Definitely take it back to the dealer to have those surge brakes looked at. We don't have huge hills here in TX but my boat trailer has similar weight and never turned the rotors purple..... And wear the kill switch lanyard. It's a ticket in all 50 states now.
I would disable that system all together , it's overkill when the trailer has disc brakes . Most older boat trailer's had drum brakes and they weren't even overworked coming down a hill . When safety systems make it unusable , sometimes you just have to break the rules .
@211 Well a quick google search will tell you you’re wrong. It literally says as of April 2021 it’s law for ant recreational boater to use it. Required by law. Also your argument is complete garbage, what does it matter if a boat doesn’t have a kill switch? It’s obviously required for newer boats that have them. 🤡 That would be like people in the late 60’s saying they don’t need to wear a seatbelt because there are still cars on the road that don’t have them installed. Laws change and affect things that are built AFTER the law is written. Give your head a shake boy.
When you're on the water take off the bumpers/fenders and put in a storage compartment. Pull em out and put on when docking or rafting to other boats, bouncing around will eventually scratch the clear coat. Nice lookin vessel, respect the water and enjoy!!
I always love it when people who aren't really into boats get a boat and start discovering all the new things they do with boats now. Companies like Sea Ray, Boston Whaler, Grady White, Windy, Axopar, Saxdor and a bunch of others have really made day boats that are extremely versatile, loaded with features, powerful, and filled with innovative features.
Before you go telling people to go “chill out on the back of the boat” watching the wakeboarders maybe you oughta read up on your coast guard regs. It’s illegal to sit facing backwards at the rear of the vessel outside of the main cockpit area when the vessel is in motion.
Beautiful boat, love the color and the features too. I think little sister is the rising star here, doing an awesome job doing the camera work and will soon be doing tricks on that wakeboard too. Probably a good idea to have that trailer checked out and pay close attention to those wheel bearings. Bring a little temperature gun with you to check them.
Just a quick comment for you guys! My parents just sold their Yamaha 242 limited s with the twin jet drive. A few things we found are DEFINITELY pull up the carpets before you go. Those snap in carpets are awesome but if you lose one you have to buy the whole set. 😵💫 The engines should still have some clean out ports in the back incase a rope or weeds get wrapped around the impeller. Vaseline on those help to make sure they seal. My parents had one pop up and the boat started to take on water, no big deal for the bilge though. just like any boat, open every compartment or it will get that skunky water smell. If the back seats still unsnap to get to the Clea. out ports put some small pieces of wood or something under them when you're done. It traps water under there and it begins to try to mold. Magic eraser works incredible to clean things 😁😁 Absolutely gorgeous boat and wishing you both the best in your adventures
Hoping for quick recoveries for both of you guys good to see you're keeping positive and can't wait to see you guys be able to wake board with the new boat will be epic to see you guys do something different and enjoy yourselves life is long and you guys have been working extremely hard and deserve more time to have fun and be with your friends and family
They are called ballast tanks and wakeboard usually have subfloor tanks and ballast bags in addition to that to surf adding more ballast bags would be almost necessary.
So glad you guys are healing quickly.Leaving the hands open to the air as much as possible allows the scabbing to dry and heal quicker.Wrap them at night,or obviously when going outside where dirt can get in.The boat is Awesome.A 'Porta-potty' is a definite Plus.You don't have to cut trips short.Congratulations GoonzQuad ! Your years of hard work are paying you back with some comforts,great homes,and all the Fans who count on your entertaining us too.
If your brakes keep getting that hot going up down the mountain.. I'd check with the dealership or check the manual. If they fail..it could end very bad. Good lucky boys🤟
@@EricSchutt it constantly amazes me how these boys know so much but so little at the same time. Anyone who knows anything knows those brakes are locked on and cooked and that's why the raptor is struggling.
@@VictorNUribe the cameras will be more for security outside. A window in the office would be good so that they can see things when they are in the office. But you are correct. Most likely they will not be in the office much. They have so many office spaces in the other buildings and they are hardly there.
