    So glad everyone is OK and this ended well. As a 40 year open water survival instructor I can vouch for how dangerous it can get and it always seems the conditions that look the mildest are the most dangerous! NEVER underestimate the power of the ocean and respect it unconditionally at ALL times no matter how experienced or knowledgeable you are!

    Colin - there's a way to make that type of situation easier... carry fins in the dinghy, attach a float to them, let them get carried in by a wave. Have the stronger swimmer use the fins.
    Surf rescue in most countries will have both their swimmers wear them, and on occasion, ask those being rescued to don them as well.

    Growing up in Southern California we would spend our free time in school during things like assemblies learning about Riptide currents and how to swim out of them. After I moved to the southeastern USA we spent that time learning about Tornado drills. I am thankful for learning about the currents and as a very powerful swimmer I feel cool and collected when beach currents get wild. Salt water makes you very buoyant, sometimes ya just gotta stay afloat and let it take ya where it's going.

    Piha Beach. I sailed Hobie 14s there in early1980 with Crofton Umbers, the NZ National Hobie Champion at that time. Hobie Cat had asked me to do some work for them while I was in NZ. Piha is an amazing place. I raced in the Great Lakes. Crofton told me that I righted a 14 faster than he had ever seen it done. He asked me how I learned to do it so well. I told him it was the first time I ever righted a Hobie. LOL but, just like Hobie Jr. I feared sharks as they are plentiful around Piha in the Tasman Sea. So, I just kept saying sharks to myself. That 14 was literally muscled up and sailing again FAST! Crofton laughed his butt off!
    Yes. Hobie Jr. is very afraid of sharks. But that is another whole story.
    Great videos Colin. I am a Kiwi at heart.

    Great work to everyone for staying calm and composed and for Jeff gunning it over the crest of the wave with only seconds to spare. As soon as they were onboard I yelled “Gun it Jeff.!! And like a champ he did.
    Rips are no joke.
    Colin…got caught in a rip as did my sister on that very beach..Piha! These were the days when it wasn’t patrolled. I had a hell of a time getting back to shore and my sister was thrown hard against the rocks and badly cut up. And that’s concerned a good outcome.

    Mechanic here, sounds like you have a vacuum leak on the brake booster causing the engine to draw in unmetered air which will make it run lean (too much air and not enough fuel) which will make it stall out etc. When you step on the brake it causes the leak in the brake booster to get larger the harder you press, which is why it started to stall in town. Hope this helps your friend diagnose the issue on his truck :)

    I’ve been watching you for years on your UA-cam channel. You and your crew especially Jamie have built a phenomenal sailing vessel after all the bullshit with the broken bulkheads and every other thing that could happen, absolutely fantastic job but I might must say that besides fixing up A hurricane damaged vessel.
    You have also have such compassion for teaching people and making sure that everybody is safe especially after watching this weeks episode there is a lot more to fix and about but it’s also about teaching crew and how to be safe to live on the ocean.
    Congratulations for what you do it is absolutely amazing
    And I am extremely jealous

    A beautiful location but those waves are certainly serious. Wouldn't have been much to get to shore but like you said there's nothing on the shore and you'd still need to get the dinghy to them somehow. I'm so amazed you just had a couple grand sitting in a bank that you forgot about, but it's such a different lifestyle than staying in one place on land.

    I was a swim team member as a kid Every summer day at the pool, pond or lake , I grew up in the water learned to water ski in the duck river in Tenn. I could tread water for hours. I lived in south Fl. for a min and while swimming 30 yards off the beach I had the exact same thing happen , the washing machine started , my toes could touch every once in a wave but no matter how hard I stroked I just went backward when I stopped , a wave crashes on your head. Hard to breathe now Bam! another wave panic starts to set in, It's not fun. Just as some one saw my hand wave and start to run my way , my foot touched sand. I was moments from drowning. The Ocean can and will kill you.

    Wow, that was a close one. When the boat nearly flipped I knew it was one of the snarliest water situations I've seen or been a part of aa a raft guide. In surf I would subject myself to situations like that intentionally but in a kayak. It would flip me over and over, the challenge was to get over the wave and train my body. I soon found out that nose plugs were fairly important. I was in a white water kayak in the surf. Good training. Without special equipment one should never take a chance in surf. PFDs for instance. PFD could save you.
