbs up here for number one award all star......... "Blue top Legend" at 4:08 ....... Her confidence, artistic quality, wave techtonics, put her as the Gold medal earner..
I would like to see blue top legend wearing a deadman’s switch bracelet just in case she gets thrown out of the boat. She handles her whaler really well but safety should always be prioritized. Just a suggestion. When one gets thrown it happens so fast there nothing you can do. One second in the boat the next in the water with the boat going who knows where only one thing for certain your not going with it.
The rule of navigation is the larger vessel with a deeper draft and less maneuverable has the right of way in restrictive waterway in the channel. The Jet Ski should have stayed to the right of the waterway channel in the shallower water and give way to the deeper draft vessel overtaking it.
@seansean9675 In Colregs Rule 9 a vessel proceeding along the course of a narrow channel or fairway is obliged to keep "as near to the outer limit of the channel or fairway which lies on her starboard side as is safe and practicable."
@seansean9675 I corrected Colreg to Colregs. Basic rules of the water is maneuverability and draft in the restrictive waterway. They are free boating courses taught by the Aux Coast Guard.
@seansean9675 The shallow draft Jet Ski was in the middle of the channel blocking any deeper draft vessel instead of Rule 9 staying to the left where he could still navigate. You should take a boating course.
@seansean9675 The Jet Ski was entering the channel on the starboard side in the video with the boat behind it. Try watching the video, the Jet Ski was in the middle of the channel.
The "captain" of the pursuit needs to learn the danger signal, 5 short blasts of the horn. Pause and repeat. The operation of those damn water cycles needs to be outlawed in every inlet.
Perhaps so that the PWCs need to be regulated in congested areas. But until that happens the vessel being overtaken has the right of way. Besides that Pursuit is much better capable of handling rough water. Its driver is an arrogant, entitled a$$hole.
Wonderful display of mutual respect. 2 young men move out of shot upon realising they were front and centre, followed by a “thank you guys” from the cameraman.
The blue top boat @2.42 did a fantastic job coming in (SKILLS BRO). My granddad said to ride the back of a wave in. You do not want a prop full of foam and bubbles.
I remember going on a whale watch and got my tickets early. A lady was PISSED she was not first in line. I got my tickets, she then got hers and ran in a mad dash to be first on line on the boat. She darted to the front of the boat and we chose to sit in the middle. It was our plan from the start. That lady at the bow was warned as well. She appeared she didn't care. Then this happened and she was soaked. We had a good laugh.
I reckon another good place to watch is the boat ramp, watching them that can them that can’t and them that forget where the sides are ! I’m sure you have seen it, best on a long weekend with a beer and nibbles
Jet Ski has the right of way both are considered power boats. It's up to the vessel behind to avoid them and alert their intent which they did wrong. One short blast means starboard side pass two short blasts means port side pass but this guy just laid on the horn I'm guessing that means GTH out of my way lol!
NO IT IS ACULEY NOT.. small and nimbel crafts always YELD Lern rules of the sea we do´t care for what you THINK OR FEEEEL Is you right... BIG RULES SMALL YELD period..
broncosguru is correct. A PWC operates under the same rules as any other powercraft. Size doesn't matter. The yacht should have given two horn blasts to indicate passing on the left. If passing wasn't possible the overtaken PWC has the right of way.
I think they should have some sort of coast guard handing out summons for ppl littering and not wearing a life jacket. The amount of ppl with no life jacket is shocking to me. 😢
They do. They ticket everyone they catch with not enough on board...They cant require them to be worn, or else no one would take cruises...Plus, all the chicks in Bikinis, couldn't rub all over guys they are.crushing on...Watch the clips; Nothing excites people more than a dangerous (but, fun), ride.
Thank very entertaining, I skippered a 17’ fibreglass run about with a 130 on the back. Done all of these types of breaks and made a few mistakes but always had the ability to know when to gun it or pick the moment. Had a big southerly spring up around midday which put the ‘smarts’ in the bar for a few. But there is always the idiot who really had no idea about going out and sitting still and waiting for the break. Anyway he got smashed, literally his 18’ + run about got sat on its arse vertical then pushed right back to empty the contents ! Everyone help retrieve his gear from along the shore and he was lucky not to be seriously injured. Thanks it’s always fun!
@@plyr6369 You are absolutely wrong. Size of craft is irrelevant at these small craft sizes and both with power. A sailboat under sail is different and has right of way. Are you not aware of the rules of the road? 1. The boat was overtaking the jet ski. That alone means he should have slowed and followed, especially in a narrow channel. 2. He passed jet ski to the port side, meaning the boat had the jet ski in its “danger zone, 2 points abaft the starboard beam” This also means the boat and its skipper are totally in the wrong and a danger to general navigation if they do not know those simple rules. So are you. Just sayin’
Colreg 34 a vessel nearing an area of channel or fairway where other vessel may be obscured by an intervening obstruction shall sound one prolonged blast. The Jet Ski riding low in high waves in the middle of the channel would have been obscured to the larger vessel with its bow high in the air in high waves entering the channel.
