Small plastic boat. An accident waiting to happen.

Open top boat, crossing in the wrong spot and I didn’t see any life jackets being worn.

Wow

Got balls crossing the manukau bar in a boat like that on a day like that and with no secondary propulsion 😳

Sione....i worry about you and your family you are not on the right line to re enter the south channel . Can you please please please seak out the right line to take its way to your right where the calmer water is. What i mean is no breaking waves

When i last went over the bar the waves were coming towards us leaping up at us,

0:32 hell yeah, great video one where you see the waves on the bar properly, this place can be really nasty when the weathers bad

Dam sting ray,, no good to eat not even if its smoked the cats dont even eat it, and they wreck your reels and rods etc, we caught a massive sting ray once off the rocks, it totally smashed the rod and reel in the end we just had the line wrapped around a screw driver

SKILLZ!!!

Great video. Beautiful old Waka.

Good job

Pushing pretty marginal conditions there mate , especially with kids on board. maybe stick to slack tide.

Mean day bro, I notice in some of your vids you launch from Mangere. How long is the motor out to the bar from there? Are there any markers you line up to come in and out of the bar? Cheers 🤙🏻

Is that you ed?

No life jacket…….?

Great video. Very dangerous though. Lots have died crossing that bar. I don’t know why people insist on going out in those conditions. Check the weather, go on another day when its safer. Is it worth it

Never underestimate the 2 stroke Yammy! 🤙🏼

👍 "Promosm"

Captain is a pro trying to adjust, stay ahead of waves, concentrate and had to shush the woman. He has done this multiple times. Two strokes give you that instant torque to move the boat.

Uncles knows his line. 🤙🏼

One motor, if it fails your screwed.

OMG, this would be too nerve racking for this boater, and knowing those wave swells look bigger in person. Kudos to this calm and collective boat captain and young crew while safely navigating through these moving mountains!👍🤘

Hearty nice work

Solid trip, bro. Keep it up.

Go Rehobothh !! WOO HOOO!!

Awesome!!! Good confidence 👏

I think he did a superb job on a notoriously dangerous and ever changing bar, very well done.

shit it looks like you are way way too far to the North of the SW channel

Good work skipper

Doesn't look like their in the channel but literally on the sand bar

Nice work guys. Good sized snapper too!

Where this at?

This guy with the black shirt looks like he kidnapped theses people...lol

Lots laughing plus that boat goes hard out. Lucky you lot

Brother what model drone are you using?

Awesome video

The sea is like a washing machine

Nice work.

Well done. Small boats like this were a major concern for us while I was in the Coast Guard. Not everyone can manage rough seas in a boat meant for a lake.

Wow amazing fishing video my friend subscribe to my channel thank you ❤❤❤❤

😂

looks like an awesome day man i live for days like this

Pretty nice job for an amateur boater, if this is the case?

This is how us Kiwi’s roll on West Coast bars. Further north on the Kaipara can also be fun. Unlike all those bar crossings l see on here in the US - we do not run boats with open area / seating up the front - yet alone people sitting up there crossing bars…..Kia Kaha

Maori ate all the moriori. It's being reported as an ate crime. True story

You never wanna surf down a wave. Could broach. Pick one wave and ride the back of it all the way in.

Dang…a lil nerve racking there bro, great job mate

Rest In Peace! 😢

Driver did well here. Well done

Nice boat brother
