0:56 I don't know if there's enough time to catch the swimming pools as well 😂the Manukau bar is very dangerous , even the bar in Manukau is more dangerous😂, I went over the Manukau bar a couple times, on a calm day too but the waves come at you fast and they leap up at you they're steep and the bounce up from the bottom, I haven't been over the bar in Manukau ill probably just get thrown through the window😂
@@mitseraffej5812 the Manukau harbour bar is the sight of new Zealands worst shipping disaster, and isn't called the notorious Manukau bar for nothing , its shallow and very rough even on a Very calm day when we went over the bar we were free falling off waves for a couple of seconds, the waves leap up from nowhere and they can disappear from underneath the boat out of no where, the conditions are like if you were jogging with a bucket of water, the waves leap up into you from all angles and they crash into each other, and when the tides going out or is out huge sets of waves about 15 feet tall in groups sit there rolling in one spot, a terrifying yet amazing sight, if your engine breaks down in that moment you'll get dragged into them and killed
@@Insert.anger50 I’ve regularly cross the Manukau bar to fish. The Coast guard radio channel used for the bar watch covers south to Kawhia and north to Kaipara. Seldom hear boats coming out of Kawhia, mostly only on the most benign of days.

mate that looked like southern channel .... thats not one very often used especially by a charters its longer to get through and curved in shape (you can see in this video the waves being taken on a slight right angle). Definitely lifejacket material .... good eye bro
that was a charter boat and they used the southern channel?... thats what happend to the big loss of life a few years ago ... that channel is far more dangerous than the northern
6:33 big rookie mistake never let big waves catch up to the boat it'll turn you sideways and roll the boat over
Iam no boatie expert ...but i always surf behind a wave on its shoulders i guess and stay there till i disappates and always keep an eye behind you.
would have loved to see full crossing
Funny he's says everyone is silent when going over. Guess that must be on a good day
Never surf in front of a wave! you always behind the wave. 😅😂
Wasn't much silence at the bar ....was lots of talking 😂
Surfs up.!
Mate what happened next? Hope didn’t take any water over the bow?? More importantly tho, how was the fishing?? 🎣
Sketchy as!
Shoulda stayed in the harbour the day

And thats when the coastguard was called 🤦♂️. Some people are just better left on land.

Just shows you that this boats too under powered to be fishing out the west coast. if you cant beat the waves you shouldnt be out there
Is the bloke giving instructions teaching a new skipper? Seems like a shit show?