I have been launching and retrieving boat for about 25 years with no issues. One thing I have learned over the years is put your truck in 4x4 before backing into water and setting your emergency break this will lock your front tires if the back one start to slip in the water.
Doesn’t sound right to have really really hot brakes then quenching them in water. Definitely need to talk to the dealership about that. Love the channel boys!!
The brakes wouldn't still be on and would've cooled by the time they got to the water. It seems like theirs may need to be adjusted since they have to drive downhill so far. They might not have the issue anymore if they keep the boat at the shop and not up the mountain.
@@johncarter1137 I doubt there's air in the lines. My buddy had the same problem with surge brakes and they just needed to be adjusted. It is possibly there's air, but unlikely.
100% Agree - While hydraulic / surge trailer brakes can be adjusted there is also technique to driving downhill on this kind of trailer setup. For the most part surge break activation is binary meaning ON or OFF. If the driver is applying short burst 35-40% brake applications while traversing a 45 degree grade such as the mountain driveway the trailer piston will translate this to full brake application which will cause the trailer breaking system to overheat. Best method to navigate a steep grade on a heavy rig with hydraulic surge brakes is with gear shifting, If this is not an option (automatic trans without low gear standard shifting) then avoid short bursts with longer >15% brake applications.
You boys are living the life in rough times for a lot of people. Good for you guys, you deserve everything that comes your way working and hustling as much as you do. Enjoy the content guys. Can’t wait to see what the future holds
We know your recovering, take care of yourselves and get better. The loyal watchers will be here for you 100% and watch whatever videos you upload. Keep up the good work, happy birthday and the new boat is sick!
Awesome video, it's great to have your sister involved. Love the unleashed channel. She does great filming you all. Can't wait to see what the future holds
It's so nice that you can do different uploads, when you are both injured. The boat is even sweeter on the water. You have to take Pop's on the water, he looks really interested in it.
Awesome videos. Feel better. Here's the scoop regarding your brakes. Your current surge brakes aren't good for going down mountain roads. When descending the mountain side, the weight of the boat and trailer push against your truck, causing the brake actuator in the trailer's tongue to compress which applies the trailer brakes. Purple colored rotors are definitely a sign of the overheating. The surge brake actuator that came with your trailer usually works OK, but it's horrible for descending mountainsides. Ditch that brake actuator, and upgrade your system to use an electro-hydraulic brake actuator on your trailer and add a full-featured inertia sensing electronic brake controller to your truck. Ditch the surge brakes and the factory brake controller. You live on a mountainside... your use is not "typical', and so the typical solution that is fine for most people isn't very good for the Goonzquad! Anyone else wanna comment?
Great to see you guys enjoying the fruits of your labor. You have one of the best work ethics I've seen on TH-cam and should reap the rewards. Awesome boat anchors away....
You guys are killing it, like someone said before “both of y’all are injured and still grinding”. Keep up the good videos but as a boat guy I must suggest only use non-ethanol gas. You never have to worry about fuel issues and with a boat like that you can afford it. Looking forward to some more boat videos, I live in eastern NC but have family in Chattanooga. Keep up the good work!
Nice to you guys having a great time with the new boat. Good to see you’re both healing up pretty well. Definitely keep an eye on those brakes, doesn’t seem normal. Great seeing the shop nearly complete. Take care and hope you’re doing better soon.
I think the surge breaks on the trailer are adjustable. They are not supposed to smoke and turn the rotors purple. Let the dealer know snd check it out. That setup has been around a long time, the 97 sundowner 225 im buying has surge breaks too and twin axle disc breaks - the rotors aren't purple.
Congrats on the engagement Simeon, beautiful couple! Well deserved break guys, been with you guys since the beginning, and you guys never stop, so heal up and we got your backs! Praise God, and give glory to the Lamb.
@@jackalterman Jack you know what’s the great thing about living here in the good ‘ol USA? It’s the fact you can choose who you listen to or watch . So why don’t you exercise some of that freedom and go somewhere else buddy.
