the brick wall part was halarious! Hay Ruffy, the fact that you stayed there and risk your life in order to record this great video makes you a great man!
reminds me of the cartoon mr magoo. It's mr magoo's cousin. mrs van der Magoo. love the bit just after she crashed into the big boat, she holds her hand to her heart to apologize and then suddenly notices her boat is on a head on collision course with the next big boat (you could see it approaching a few shots earlier) and she returns to her state of panic. does she say at the end "its difficult because there is so much wind and waves" ?? brilliant
In Holland you dont need any license for mastering a ship up to 15 Meters, slower than 11Kn and you can take up to 12 people. Just jump in and go ahead.....
This poor lady doesn't seem to realize that it takes time for a boat that long to come around. She gets impatient, then cranks the wheel more and more. Then, when the boat finally does come around, she has over corrected grossly. Now, she does the same thing again, trying to correct her over correction. *sigh* It could be worse, I guess. She could be trying to drive a semi.
She is the worst professional boat skipper that this really has to be a joke! In Amercia, she would loose her captain license so fast. I'll omit that I laughed so hard. Thanks for sharing.
if that boat was loaded with tourist, then acidents would have happend, because she has no clue how to steer a empty boat, let alone a full loaded one. This is one of the weird things in holland, because you may operate a vessel way up to 50feet long without a boating licence, just as long it doesn't go faster than about 10 miles an hour, but you do need a licence to operate a jetski or any small boat that can go faster than 10 mph.
just makes me think of bumper cars, this is fkn great! anyone ever feeling down or just needing a good laugh should see this clip. so rare to find something this wrong that failed in everyway possible. yet hurt no one and still gives soo much to anyone that sees it. hahahaha
Funtastic ride! The lady might be learning the ropes but those canals can be quite windy; without a bow prop it's basically imposible! I think she's great!
This is one of my favorite "candid" videos on UA-cam... I laugh every time I watch, especially when the young lady in the front can't stop laughing. :D
Wow, I wish I could steer a gigantic boat like that through the canals. She must have had years and years of experience. I hope you guys gave her a big tip. Even offering a free ride next year, I just hope she lives that long. Anyway now you guys understand why blowing is legal in our country....
@Thetabiz she's a professional. She would have a simple licence to sail those boats with passengers and she's working for the canal boat company in that video. It's a very big company that do hop-on hop-off cruises. Makes it all the more amusing that she got paid to be skipper. funniest video I've seen for a while. loved it.
I know how she feels. I captained a tour in a 105'x16' wide summerset. with no bow or stern thrusters. I hated the windy days. I kept a nice cold cocktail near by most of the time.
ruffymeister is Dom Jolly!!!! Ha Ha. Great video .. realy well put together. This woman should stick to making toast and leave skippering to the big boys.
Maybe the Skipper has something other than Tobacco in that cigarette? She clearly has no idea how to skipper a boat, and was trying to 'drive' it like a car........... WELL, it don't work like that, you have to make small adjustments and anticipate and not be going so damned fast!
I used to work as a skipper and nose first is used by ferrys and commuterboats etc..but this was without a fender and honestly the worst driving I have ever seen haha..she does not even know how to manouver (a ship does not act like a car so you have to think differently) But she could not even let passengers of correctly...I don´t think she has a certificate or does she?? Hope not!
It is clear she is in great stress. but tbh most private boats in the city drive just like her. if you are able to be in amsterdam with special events like queens day . and you like incompetent ppl in little boats go !! Crossing Leidsgracht/ prinsengracht is awesome place, and the haarlemmersluis can be good for several entertaining hours. I was a captain for a long time, been canal captain for 3 years. then i got enough of tourists tbh and the stupid liitle boats most of them cant drive.
I dont remember any music on this video. WMG Nazis have really ruined this website. We need a new youtube that doesnt cry everytime you want to put a song on your video.
Brilliant, Ah who cares, no one was hurt and the entertainment value was epic.
The Netherlands is a wonderful country with lovely people.
