That was just epic... 👍
Your content is educational for us boaters, as well as fun 👍
That’s my Goal entertaining while also teaching 🤝🏼
Great video Ariel. Welcome to my world with the 19 foot rollers when we are out sword fishing every week.
That’s why you get the big ones
Man Those drone shots are truly amazing. You guys are looking great with the channel 👕. Keep up the great work. 👍
Thanks Julio hope all is well
Oh man, those waves look like they were fun to ride, and that water from the Hilton to Honeymoon Harbor was absolutely amazing {so beautiful}. Big shout out to Orlando and your brother it was good to see them again.Oh and that shirt is positively sick, love the white. Another great video!
See you soon
nice boats w/ 600 hp Yamahas..way to travel and gr8 drone footage..fun trip and thanks..Ive never been there thats for sure...
Thank you lightfoot413
Beautiful. Reminds me of going out on my brother's boat out of San Diego- flat but with large rollers.
Nice never been to the Pacific Ocean
This Capitan knows exactly what he's doing - well done sir. Rarely do you see someone articulate the waves like he did and actually explain it! Perfecto! 👍👍 ...and why am I just now finding this channel? New Subscriber!
Welcome to the family Teammarko
@@MiamiLiving305 thank you!
Very much doubt he's a REAL captain.
@@rski1036 if you own a boat...like we own a boat... And it's your boat... You're the Captain of the boat.
You dudes are ahead of the game man. Them are some sweet center console boats to go playing around in. I spent 9 years as boat crew in the Auxiliary out on lake Michigan. Some day I would love to skipper a boat down there. Gotta dream gotta dream.!
Make it happen Joe you can do it
Love those big rollers when they are slammed out like that! Take that over chop any day!
All day tommy
The camera definitley does it justice. These look big!
I’m glad it showed
I got caught in a northerner when coming back to Coral Gables from Bimini. I didn’t have radar, was heading to Fowrey Rocks but ended up in front of Solders Key. Luckily, both my sounders went off and I used a boat hook to find the bottom (rocky), reversed my course, went 250 feet and anchored. Wind and rain was so hard, I was wearing a dive mask and I was mostly under my four post tower. I my BLACKFIN was a straight inboard.
Wow that sounds like a hell of a ride
You got off lucky that time. Not always the case and many wind up lost or on the bottom.
Another excellent and educational video. Thank you for sharing 🎉
Thanks Alejandro Glad you enjoyed it.
That was awesome I’ll watch for the next one
Thanks Andrew
So beautiful!! 🌊🐠
Thank you Paula
good footage on those sea hunts..they take to the water real well....
Yes They shine offshore
Looks like Fun
It was very fun
That's good at that speed. Thx..
No Problem Howard
what a amazing video bro, not many ppl get to see those types of sea's, only the serious ones lol. Wow would of liked to have done it as well, some other time lol overall amazing footage my friend.
Its def was a experience and now another skillset added to the belt. We have been across many times but never had I seen it like this.
Waves are always bigger than they appear on camera. The camera always flattens them out. With waves, there’s a formula that says if they’re averaging 2 feet, every 10th will be 2.5-3 and every 100th will 3.5. So if the waves are 4 feet, the 10th will be 5-6 and the 100th will be 7. It’s true. There are online calculators to figure it out.
I agree Mark
Wow mark you are smart, I would have never knew that
Thatscright
Thanks nice trip
Thanks for coming along
Very beautiful I can't wait to make that trip
It’s amazing and a must do
Yeah just got done watching the other video memorial day weekend, told ya be back back
Loving it.
Great video - and yes the video does not do justice to the swells. however, they are not 10, 5 ft max and long intervals so no issues for your boat! Keep the videos coming
Thanks Roger
The guy has no clue. First of all no way were there any 10 ft swells and regarding seeing Bimini from offshore. In that little boat at sea level the first thing you see are the pine trees on North Bimini but not until your 8 miles off.
Uffff those SEA HUNT LOOKS powerful cutting those rolos 💪. Se que se veian mas grande en persona me encantó El video my friend . Att Yadys
The SeaHunts always do their thing
That's what's up 👍🏼👍🏼u make it look easy 💪🏼
It’s really not that hard just have to stay calm and be able to Adjust to the situation
Awesome video Bro, First time checking y’all out , Great handling of the boat nice sites, Saludos de Texas.
Saludos thanks for watching welcome to the Miami Living 305 family
Waitinggggg😂daleee
Lets Goooo
So beautiful!!😊😊😊😊
Thanks Edward
Awesome video . Really nice experience. 🔥🔥🔥
Yea bro big notch on our belts with this trip
Love the vids man.
Thanks jpat glad you enjoy the videos
Just stumbled upon this video. That is a trip I’ve always wanted to make. But I’m in swfl in Cape Coral. Just picked up a 2020 SeaCat 260 with twin 300 zukes on it. If you’re ever down to meet up with randoms and buddy boat out to Bimini let me know. I want to put in here in Cape Coral, drive to the keys. Chill for a day or two then run to the Bahamas for a couple days and return all they way back to Cape Coral. Sounds like a dream trip.