I always had an Aloe vera plant from the local garden center. By breaking off one of the leafs and using the sap by rubbing the sap on our burns to help with our healing and it will also help to minimizing the scaring. We always had an Aloe vera plant around when growing up as kid in Hawaii and we now have a plant growing in our sunroom here in Connecticut. You can also refrigerate the rest of the leaf so may use it for the next day. There's so many other uses for the plant by just Google it. Wonderful to see that you both are recovering and will start working on your cars soon.
@@jackalterman Seriously? These boyz have been grinding for a long time. They deserve everything they have and more. It did not happen overnight. They have built it though sweat equity and very little capital from the beginning. Editing videos alone is incredibly time consuming. This is not a 9-5, this is their everyday, all day. I am far from a kiss ass fanboy for anyone, but I appreciate and applaud anyone willing to GRIND for success.
@@jackalterman I am a 46 year old, I started working at 15, went in to the military right after graduation, following the military I started a career that has been going for 24 years. No silver spoon, No formal education. I have hired many privileged associates that are their ages and they do not grind nearly as hard as these guys. I hope my three children have their drive and follow their passion like these guys. Yes I will help my kids if I am able financially, if not I will encourage them through setting the example of a strong work ethic to get what you want while doing what others wont. I do not know these guys personally but have been watching for years and from what I can tell, it is not privilege that set them up for success.
It’s a nice boat but will be a shame to see them not take care of it. I guarantee it sits out in the sun unprotected with no cover or they park it under trees with no cover
You guys are absolutely amazing. Y'all are hurt and still finding something to film and get something out there. I love everything y'all do it's truly amazing.
I was really worried you guys were going to give it up. My favorite channel on TH-cam I have not missed a video in 2 years since I've been watching. Stay positive and get well soon guys you deserve that boat! Keep up the hard work.
How could they? They have no other income and a huge amount of debt. No way they could sustain their lifestyle without TH-cam. Even if they sold up everything they wouldn't live long on the money. Can you imagine the mortgage payments on those houses? Plus they are supporting their parents and younger siblings.
There's no way they're giving it up. Especially since one got burned by a pot and the other fell off a board lol Plus this is their job. They make good money and get to have fun everyday. Quitting you tube *billy voice* that's insane!
As an owner, make sure you clean those motors out real well when youre done for the day. Also use chain lube inside that engine bay and spray it all down once every few months. With you being on fresh water it isnt as bad, but take proper care of these things because the bills get high if you dont. Start your motors at least once every 2 weeks with connected running water and let it run for about 5 min. Follow storage guidelines to a T when winterizing the motor. Most of all have fun, they're an absolute blast to own!
Check with TN to see what other safety equipment is required. In OH you need flares, a horn or whistle, anchor, lines, fenders AND a license if you were born after 1980…
Congrats on the new Boat Fellas...Just a bit of advice if you will...make sure you keep that boat waxed and compound and wax it before every season!! Super important with those colors !! Blue and Gray are known to fade faster them other colors so you have to stay on top of it Guys ! She looks amazing...Enjoy !
You fellas are doing great with slowing down for recovery.👍🏼...CONGRATS on the boat! You're a good man Si. Alright gentlemen. Stay in recovery mode for a while longer. We're not going anywhere.🍻
You should buy and hook up a trailer brake for your truck it will help to adjust the brakes on the trailer, it isn’t the trailers fault it’s the lack of brake controller on you’re truck. That makes it run the brakes harder then it should
Some free advise, if the TWRA catches you standing on the bow while underway they will write you a ticket that you will never forget! Take the time and learn all of the rules and laws of boating, and enjoy all your time on the water.
Hello guys, it's a pleasure to greet you, in my case, I burned my face with water from a car radiator and what I used was an ointment with silver nitrate for burns, there were no marks left and it healed relatively quickly. I hope the information is useful to you. Greetings from Monclova, Coahuila. Mexico
You’ll have an easier time starting the wake surf on your feet versus knees. Just let the board float. Set your heals on it and as the boat pulls, push down and stand up, the fins will straighten up the board. Easy as that! Great job. Love the videos
Just spotted something you MUST be aware of guys ..... Make sure that there are no tree branches overhanging on the drive up to the house on the mountain .. if a branch snags the canvas roof of the boat that will be a disaster.