I hope she still has her job. I want that special tour!
Thanks mate!!!!!
5*****
Its not only that she is clumsy; its the way you tease her that makes the video a piece of art!
the brick wall part was halarious! Hay Ruffy, the fact that you stayed there and risk your life in order to record this great video makes you a great man!
Great video! I was laughing my arse off. Loved how the two of you just laughed and went along for the ride....well done my friends, well done.
dude excelent!! im also a skipper in the canals of amsterdam, i always cross her, thank god she never crash me.
At 1:18 she didnt say ''out of the way'', but she said "i'm going past you"
Can't find this kind of entertainment except in a comedy club.
Loved the running commentary and question time! Keep up the good work, shes a star in the making.

you guys are awesome sports lol!!! i think you two actually benefited from your skipper's tour!
your wife was hillarious,she made me laugh for ages.
This is the best UA-cam video I have ever seen!! EVER!!!!!!!

I think this lady has smoked too much of our famous Dutch ,,herbs'' !!!
She is the worst professional boat skipper that this really has to be a joke! In Amercia, she would loose her captain license so fast. I'll omit that I laughed so hard. Thanks for sharing.
thanks for uploading that, funniest thing on UA-cam!
she keeps over stearing
I just love the confidence she inspires!

I love the "I can speak right now or I will die with laughter face" very funny . I love it when you have to hold back laughter it just makes it worse
excellent video
God bless her and all who sail with her!
just makes me think of bumper cars, this is fkn great! anyone ever feeling down or just needing a good laugh should see this clip. so rare to find something this wrong that failed in everyway possible. yet hurt no one and still gives soo much to anyone that sees it. hahahaha
This is too funny! If I go here I'll be searching for her tours! Great video!
Funtastic ride!
The lady might be learning the ropes but those canals can be quite windy; without a bow prop it's basically imposible!
I think she's great!
I'm from Belgium.. but still love the Dutch people :D
There's a memory that will not soon be forgotten!!
This is one of my favorite "candid" videos on UA-cam... I laugh every time I watch, especially when the young lady in the front can't stop laughing. :D
cant get enough of this video.
Wow, I wish I could steer a gigantic boat like that through the canals. She must have had years and years of experience. I hope you guys gave her a big tip. Even offering a free ride next year, I just hope she lives that long. Anyway now you guys understand why blowing is legal in our country....
hilarious!!!!!
im a boat skipper aswell, it can get really ugly once u start panicking! thats wat the lady was doin.
@guardian1977
Thanks, we'll do that. We LOVE the Nederlands!
Fantastic video, 5 starts. Comments are gold!
brilliant filming and great casting :) v funny . thanks.
Yeah same here, really hope he uploads it again with audio
@Thetabiz she's a professional. She would have a simple licence to sail those boats with passengers and she's working for the canal boat company in that video. It's a very big company that do hop-on hop-off cruises. Makes it all the more amusing that she got paid to be skipper. funniest video I've seen for a while. loved it.
Great video,nice work
A Duch Skkipper my self, let me say SORRY, this not the way we do it, wateverway that was!!?But it was stormy(just not there)
Amsterdam RULES!!! and our stoned skippers rule too!!!! :)
I know how she feels.
I captained a tour in a 105'x16' wide summerset.
with no bow or stern thrusters.
I hated the windy days.
I kept a nice cold cocktail near by most of the time.
looks good, i have been there a few times - i would not be surprised if she is still going at it.
It not that hard to "drive" a boat, for normal people... But I must say, the nose first method is pure genius :-P
@ruffymeister nice to hear and you guys were very chill in that situation :) , probably visit the happy shop fisrt eh :P
2012 now , but i enjoy youre video !! almost queensday again owowow ,i am on my boat again to be part of the chaos in the canals of amsterdam mmmm
please re upload this. I dont know why they disabled the audio, I dont remember any music in it.
she was high lol
That was so funny! I bet the lady smoked weed before she got on the boat. I'm gonna find this woman as soon as i can!