Follow me on Instagram and Facebook there I post events, meetups, crossing dates
@@MiamiLiving305wow that’s a fast response. I would but I’m one of the few who don’t social media. Lol.
@@TuscanyFTX I Got You i did post a date here where I’m going to west end June 6-9 leaving from Fort Lauderdale
Joel
Panama for the winter.
Get ready you have to hit a honey hole 😊
Thanks for watching.
tx 4 the content wish i lived closer to ride w yall [ tampa just too far to trailer there]
Thanks Jason I’m glad you enjoyed the video
Chalk Seaplane 1989 take you to Bimini in the morning and return in late afternoon to take you back to Miami $90 bucks. Spend the day drink at the Hemingway Hotel and Bar 🍸 good time's
Nice only 90 bucks
Been there many times in the eighties.
Has changed a lot since then
With all of the development & that idiotic ferry, its gone down hill so I crossed it off my list of islands to go to. Fishing has also gone down the tubes and that's what used to bring many of us there.
Great Video Brother! Nice navigation through those rollers! Peace from the Keys!
Thanks bro
Dude just seeing it now. Oh my roughness. Loll. Waters were at bit out of hand. Still what an amazing time spent.Good to see you were well companied and ya were ok. Big hugs to y'all. ❤
Yea it was a fun ride
You've obviously not spent very much time, if any, offshore if you think those waters were, "out of hand."
One thing I do in weather like that, If you want to slow but not come off throttle, pull one back and it creates enough drag without loosing too much speed.
Thanks for the tips devin
Wow brother this is so cool I would love to do this one day I live in corpus Christi but there ain't no where to go like that from here
Got to get down here Herbert
If you got the money? I got the time...gr8 video cheers
Thanks for Watching Lightfoot
Got back in time for dinner with the family!
That was the plan
Next year’s adventure!
It’s well worth it
@@MiamiLiving305 We need to get our passports!
@@paulahardin6002 yes that’s a must to make the trip
I’m ready to come make that run with you.
July 25-28
crayfords? you mean carysfort? i'm not familiar with all the lighthouses around so just asking.
yes Carysfort right off of key largo
The biggest wave was like 3 feet. Haha
I don’t think 3 ft is enough to cover my buddy’s boat when looking back at the horizon
Can y'all do the round trip without refueling?
Yes Boat has 220 gallons tank.
Whats deepest draft your boat can have to enjoy all those little islands?
About 3-4ft
2:00 "beautiful and flat" there is not curve. thats why "horizon" comes from the word "horizontal" water doesnt curve. water stays level. earth is flat.
Lol
Wow, do you guys ever go out in groups?
All the time
are you sure on those 60 gallons? i have 2 stroke 250's and i burn about 48 gallons. thought 4 strokes would be much better
Not at the speed we were going
That's a "wives tale. The 4 strokes are only a little better on fuel.
Oh I thought you had to immediately check in with Bimini customs. Do they give you a grace period? I've never made the trip.
Yea you are suppose to but we were all starving from the early trip and decided to eat something before then going in and fully checking in
Yes, captain must check in before any crew/passengers disembark the vessel.
@@mikepulido1721 yes correct Mike
46 mph and 1.2 mpg.
How many RPMs at that speed?
Not 100% but I was say in the 4800 range
great video
Would love to have seen what you had for lunch, please always add shots of the food.
I got you next time Doug, I usually do not bring out the camera at the table to give everyone their privacy but I will include it next time
excellent job captain as usual, how much do they charge to leave the boat at the marina
100
What’s the size of your boat ? Thanks
30ft seahunt
What causes the "big rollers" on an otherwise calm day?
The days before this day it was very windy and stormy so it takes the ocean about 24 hours for the big waves to start coming down
What boats are these?
Sea hunt gamefish 30
In your opinion, what would be the smallest size boat to make this trip and engine size?
21ft 200hp
Thanks for the fast response, and love you videos, the more i watch the more i wanna take that ride...
@@toybox8262 thanks toybox
@@MiamiLiving305 You've obviously never been out there when the wind kicked up and although it takes many hours to calm down when winds drop, when they kick up so does the ocean very quickly and trust me, you would NOT want to be out there in a little 21 ft. boat.
👀👀👀
🤟🏽🤟🏽
Smart move by not allowing anyone to ride in the front of your boat when seas are rough.
Yea not a safe place to travel
So you went there for one day? How much was it for entry into Bimini ?
Its 150 buck and you are good for 90 days. On this trip I paid nothing since I had been there less then 90 days before
@@MiamiLiving305that’s per boat? So you can bring new people the next time?
Do people really have to drive their boat as fast as possible?
No But I like making 3 hour trips into 2 hours instead, Especially when I'm not riding with the whole family and I can push it a little bit more
Do you need active passport and check in Bahamas immigration to go honeymoon Harbour ?
Yes because you are entering another country’s land
@@MiamiLiving305 thank you!
I know you need your Passport in certain areas, so is this area a requirement?
Yes you are entering a different country
@@MiamiLiving305 Right on. Wasn’t sure where the border lines are drawn in certain areas. Thank you for the reply.