Nice seeing your sister on the channel. Always nice with some fresh blood and I figured she was the one filming parts on the video. She's gotten really good at it. Keep up the good work!
As far as the privacy fence goes, you guys are definitely able to install a fence, and make it look really good. Being a fence installer, I'd stay away from wooden posts, they rot over time. Instead go with a vinyl privacy, steel privacy, or wooden privacy with steel posts (called postmaster posts by Master Halco). Any video By SWI fencing or Mr. fence on TH-cam will teach you guys the right way to build without wasting your time. Excited to see what you guys do!
You guys work hard and have some awesome toys to show for it, and I can't help but notice I've never seen a single beer can or liquor bottle in the background. I'm guessing you don't drink, and I'm guessing that's correlated with your success. Keep up the Hi-Cs and good work fellas.
@@shootpse88 just like if you eat candy doesn't mean you can't be a bodybuilder. Of course you can. You just won't be the best at it. The most hard-core drug users can be extremely successful, at least for a while.
I'd put the pin in place to keep the trailer brakes from engaging while bringing it down the mountain, and just take your time going down and then remove the pin once you're on regular roads running regular speeds. As dark as the rotors got I'd say those pads are now burnt and glazed over, and that kind of heat can also burn the grease in the trailer hubs, so I'd check them also.
Holy shit, are you serious? You're saying NOT to use the trailer brakes while going down hill? That boat will push you clear off the mountain without brakes.
@@calvinh.8882 Yamaha claims the boat to weight 4750lb, plus trailer. That's probably 2500kg. The truck weight 6000lb. Or 2700kg. You're saying going downhill, on tight switchbacks and blind turns, even going slow if there's somebody coming the other way on the wrong side of the road and you hit the brakes that the boat isn't push you sideways? My race car on a trailer is 1500kg. My BMW X5 is 2200kg. It pushes me around if I leave the lockout engaged. Fuck, I've had an EMPTY road train come around on itself on a tight turn and it has brakes on every axle!
@@1one3_Racing That is exactly what I'm saying if you're going slow as I stated. That boat will not push that truck around going 25mph I've towed boats for years, some 10ft longer than that one, and they are not going to push you around at 25mph. If they don't want to take that chance then they should use the RAM or the F-450 to pull it. The rear suspension on that Raptor sucks at towing anyway.
@@calvinh.8882 at 25mph those brakes wouldn't smoke like that. I was doing about 90kmh and my electric brakes came on and stayed on for a few km and they didn't glow like that.
Soo sorry (Miskay) for your pain and suffering due to the injuries ,but, happy that you guys are suffering well and like Warriors..I have smudged and said a Native American prayer for you guys ,Billy and Simon, and hope you heal up soon..Walalin Jiganum (thank you buddy) for your education and training for this old Injun Dude..
Goonzquad , it's more than just a name .... it's a worldwide family of people from many different backgrounds, creeds..colour... sexual orientation , it's one nation , and the love from around the world goes out to the family in Chattanooga, we are wishing you both a speedy recovery .... Just one promise from you guys.... no helicopters please !.
You guys will recover fast. You are both extremely active so it makes recovery faster. Don’t worry about getting videos out guys, take your time. Cant wait for future vids!
Gooooooonzquad train wreck..... Pulling into some sand bars full of gravel is really good on your boat bottom and the don't worry about the trailer brakes turning purple. LOL Yamaha owners manual says no continuous full throttle for 8 another hours after the initial 1.35 break in but hey it only cost 110K. These clowns will have this nice boat trashed in a month and worst part is they won't even care.
Work hard play hard..you guys deserve it..... heal up..... take all the time you need..... looking forward to seeing you both healed and putting up content.