Why doesn't this have 5 stars?
whaha skipper is grazy and she eat paddo's ? brr
greetings from the netherland
That was hillarious! Top skipper!
ruffymeister is Dom Jolly!!!! Ha Ha.
Great video .. realy well put together. This woman should stick to making toast and leave skippering to the big boys.
Can you report this and do something about it?
bless her
Ferrari should sign her up for 09, look at those wheel skills LOL
Please, tell me that this was a candid camera! I don't believe it!
Not authorized audio, i dont remember any music in this video at all.
I would like to take this tour!
what does the sign on 3:56 mean???? dont moor maybe
Hmm i live on a boat in Amsterdam, and i'm a lot on the water.. never seen her though, what the name of the boat.
What a landcrab
you guys were all baked up, weren't you?
Far too aggressive with helm and throttle.
Maybe the Skipper has something other than Tobacco in that cigarette?
She clearly has no idea how to skipper a boat, and was trying to 'drive' it like a car........... WELL, it don't work like that, you have to make small adjustments and anticipate and not be going so damned fast!
I used to work as a skipper and nose first is used by ferrys and commuterboats etc..but this was without a fender and honestly the worst driving I have ever seen haha..she does not even know how to manouver (a ship does not act like a car so you have to think differently) But she could not even let passengers of correctly...I don´t think she has a certificate or does she?? Hope not!
Nooit eerder op 'n bootje gezeten, toeristjes?
she is a great driver
old people + motorized vehicle = never good
What a great European vacation!! Priceless!
Hehe this seamed like a lot of fun !! Would like to find this lady :))
It is clear she is in great stress. but tbh most private boats in the city drive just like her. if you are able to be in amsterdam with special events like queens day . and you like incompetent ppl in little boats go !!
Crossing Leidsgracht/ prinsengracht is awesome place, and the haarlemmersluis can be good for several entertaining hours.
I was a captain for a long time, been canal captain for 3 years. then i got enough of tourists tbh and the stupid liitle boats most of them cant drive.
Hahahaha fantastic! Hope you have enjoyed Amsterdam a lot besides this tour
BRTLLIANT VIDEO. Amazed you let the wife stay that close to the edge of the boat.
LMAO
I would've just taken over the helm.Very funny
Yeah, the dutch are great with water! Aren't we?
THE TITANIC.. I GUESS..PML
I can't stop laughing!!
From her actions I don't think they were cig butts LOL!
oh my. She should share a cell with Paris Hilton for that "driving"...Hilarious
the skipper looks a little bit like michael douglas
I dont remember any music on this video. WMG Nazis have really ruined this website. We need a new youtube that doesnt cry everytime you want to put a song on your video.
great video, hilarious :)
Hahaha! I just hope she won't crash into my houseboat one day... :)
put the sunglasses on or take them off, one or the other
obvously when manovering nr the larger vessel
her eyes caught the lcoal coffee shop she frequents.
FAIL - Skipper
als je nou niet als een gek aan dat stuur gaat staan draaien maar met kleine beetjes blijven de andere boten mischien ook heel kluns
hehe,, i live in holland but this is just 2 funny. Ill think twice before i take a tour now,,, do the barrel rowl..
I would have been like, you better let me drive, where is this anyway? Im used to a 40 foot rinker and my 21 foot glastron
Too much wacky tabacy
She has been taken drugs lately?
iff your in holland again......call me and ill take you in my boat for a tour and i promise i wont crash okay! :)
glad she's steering on the water and NOT on the road! (enough women left on the road though, unfortunately ;) )
hello all the skipper she is a replica of my ex wife without tobacco jejejejooo ,best short movie in all the net .God speed
"Vrouw achter 't stuur, bloed aan de muur," as we say in Dutch ;)
haha this is a very funny video!!!!
are you high lady jeezzz

HAHAHAH omg dude, same as that one dude. if your in NL, visit me as i've been raised on the sea pretty much :D
