Miami Vice ... fantastic show & cast. Love Don & Philip in the leads. Wow ... really miss that show. Very sad when CBS took it off the air ... one of the best TV shows ever. ❤😊
The scene with Johnson and Phillip Michael Thomas on the Stinger, hitting those waves off shore, and it's clearly them, and not stunt people in the boat, is one of the coolest boating scenes ever filmed.
Just came back from Miami last week... Went to the marina where Crockett kept St Vitas Dance while hanging out in Biscayne Blvd and Bay.... Also the checked out the bldg where the assassin shot at Crockett on the sailboat, but killed the first captain instead before Castillo.... Was pretty neat actually to b there where all that took place back n the 80's ,and how much I followed all that... Was a surreal moment..
the St. Vitus Dance (42' Endeavor) is now part of a small charter fleet in the Keys. I stayed on it for 3 days in July and sailed out of the Keys on it. It's in rough shape.
Don Johnson was also a very accomplished offshore racer. He used to come down to New Orleans and visit with his friend restaurant entrepreneur Al Copeland. Al was a very big offshore racer. You might know or have seen Al's boat which had Popeyes written across the hull Al was the owner and founder of Popeye's fried chicken
Funny, I was thinking that watching the video. Calling him “a powerboat enthusiast” is laughable. He was a driver in Team USA, a world champion winner among many other wins. He drove with Kurt Russel in his crew, Chuck Norris was a driver for Al Copeland. They used to all race together, along with a half dozen soon to be convicted cocain traffickers. The 80’s were the pinnacle of hot shot, cowboys, in offshore racing, fueled by elicit drug money, propping up the industry behind the scenes.
I love the price it shows on the boats from that time and yes then was great times having that extreme fun times and not even thinking about $ yes I enjoyed those years , my back has not let me in a very long time now and I miss it all the time
Before the series begins Crockett is married to Caroline, with whom he had his son, William "Billy". Years of the Vice lifestyle (including a hit-man nearly killing all of them) caused their marriage to end in a painful divorce. Crockett began an on-again, off-again relationship with fellow Vice cop Gina Calabrese, usually when one or both needed comfort or someone to talk to. His other relationships were with a high-profile architect named Brenda, which caused him to sway from his duties, resulting in Tubbs being beaten up by a suspect. Then he moved on to Margaret, a New York woman who turned out to be working for someone trying to kill him, followed by Sara Davis, a flight stewardess who kept him company on her return flights to Miami (and died after one of the cocaine balloons in her GI tract came open); Dr. Theresa Lyons, who was a drug addict that he got help for in another state; Christine Von Marburg, who turned out to be a madam. He later met singer Caitlin Davies on assignment; after some friction they fell in love and married in a whirlwind romance, but she was killed over a year later by Frank Hackman. Upon hearing that Caitlin was pregnant, Crockett was driven to kill Hackman in cold blood. After Caitlin's death, Crockett had no further relationships aside from a brief affair with Kathleen Gilfords, but as his alter-ego, Sonny Burnett, he had flings with Miguel Manolo's art director Polly Wheeler, and Oscar Carrera's trophy wife Celeste. In his Crockett persona, he seems to prefer intelligent professional women, including those who are better educated than he is.
What was the small low-profile (black?) speedboat with twin outboards used in one episode that Sonny and Rico used in a scene chasing after a suspect. Anybody recall this?
The boat race episode? Cary 50 was not a race boat. Luxury offshore, but no race. Beautify appointments. But no stinking race. 1988 I toured one. Hell,you could live on it. Ain't no race boat. Just saying. 🤔🙀
Hey guys, if you love Miami Vice as much as I do, I just launched a new podcast called Vice and Easy! I run down the best outfits, songs, one-liners, and jokes, and play short clips from the show. Check me out!

Did not know that Don could drive or race boats..awesome.

Russ Ballard's song Voices playing over that scene is burned into my mind forever :)
Yeah voices was a great song to that scene and it's burned into my mind as well.
If you look at the closeup shot pmt looks green in the gills about to loose his lunch
Yep Johnson used to race boats professionally back in the eighties he knew exactly what he was doing.
@@bb-us4ew , a lot of people would be!
Was there ever a greater time than the 1980s?
NO!
No and never will be.
Nope!!!
No. The sad part is, they're gone for ever. The only thing left are the memories.
Never I loved the 1980s
Crockett’s Power boats were just as much a part of his undercover cop personality as much as his flashy speedy cars.
You got that right, pal
Don't forget. Scarreb built a Don Johnson signature edition powered by Lamborghini Twin V12's. In late 80's.
Nice to see Lester Kosko in the last section there. The mostly forgotten member of the Vice crew.

The 390x is an absolute beast of a boat!
Wish I could go back to the 80's.
Man! I miss this show!!! I miss the whole decade of the 80s!!!
"St. Vitus Dance" is a euphemism used in England for the movement you make when queuing for the toilet.
Tubbs dropping the lobster in the sea at Crocketts boat party always made me laugh
the St. Vitus Dance (42' Endeavor) is now part of a small charter fleet in the Keys. I stayed on it for 3 days in July and sailed out of the Keys on it. It's in rough shape.
That's cool that you got to sail on a tv boat is is still st Vitus dance or renamed?
A favorite show of mine in the 80s, good writing, music, action and acting for that time.
Happy 40th Anniversary Miami Vice!!!!! 🩷🩵🦩🌴🐊🌊😎
So Great!!
Thank you Miami Vice💟😃
Don’t mention it, pal

I've got photos of the Popeyes Catamaran in Miami or Lauderdale that my father took in the mid to late 80's.
cool !!, they used to race against Don Aronow !!

@alberttropea Now owns the 42' Endeavour that "Sonny" lived on! What a DREAM it is!
Well done whoever you are
Ever wonder if Don Johnson may still have boat they gave him ? And I wonder what would have become of the other 2 sail boats
I do wish they’d do a few mini series with the original cast as private detectives or bounty hunters after they left the department
I know a thing or two about boats, pal.
Let me tell you a couple of three things.
@@pigybak with a name like yours, you can go take a walk or two or three.

@CRASH ALEXANDER Ahhh ok, thank you! That thing was fast.
@CRASH ALEXANDER is that the one where he shoots Chris Cooper's character and drives off with Rico yelling at him
What about the fastest boat he drove the 105mph Talon cat
That was the Talon 25. My roommate owns it. It's in the backyard.
You ever consider a carrer in Southern law enforcement?
what exactly does that mean
@@artvandelay837 You didn't watch Miami Vice, did you
Two guys in pastel colors together on a boat. No women in sight. Was that part of their cover?
The boat race episode? Cary 50 was not a race boat. Luxury offshore, but no race. Beautify appointments. But no stinking race. 1988 I toured one. Hell,you could live on it. Ain't no race boat. Just saying. 🤔🙀
Octopussy isn't either but it would keep up with those
Today it's called Miami fart

Nice job, pal
I've caught a couple eps. good job👍
@@duncandmcgrath6290 Thank you so much!
30$ lobster back when money had value .
Now that's like 60 dollars.
More like $275, remember MV is almost 40 years ago.
Actually I just looked it up, it's approximately 79.10 dollars, still quite the increase!
Tubbs looked like he was going to vomit in the opening boat scene. Where they went to the Bahamas after caldrone
Yeah, Tubbs didnt have his sea legs yet. He was holding on for dear life ♥️
Dammit, this show was cheesy. But there were some nice boats. Im a Wellcraft man myself.