Here u are guys. Enjoying the most beautiful thing in life. Life itself. The moment you stop, everyone will miss u a lot. You are an inspiration to most of your fans. I want to keep watching your videos until I turn 99 years old :)
I'm glad you're healing guys, Simeon I used to have this ointment called SSD or silvadine it's what the nurses called it, it's by prescription only, I had a deep wound on my ankle from a spider bite, it's an antibiotic and it helps anywhere you have an oozing wound, but follow your doctors direction and you too Elazar I really hope the nerves in your fingers weren't damaged and your finger prints either, don't rush it you're both young you'll heal quickly.
those hubs on the trailer tire pop off and they have grease traps in there. USE THE GREASE EVERY TIME YOU GO OUT! Especially if you're going into salt water. Your engine will most likely have grease traps too. I've never had a inboard engine cause the possibility of blowing up but make sure you turn those fans on before starting that boat. That engine might also have grease areas make sure you check. Any metal on the outside and near the transom you want to grease. Screws, bolts anything you want to last. Expect to replace everything on a boat every few years, there's a reason why boat stands for bust out another thousand. Stay safe out there
The Raptor seems to be squatting with the boat. I'd be using the HD Silverado to pull the boat. You should wrap the Silverado to match the boat. Also I'd just block off the trailer brakes when going down the mountain, the Silverado would be more apt to handle all that load on its brakes then the Raptor.
I think chain link all the way around and slide in privacy strips in the back. I can't remember what they call them but they are just metal straps that slide into the links. I suggest this because chain link will out last most fence. By the way, I love the boat! You guys rock!!! Keep up the great work 👍
Definitely take it back to the dealer to have those surge brakes looked at. We don't have huge hills here in TX but my boat trailer has similar weight and never turned the rotors purple..... And wear the kill switch lanyard. It's a ticket in all 50 states now.
Pretty sure coming down hill the weight of the boat is pushing hard on the surge brake.
Pretty sure they had that locker pin in for backing up but had it in the wrong way and the brakes where always on coming down the hill
I would disable that system all together , it's overkill when the trailer has disc brakes . Most older boat trailer's had drum brakes and they weren't even overworked coming down a hill . When safety systems make it unusable , sometimes you just have to break the rules .

Makes you wonder how much they understand about disc brakes. Car or trailer don't matter blue purple disc's that are smoking ain't right.
yeah and aside from the other comments, learn the difference between brakes and breaks there obwan.
The boat is very sweet but we enjoy watching you all fix stuff.
Congrats on the engagement Simeon, beautiful couple! Well deserved break guys, been with you guys since the beginning, and you guys never stop, so heal up and we got your backs! Praise God, and give glory to the Lamb.
@@jackalterman it’s a reference to Christ. The Lamb of God
@@jackalterman Jack you know what’s the great thing about living here in the good ‘ol USA? It’s the fact you can choose who you listen to or watch . So why don’t you exercise some of that freedom and go somewhere else buddy.
@@jackalterman They have stated before that they were Christians.
Engagement Simeon?
Amen to the Lamb!
I always had an Aloe vera plant from the local garden center. By breaking off one of the leafs and using the sap by rubbing the sap on our burns to help with our healing and it will also help to minimizing the scaring. We always had an Aloe vera plant around when growing up as kid in Hawaii and we now have a plant growing in our sunroom here in Connecticut. You can also refrigerate the rest of the leaf so may use it for the next day.
There's so many other uses for the plant by just Google it.
Wonderful to see that you both are recovering and will start working on your cars soon.
STRAIGHT UP the hardest working family on TH-cam. LET'S GO GOONZQUAD 💪
Thanks for going through our videos.⬆️☝️

@@jackalterman He also said "on TH-cam", not overall. I highly doubt he meant it 100% anyway, it's just something people say. Lighten up bro
@@jackalterman Seriously? These boyz have been grinding for a long time. They deserve everything they have and more. It did not happen overnight. They have built it though sweat equity and very little capital from the beginning. Editing videos alone is incredibly time consuming. This is not a 9-5, this is their everyday, all day. I am far from a kiss ass fanboy for anyone, but I appreciate and applaud anyone willing to GRIND for success.
