- Arrived on scene to a boat doing circles near the Roosevelt Bridge in Stuart. Passenger was ejected when their cable steering broke, and were not wearing their safety lanyards. Was able to successfully tangle the runaway boat's prop causing to immediately stop.
Folks. Watch and learn. This clip is good knowledge. He's throwing a floating line to foul the prop and stall the engine. It's a simple and effective solution to a runaway boat problem. Your ski line floats and in a pinch can be used in a similar way. This solution is great to know and is much safer than trying to board. Good stuff.
Thanks!! I kept rewatching trying to figure how that line got on the boat but it went into the propeller to kill it! Sweet!
You keep getting better at the run away boat thing. The Bouy on the end of the tangle rope was a great trick.
Every video you post impresses the hell out of me. You should have your own reality show.
A grappler for runaway boats, how cool ! Thanks
Nothing but skill/professionalism
That's a neat tactic to stop a runaway boat! Pretty interesting, thanks for posting.
It's about the only way. The safest option atleast
Great job captain
Hey, you went fishing and caught yourself a boat! Good job!
My cousin and a friend were tossed out of the family's 14' wood dual cockpit, 1955-57 35 Evinrude, back in the late 60's. Probably goofin' off. Cold spring day on the Pend Oreille River near the junction of the Lake. Controls were loose, it rattled over and started chasing them, finally the loose throttle rattled back, and one of them snagged the bow line "on the way by." If one or both didn't get it from the prop, they would have died from the cold. "Lucky."
Isn't there supposed to be some kind of "kill-switch" tether thingy attached to the driver and the boat?
Nice maneuvering brother.
That was pretty damn slick!
That happened to me in my car on the 15 North, but the shore patrol wouldn't help me.
I like it!
I must have missed it……….what did you do to shut it off ?
Full how I did it is on another video.. I didn’t show it here.
Damn
I hope they measured it. FWC will fine them if it’s too big.
Simple, safe and effective!
Captain must be a cowboy he got that boat with his rope
Very interesting they foul the prop causing the engine to stall.
Great save. I love it when people try jumping into the boat. Lol
I cringe every time I see that!
And THAT friends is how you do that
Good job Captain!
That's cheating!
I was expecting them to chase the boat around and around. lol
Never leave your engine running when you run in the beer store, even on the water.
Damn-how’s the family who got thrown off?
They were ok thankfully, luckily there weren’t any children on board.
Some people shouldn’t own boats, or procreate
I have a kill switch with a lanyard for my 15 hp Evinrude. About $20.00.
Best thing to have in a boat is a hot foot gas pedal prevents all of this from happening
Preferably a lanyard and Killswitch. Hot foot is dangerous because in chop it’s hard to maintain throttle.
@@thebullgatorI’ve heard this for years but I’ve never had a problem with my hot foot in chop. 🤷
No s*** I can drive my truck down the bumpiest pothole Road and maintain speed why the hell is a hot foot any different.
Just another day at the office…
wow timed that perfect ran out of gas
Fouled the prop, stopped the motor.
Not as entertaining as trying to board the boat while is going but a hell of a lot smarter!
Well done.
baller....
Does that hurt the outboard any?
Tough beans if it does. That is part of the cost of not boating properly.
@@chrisallen2005what are you talking about? Their steering cable snapped, and the motor locked full starboard. Thats why they were ejected.

My boat has cable steering. It also does not have a lanyard. It was made in 1999 before safety was a thing. I'm not retrofitting it with one either. If this happens to me OH FUCKING WELL.
Get hydraulic, they’re not immune to failure, but a much better system. The other 2 reasons people get ejected are waves usually boat wakes & small boats, or crashes. My last runaway was at night, other vessel overtook him, and smashed into the boat ejecting him.
@@CaptainRetrieverI'm not spending $2,000 on hydraulic steering. I have better things to buy.
Myself and the one posting this video know damn well you are either a complete idiot or a troll...nobody in their right mind would purposely not install a kill switch in their boat and have the attitude that you have for not doing it in the first place:)@@UltraMagaFan
