    Welcome to my latest adventure on Lido Key! 🌊 In this captivating TH-cam video, you're in for a front-row seat as I tackle the challenge of recovering an overturned and submerged Bayliner boat. 🚤💦

    Well done Capt. Dont listen to all the armchair skippers, it's real easy to criticize and speculate from an easy chair. Get them out single handed in a 15 knot wind with a 5 knot current and let's sea how they do then. Keep up the great work😎🌴👍🏻

      Safe to say, if you leave that rear bilge inspection port open with wake over the stern, any boat will take on water and sink.

    Single handed is tough…keep your deck clean and lines “organized/wrapped”…takes a minute but saves time in the long run and is MUCH SAFER, made me nervous a few times thinking you might trip or get wrapped up, not to mention the lines tangling with each other. Just meant to be advice not criticize…the OCD in me isn’t always practical but in this case would help be more safe, effective and efficient 😊

      This guy could have been better prepared, a small jump battery would have pumped the bilge dry by now.

    • @CaptKenO
      @CaptKenO  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      You're right, I wasn't well prepared for this job. The transom was under water, so even a large gas pump wouldn't have been able to pump the boat dry. That's why I needed it to drain a bit first before I put the pump on there

    • @CaptKenO
      @CaptKenO  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      You're definitely right. A clean deck is much safer and generally more efficient. I would've been more concerned if I had someone else on board, but I was aware of which lines were in use and made sure to stay clear of them. I usually keep a pretty clean deck, but I was a bit overwhelmed here seeing as I was figuring this all out on the fly

      @@CaptKenO i completely understand being a bit overwhelmed…you did awesome especially first time solo for this maneuver. Kuddos for not only reaching out to “BOSS” for confirmation but for leaving it in the video…too many people want to pretend that there is no learning curve and that they were masters straight out of diapers lol…that being said… you admitted the ropes were hazard to yourself even stated you would’ve been more careful if others were on board, the fact that you were alone makes it even more important because everything is fine until it isn’t…great job. A successful tow, only advice once again is to work on a plan to have things in place (hooks, buckets, Velcro wraps, etc) to have an even better experience next time…trust me it will/would help with being less overwhelmed. Messy deck is a messy mind no matter how much you understand or know of the organized chaos 😊

    Great job doing that single handed, especially given it’s your first time. I’ve only ever seen it done with at least two people, and with one person slowly releasing the stern line as the boat gets on the plane. I would imagine that the submerged t-top could do some damage to a hull or lower unit if anyone hit it.

    You recognized the boat had enough water to want to pitch back over, but your lines could have killed you. Take the line you know is clear, and quickly wrap it around a cleat and gas it. It'll be faster and safer.
    And yes, barnacles hurt. I was glad to see you put the shoes on.
    I know it can get crazy on deck with lines everywhere, but please get a system down.
    Without a crew and only having little guidance, you did a fantastic job. Glad you didn't get a limb in those lines after you gassed it and are here to talk about.

    • @CaptKenO
      @CaptKenO  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I knew which line was the "live" line (and that it was already tied off to the tow post) and made sure I was clear of it before gunning it...but yeah, still not the safest situation to have all those lines and hoses on deck. I'm usually good about keeping a clean deck for that reason, but I was a bit overwhelmed here if you couldn't tell 🤫

    What brand and size line are you running for your towing gear? Looking to switch on all of my towboats, I'm on inland lakes and river towboat ports in the desert heat so my gear gets abused. Just considering switching and enjoy watching the videos while it's too cold for boaters to be out playing on my waterways!

    • @CaptKenO
      @CaptKenO  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks Bryan! My boss is friends with a rigging supplier, so he got some leftover line from a production run, but I believe it's the 9/16 Plasma 12 strand made by Cortland. It's minimum tensile strength is ~38k lbs, so you'll probably never even come close to breaking it

    Couldn't you have used just one piece of ground tackle, as in an anchor attached to the rear cleat closest to the tug boat, going to an anchor set in the sand away from the flipped boat, opposite the tug boat. Then attach your lines, as you did, and just pull away from the flipped boat. The anchor would drag, just a bit, but as you pull, the boat would flip over, right side up. Let go the line to the anchor and pull the boat up out of the water as you did. Might have been easier on the "super structure ".?? Just a thought.

    • @CaptKenO
      @CaptKenO  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks Brian! Andrewh isn't too far off. It was partly an operator error and partly a boat club failure. The bilge hatch was missing which let the water in and the bilge pump wasn't working...but the club member beached the boat (which they weren't supposed to do with that boat) and with it beached, the stern was low and took waves over the stern

    • @CaptKenO

    When by yourself you should definitely have some sort of kill switch, if you ever had a foot wrapped around one of those lines and you give it throttle then walk to the back of the boat you can consider yourself fish food Imho. Impressive solo job none the less.

    • @CaptKenO

      It would take a lot of work to get my foot stuck in a line, give the boat throttle, and then walk to the back of the boat and fall overboard... But it could happen 😂
      A kill switch isn't going to help though, because in order to walk to the back of the boat I'd have to disconnect it. I do have a knife on my life jacket and a plb, so if I do fall overboard, the boat may be gone, but the coast guard will know where to pick me up

      I watch just about every TH-cam channel just like this one. I see countless boats of every shape, style and brand. This is the first Bayliner shown to have sunk. Do these have a reputation of sinking in more often than others?

    • @CaptKenO
      @CaptKenO  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      From personal experience. No. I wouldn't say they do. The build quality is just subpar. For example, the T Top was screwed into the fiberglass with only a half dozen screws, instead of bolts and backing plates

      Yes it is. It took on a lot of water over the stern. Not sure exactly how boats roll over when they sink, but my guess would be that they don't fill with water evenly, so one side will be a bit heavier than the other

    • @CaptKenO
      @CaptKenO  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      No it's not the boat fault it sunk, but it is that the T Top came off. It's common knowledge that Bayliners just aren't high quality boats, and that's evident by the fact the T Top and console were only held to the deck by a dozen screws screwed directly into the deck. Not bolted through like they should be for a solid connection

    Not trying to split hairs because I hear everyone use the term but that's not parbuckling it's riteing. Parbuckling involves a parbuckle which is a decreasing open loop used to move something, modern salvers use the term parbuckle for a riteing arm now and call it parbuckling but it's not. A parbuckle or parbuckling was used on ships to raise cannons or barrels or other cargo when a hoist or yardarm wasn't available. Just to reiterate I liked your video and I'm not trying to be a dick, just some trivia.