@@jackalterman I am a 46 year old, I started working at 15, went in to the military right after graduation, following the military I started a career that has been going for 24 years. No silver spoon, No formal education. I have hired many privileged associates that are their ages and they do not grind nearly as hard as these guys. I hope my three children have their drive and follow their passion like these guys. Yes I will help my kids if I am able financially, if not I will encourage them through setting the example of a strong work ethic to get what you want while doing what others wont. I do not know these guys personally but have been watching for years and from what I can tell, it is not privilege that set them up for success.
i watch every video that comes in i don't want to miss anything of your amazing goonzquad team and garage and cars and boat❤️😎🍀🤑
That is one badass boat!
It’s a nice boat but will be a shame to see them not take care of it. I guarantee it sits out in the sun unprotected with no cover or they park it under trees with no cover
@@Henley3276 I was thinking the same but I really hope that doesn’t happen.
@@Henley3276 i think you missed the part where they said they a have 1000 dollar cover and parking inside thats why they not using it.
@@bishoos123 I’ve watched these boys for years. They don’t take care of shit.
You guys are absolutely amazing. Y'all are hurt and still finding something to film and get something out there. I love everything y'all do it's truly amazing.
I was really worried you guys were going to give it up. My favorite channel on TH-cam I have not missed a video in 2 years since I've been watching. Stay positive and get well soon guys you deserve that boat! Keep up the hard work.
How could they? They have no other income and a huge amount of debt. No way they could sustain their lifestyle without TH-cam. Even if they sold up everything they wouldn't live long on the money. Can you imagine the mortgage payments on those houses? Plus they are supporting their parents and younger siblings.
There's no way they're giving it up. Especially since one got burned by a pot and the other fell off a board lol Plus this is their job. They make good money and get to have fun everyday. Quitting you tube *billy voice* that's insane!
As an owner, make sure you clean those motors out real well when youre done for the day. Also use chain lube inside that engine bay and spray it all down once every few months. With you being on fresh water it isnt as bad, but take proper care of these things because the bills get high if you dont. Start your motors at least once every 2 weeks with connected running water and let it run for about 5 min. Follow storage guidelines to a T when winterizing the motor. Most of all have fun, they're an absolute blast to own!
Make sure you have a life jacket on board for everyone that is aboard your sweet new boat! 👍
Check with TN to see what other safety equipment is required. In OH you need flares, a horn or whistle, anchor, lines, fenders AND a license if you were born after 1980…
Congrats on the new Boat Fellas...Just a bit of advice if you will...make sure you keep that boat waxed and compound and wax it before every season!! Super important with those colors !! Blue and Gray are known to fade faster them other colors so you have to stay on top of it Guys ! She looks amazing...Enjoy !
Hey boys, that new Yamaha Boat is Super Dope, great video and hope the recovery is going well
Stay safe 👍😁👍
Ngl your guys videos will never get old whatever y’all put out is epic every single time
I hope you guys get better, and I really enjoy your videos that you do.
Take your time and heal, both of you! You guys are awesome!
You fellas are doing great with slowing down for recovery.👍🏼...CONGRATS on the boat! You're a good man Si. Alright gentlemen. Stay in recovery mode for a while longer. We're not going anywhere.🍻
You should buy and hook up a trailer brake for your truck it will help to adjust the brakes on the trailer, it isn’t the trailers fault it’s the lack of brake controller on you’re truck. That makes it run the brakes harder then it should
Glad to see you guys are recovering well! That boat is bada$$. Love the content and the Dang Sauce is great! We are on our second bottle!
That Boat is Awesome!!
Some free advise, if the TWRA catches you standing on the bow while underway they will write you a ticket that you will never forget!
Take the time and learn all of the rules and laws of boating, and enjoy all your time on the water.
Props to Yamaha for making amazing boats. I’ve always been a fan of mastercraft boats but I wouldn’t mind having one of these
Yes chef has all .kdel taha k et boa even yamha protégé 315 heat yaggt wrdbg dary review first hett yaght

Rookie move, driving around with the fender hanging off of the side.
