I am absolutely amazed by these boats and captains launching off the beach into the crazy waves, tho I understand it , it is pretty crazy stuff to get out to sea like that. Craziest boating stuff since the last Haulover stuffing I watched, good captains who know the waters well, the changes on earth will certainly keep them on their toes.
Absolutely fascinating!! I really enjoyed your informed commentary, as being a complete novice ( simply an uninformed spectator) I started to appreciated the complexity and skill involved.!!! Some skippers just make it look easy.
Awesome videos. This reminds me a lot of going out of our local Matanzas Inlet. Its the only natural inlet left on the east coast of Fl I believe. Constantly changing, and you have to time the tides and the waves right. Makes me appreciate our boat ramps here!
They can carry enormous amounts of weight compared to normal glassfiber hulls.. but no.. it was not very heavily loaded.. It just appears like it.. all ocean-going vessels adhere to Strick SAMSA regulations and Certification.. Something very extensively controlled is the Safety of vessels Surf Launching from the beaches here in iSimangaliso Wetlands Park..
@mikeemery6741 😂😂😂 exactly what I am talking about.. I was also having my fun with you.. South African Gen X humor.. sorry.. will tone it down for our International Audience
Thinking on a 5.5m v hull rib with 90hp 2-stroke! Thankfully it'll be all peir launches and calm weather until I get experienced enough before challenging any surf! Thanks for the cool video!
Summer Months there is more digging from the ovean side .. so deeper gullies.. less Samdbanks.. sets may be bigger but way more predictable.. and the flow is more from South to North.. rather than suddenly and unpredictable
They sometimes get it right at the right time of the tide.. closer to high and low tide the waves are at their biggest on the bar ... then there is a lal.. when the gaps are long and waves are not so dominant.. but they have to deal what they have in front of them.. it's all about timing
Thanks.. so many people has argued with me at the beginning.. they said you can't count the waves.. we had many hubris abrasive arguments on the channel about counting the sets.. Now days people have windy, wind finder and many other apps that state how many seconds between a set.. makes Launching so much easier with such knowledge
Talk to a surfer man, you can count waves. That's how I found out about it and cross bars here in Aus all the time and always wait a bit and count 1 or 2 sets . But the amount of waves per set and the gap between the sets will be different everywhere,and some breaks are just radical. Your vid reminded me of the Fraser Is fishing comp launching of the beach but on trailer.
Depending on the bar and the depth of water.. well if rythm has worked for you that's great.. but not all skippers has the opportunity to spend so much time in the mid break.. they have to rely on a system where they can count it..
🤫🫣🤣🤣🤣🤣 on a shifting sand bank.. that literally moves as the tide comes in for high tide.. or the tide goes out for kow tide.. esih.. luckily Wiseman is in charge of the Launch Site ... What a relief
Good Morning. .. at least one of the viewers that understands what this channel is about.. Entertainment.. thanks for watching.. but most of all thanks for the positive feedback
which I guestimate by the hight of the T- Top or boat nose.. I may be off by a couple of inches or a foot.. but not often.. Thing people don't take in consideration when viewing the videos is zoom length.. and camera hight and angle.. This is real life.. no camera effects or CGI.. I can only say what I see.. to make the channel entertaining.. not supposed to be educational.. Not aiming at your comment.. just using it as a platform to explain to someone who won't have privilage to comment here again.. How things are precieved
thanks.. I won't.. unfortunately it's a daily event and somedays I am just a little off balance.. but these negative comments is targeted at me for being an Ashole..that I am.. and I am well at it
Really enjoyed watching this; from Australia; well done -nicely narrated.
Hi John.. thanks.. this was my best video so far .. hopefully my second best is published today at 05:00

Thanks for watching and the positive comment.. much appreciated
"let the skipper do his work" love it
😉 that's just who I am..

Loss of habitat is always a sad state of affairs
That rubber duck looks like a life raft compared to the big cats 😂 but can turn 180 on the spot! Looks very heavily loaded though

@@PetrusandPardette thank you for explaining 🙏🙏🙏
@mattyolo 🐬
Holy crap guys! Y'all ever hear of marinas or boat ramps?
🤣🤣😂 we don't fuck up Nature because we are scared. we allow nature to thrive..
Gimme a break, I was just having some fun at your expense... @@PetrusandPardette

Will be a great idea to gather enough experience before moving to anything major that can shutter teeth of severe tongues... 😎

Good morning petrus
Good Morning Bernie
The skipper at 23 minutes made it look a walk in the park WOW

Count the waves in the set and then your right. The waves get bigger at the end of the set and its flat to gun it through.

how many waves in a set? ... been surfing 50 years.. I rely on my eyes not my mathematics
@@garyspeed8961 Each brake is different. 6-8 where i surf.

Where is this? Surf looks amazing, and the locals read the waves like pro
St Lucia Estuary.. iSimangaliso Wetlands Park..South Africa..
A few marker buoy’s would help

Great entertainment. Like Haulover but at least the SAFAs wear lifejackets!

Guy at the minute 25 knew his shit, smooth af
He is new in the area.. but extremely qualified for the job
Cat Country😺🦾👍
yes
Expected some wavy boats level carnage after seeing the thumbnail. But got treated some pro boaters showing how its done.
only way I can beat dopimine addicts is to click bait them
click bait
Jip.. I said it .. click bait
@mikefarrell3052 Still much more skills and action than any other Channel about Surf Launching
They should have jet boats , they can go anywhere, over sand bars , in 2 inches of water, and wave jump
Yes .. but the rand is to weak for South Africans to afford it
Where can I find the video of the guy launching with the small boat you mentioned?
Somewhere on this channel.. can't remember when .. titled..
Guess a breakwall and docks are out of style.
I will help immensely for the health of the Estuary and Estuary Mouth..
Ek het al perongeluk ń boot gesurf
🐬
Kyk op 29minute. 'n chase reg langs die boot. Mullet spring uit die water.
Het gesien.. daar is so baie vis op die stadium.. Mullet.. Shad.. selfs Sardines
F*kkit. Ek het my "life jacket" gaan aantrek om na jou video te kyk...😂😂😂
hahahaha.. thanks vir die moerse positiewe comment
You dtill have to face the face height when youre on a boat
which I guestimate by the hight of the T- Top or boat nose.. I may be off by a couple of inches or a foot.. but not often..

How things are precieved
20:30 more like 5 foot
You where on the beach.. Good For you..
…. As if it was rented..
Hahaha.. ja maybe
Way too much commentary.
Excellent observation.. maybe you want to watch music videos.. what's your Pronouns?
@@PetrusandPardette I’m a skipper, spent many years at sea. Sorry just being honest
love the commentary... don't stop
thanks.. I won't.. unfortunately it's a daily event and somedays I am just a little off balance.. but these negative comments is targeted at me for being an Ashole..that I am.. and I am well at it
@@PetrusandPardette sorry mate, meant no harm, sorry if I came across as being rude or disrespectful. Wasn’t my intention.
What boat got killed?
When?