Captain at 2:40 was a real captain, stayed just behind the swell riding it and in front of the following sea. Great stuff. The rest are palooka's. How did some of these guys ever pass their pilots license?
If I were a spinal surgeon, or a chiropractor, I would walk up and down the dock passing out business cards! The potential - likely damage these people are doing to their spinal column, necks and backs? And what they are doing to their children is inexcusable. Booze and boats do not mix! There is an old aviation saying applicable to this. "There are old pilots and there are bold pilots, but there are no old-bold pilots" -- PLEASE boat safely!!!
Yes the ski had the right of way because smaller vessels only yield to larger vessels if oncoming do dont run up on a smaller vessel and expect them to move from the front of you especially in a inlet
First of all what kind of Seasoned Experienced Floridian boater rides up in the Bow on the way out or in the inlet when the Bow is exactly where you should NOT be riding ?
Ok I know absolutely zero about boating so I’m asking this question to learn a little bit and not get ridiculed….what is the proper/best way to enter and exit that? Should boats be going very slow to compensate for the rough waves? Or should they be exiting and entering at a fast speed? Seems like going faster when they return equals a smoother ride but again I don’t know anything about boating so I’m asking 😅
I'm not sure of the rules in the US but if in Australia the jetski technically has right of way.. but the most important unwritten rule is right of might... if it's way bigger than you you best be looking out... a slow jetski made the boat captain nervous... plus a jetski makes a good artificial reef.. all they're good for really...
The first time I saw a corpse was in Florida. It was a young man's body. He'd fallen off the bow of the boat, went under the hull, and his face passed through the prop.
The jet ski is the overtaken vessel, and has the right of way. The vehicle laying on the horn is the overtaking vehicle and is required to maneuver if it wishes to pass. The jet ski is required to maintain course and speed so the overtaking vessel can properly predict his overtaking maneuver. The overtaking vessel can give two short blasts to signal his intent, but an extended blast conveys nothing but an aggressive "get out of my way" message. He also made no attempt to check his speed which was probably excessive for the relatively modest following seas.
Warning isnt enough, the Captain is obligated to slow, and turn the vessel around as he is responsible for the passengers safety. If they wont follow orders and put themselves at risk the Captain must end the journey. Thats a tight inlet, you must maintain speeds safe for the conditions and the overtaking vessel must give way to the jetski. Lots of mistakes here... that inlet should be minimum wake zone
You do realize that turning around in the middle of a tight and rough inlet is extremely dangerous? Also, going too slow in a following sea in a rough inlet could result in getting pitched sideways or potentially capsizing. The jet ski needs to get out of the way.
@@mikecopenhaver3707 I did say it was a tight inlet, and that speeds were unsafe for the conditions. Blasting a 60ft yacht at full plane is not a speed safe for conditions, the rules state, YOU MUST DEVIATE FROM THE RULES TO AVOID A COLLISION. That means you can plow thru dumb boaters and jetskis who arent following the rules. I may not remember every rule but that was one that I committed to memory as it was very important.
You can wait for the next wave in the trough of the wave, but then you have to approach the wave head-on, otherwise there is a risk that the boat will capsize sideways

Skippers who allow their passengers to sit in the bow under these conditions should have their license revoked...
That's just bad seamanship...
That's the problem: As far as I know, you don't even need a license for most of these boats. Nothing to revoke here.

Overtaking boat makes way.
You do realize that turning around in the middle of a tight and rough inlet is extremely dangerous? Also, going too slow in a following sea in a rough inlet could result in getting pitched sideways or potentially capsizing. The jet ski needs to get out of the way.
@@mikecopenhaver3707 I did say it was a tight inlet, and that speeds were unsafe for the conditions. Blasting a 60ft yacht at full plane is not a speed safe for conditions, the rules state, YOU MUST DEVIATE FROM THE RULES TO AVOID A COLLISION. That means you can plow thru dumb boaters and jetskis who arent following the rules. I may not remember every rule but that was one that I committed to memory as it was very important.
He definitely gave them the roughest ride possible.
You can wait for the next wave in the trough of the wave, but then you have to approach the wave head-on, otherwise there is a risk that the boat will capsize sideways
Stay in the rear with the beer.
Nice Ocean master
The Dusky Captain owned the inlet. Did far better than larger vessels.
Ok . . .so who cares what the mystery boat is ???? the GIRLS !!! Awesome :)
Jet skis need to stop playing in the inlets. 😮