?
Poor seamanship.
Surf board!
they're indeed new to this boat stuff, don't need to be toxic
Hello guys, it's a pleasure to greet you, in my case, I burned my face with water from a car radiator and what I used was an ointment with silver nitrate for burns, there were no marks left and it healed relatively quickly. I hope the information is useful to you.
Greetings from Monclova, Coahuila. Mexico
You’ll have an easier time starting the wake surf on your feet versus knees. Just let the board float. Set your heals on it and as the boat pulls, push down and stand up, the fins will straighten up the board. Easy as that! Great job. Love the videos
Congratulations to you guys, you deserve have a nice boat 🛥 and much more , enjoy!!
Just spotted something you MUST be aware of guys ..... Make sure that there are no tree branches overhanging on the drive up to the house on the mountain .. if a branch snags the canvas roof of the boat that will be a disaster.

One would only hope they have enough common since to know that.
Nice seeing your sister on the channel. Always nice with some fresh blood and I figured she was the one filming parts on the video. She's gotten really good at it. Keep up the good work!
Congrats hope to heal faster and do the good work your doing.

As far as the privacy fence goes, you guys are definitely able to install a fence, and make it look really good. Being a fence installer, I'd stay away from wooden posts, they rot over time. Instead go with a vinyl privacy, steel privacy, or wooden privacy with steel posts (called postmaster posts by Master Halco). Any video By SWI fencing or Mr. fence on TH-cam will teach you guys the right way to build without wasting your time. Excited to see what you guys do!
You guys work hard and have some awesome toys to show for it, and I can't help but notice I've never seen a single beer can or liquor bottle in the background. I'm guessing you don't drink, and I'm guessing that's correlated with your success. Keep up the Hi-Cs and good work fellas.
Just because you like a few beers every now and then doesn't mean you cant be successful!
They have said previously they like a drink or 2.....
I feel like they just don’t recorded it to be family friendly. Life comes with balance my friend
@@shootpse88 just like if you eat candy doesn't mean you can't be a bodybuilder. Of course you can. You just won't be the best at it. The most hard-core drug users can be extremely successful, at least for a while.
Yeah, That's nice, but we don't know what they do off camera.
What's most important is that you two heal. Take the time you need...your true fans will be here when you are ready. Be safe.
My hope for y'all is a speedy recovery. Y'all please be careful and stay safe. Lots of love from your friend in Rougemont,NC
Simeon is the sexy one
We appreciate the dedication to putting out great videos but please take care of yourself and heal. I wish you guys the best
I'd put the pin in place to keep the trailer brakes from engaging while bringing it down the mountain, and just take your time going down and then remove the pin once you're on regular roads running regular speeds. As dark as the rotors got I'd say those pads are now burnt and glazed over, and that kind of heat can also burn the grease in the trailer hubs, so I'd check them also.
Holy shit, are you serious?
You're saying NOT to use the trailer brakes while going down hill? That boat will push you clear off the mountain without brakes.
@@1one3_Racing No it will not. That truck outweighs that boat, and if you do the speed limit which is prob' 25mph on that back road you'll be fine.
@@calvinh.8882 Yamaha claims the boat to weight 4750lb, plus trailer. That's probably 2500kg. The truck weight 6000lb. Or 2700kg.
You're saying going downhill, on tight switchbacks and blind turns, even going slow if there's somebody coming the other way on the wrong side of the road and you hit the brakes that the boat isn't push you sideways?
My race car on a trailer is 1500kg. My BMW X5 is 2200kg. It pushes me around if I leave the lockout engaged.
Fuck, I've had an EMPTY road train come around on itself on a tight turn and it has brakes on every axle!
@@1one3_Racing That is exactly what I'm saying if you're going slow as I stated. That boat will not push that truck around going 25mph I've towed boats for years, some 10ft longer than that one, and they are not going to push you around at 25mph.
If they don't want to take that chance then they should use the RAM or the F-450 to pull it. The rear suspension on that Raptor sucks at towing anyway.
@@calvinh.8882 at 25mph those brakes wouldn't smoke like that. I was doing about 90kmh and my electric brakes came on and stayed on for a few km and they didn't glow like that.
Soo sorry (Miskay) for your pain and suffering due to the injuries ,but, happy that you guys are suffering well and like Warriors..I have smudged and said a Native American prayer for you guys ,Billy and Simon, and hope you heal up soon..Walalin Jiganum (thank you buddy) for your education and training for this old Injun Dude..
You two are awesome. Just remember to take those bumpers in when away from the dock, we call that "sailing dirty"...
Heal up boys!!! You have a lot of exciting things to do!
Goonzquad , it's more than just a name .... it's a worldwide family of people from many different backgrounds, creeds..colour... sexual orientation , it's one nation , and the love from around the world goes out to the family in Chattanooga, we are wishing you both a speedy recovery .... Just one promise from you guys.... no helicopters please !.
Congrats on the new boat and thank you for everything you do!
Put a hitch on the Porsche pull the boat with it 💪❤️🔥 that would be epic!!!...

You guys will recover fast. You are both extremely active so it makes recovery faster. Don’t worry about getting videos out guys, take your time. Cant wait for future vids!
Gooooooonzquad train wreck..... Pulling into some sand bars full of gravel is really good on your boat bottom and the don't worry about the trailer brakes turning purple. LOL Yamaha owners manual says no continuous full throttle for 8 another hours after the initial 1.35 break in but hey it only cost 110K. These clowns will have this nice boat trashed in a month and worst part is they won't even care.
Work hard play hard..you guys deserve it..... heal up..... take all the time you need..... looking forward to seeing you both healed and putting up content.
Just an fyi never drive a boat trailer into the water after a long drive, you ruin the pads and brakes.
man i wish my brotherly relationship was like yours. just found you guys... so far i like your video's
the boat is too heavy for the RAPTOR check the towing ratings use the SILVERADO or the F450

Here u are guys. Enjoying the most beautiful thing in life. Life itself. The moment you stop, everyone will miss u a lot. You are an inspiration to most of your fans. I want to keep watching your videos until I turn 99 years old :)
First
🏆
I'm glad you're healing guys, Simeon I used to have this ointment called SSD or silvadine it's what the nurses called it, it's by prescription only, I had a deep wound on my ankle from a spider bite, it's an antibiotic and it helps anywhere you have an oozing wound, but follow your doctors direction and you too Elazar I really hope the nerves in your fingers weren't damaged and your finger prints either, don't rush it you're both young you'll heal quickly.
you guys came to the next gen. I'm watching you all those years. supper happy about that.
Dude you guys would stand out in so cal but fit right in. Great video!
those hubs on the trailer tire pop off and they have grease traps in there. USE THE GREASE EVERY TIME YOU GO OUT! Especially if you're going into salt water. Your engine will most likely have grease traps too. I've never had a inboard engine cause the possibility of blowing up but make sure you turn those fans on before starting that boat. That engine might also have grease areas make sure you check. Any metal on the outside and near the transom you want to grease. Screws, bolts anything you want to last. Expect to replace everything on a boat every few years, there's a reason why boat stands for bust out another thousand. Stay safe out there
The Raptor seems to be squatting with the boat. I'd be using the HD Silverado to pull the boat. You should wrap the Silverado to match the boat.
Also I'd just block off the trailer brakes when going down the mountain, the Silverado would be more apt to handle all that load on its brakes then the Raptor.
I think chain link all the way around and slide in privacy strips in the back. I can't remember what they call them but they are just metal straps that slide into the links. I suggest this because chain link will out last most fence. By the way, I love the boat! You guys rock!!! Keep up the great work 👍
I absolutely love your boating videos. Keep them coming
Get well boys. We are all wishing you a fast recovery
God bless you and your family and heal up fast guys. I am surprised you didn't take any time off and it shows your commitment to the channel.
