The Whaler shows the difference between a captain who knows how to pilot a small boat and one that doesn’t. So many of these guys are scared to get on the power, especially the lake boat captains who continually let the bow go under a wave and flood the forward compartment.
Great drone shots especially of the boat that floored it off to the left of the rock wall into calmer waters, which was a smart move. Great shots of Midnight Express. What a beautiful boat which handles well it seems!!!
Kudos to the Drone Pilots.... I fly a drone so I have a good idea how difficult those shots are... never mind with 2 drones in the air at the same time. The control is amazing. Also Amazing..... I didn't see even one Trump 2024 Boat Wrap....🤣
From Manchester in the UK... the drone shots make all the difference. Your vids are constantly fascinating but I can't believe so many boat owners don't wear life-jackets! It's almost as if they don't expect the inlet to be so confused and violent at times! Fascinating though it is, I think I'll stick to the British canal system where a wake of 4 inches is quite a lot! Ha-Ha! Keep up the good work!
Love drone footage. My dad always had a boat and I always enjoyed going out on it but I never did anything right on it docking or launching. I was always the dummy to him so I never wanted to own one thank goodness. But at least I’m smart enough to know better than to try to go out in rough conditions like that . What’s the fun in getting beat to death and your boat is getting pounded. I always said boat people have more money than sense !
Drone shots are great. Keep them coming. Also maybe not be bad if you show the surroundings of the inlet from time to time for a few seconds, so we can feel the atmosphere there.
Lots of wavy action the wind the ferocity of the steely waves make it even more extraordinary. Just looking my supper went down fast! There people are extremely strong! Congrats for the dronee work. From all white Ottawa Ontario Canada.
That Reef Runner looks like the old top-heavy Pen Yan tunnel drive inboards. They always sway like hell because with a person on the bridge the boat is way too heavy over its axis. They are essentially tubs but the tunnel drive is great for diving because it cuts down on the risk of shredding your diver. There are tanks, so this looks like a charter diving expedition. Captain did about as could be done with this blob of a vessel... :)
Mystery Boat #1 probably a 'Check Mate'. Mystery boat #2 is a 'Mako'. The 'Boston Whaler' (Montawk 17 CC) probably did it best, but that cathedral hull is a slamming ride. I think the Reef Runner did fine but it looked awkward, probaby a Stamas (sp?) They just don't have a lot of freeboard, especially at the bow - it's architecturally drawn to be the same as the stern. Yeah, I like the drone shots. Cool to see the same run from multiple angles.
Love the drone shots. The FAA says they’re perfectly legal, too. If you don’t want to be photographed when you’re in public there is a solution…stay home and close the blinds. Photography is everywhere.
Every naval architect should be studying these videos based on what they want their boat/hull to do. So much information in watching these. Every boat buyer should watch to understand how either the boat they bought or the one they want will act in these conditions. I live on the Merrimack River which can be really harsh, but man almost nothing like this.
When you see that smaller Boston Whaler navigate that with no issues.... a lot rides on the design.... but also on the competency of the helmsman. ( I wouldn't refer to many of those as 'Captains")
I’ve come in the Merrimack before with the tide going out and the wind coming in It’s no picnic Mostly, I was around the Eagle River My sister lived there with my former brother-in-law Who owns Greenpoint boatyard Caught a lot of stripers up there had a hell of a lot of fun
I look at these boats now and remember back when we had a 17’ shallow V with a Johnson 70hp on the back of it in the very early 70s😂 If my dad got it up to 45mph we thought we were hauling ass!
I drive the Reef Romer. That skipper did a pretty good job. You have to understand it's a single engine inboard with 8 adults all their kit and 20-25 air tanks dragging the stern end down.
The drone shots are great but I'd prefer them a bit farther away from the boats. I get that it completely legal n there's no assumption of privacy in public, but following the boats could be seen as annoying. As for my favorite boat, that Viking was pretty sweet.
Stupidity cones in many forms, those who see that churning sea and keep heading out& those like that viking who does not realize you are responsible for that wake.Its amazing to me the lack of common sense , and lack of courtesy people exhibit boating.I’ve even witnessed coast guard vessels tipping past boats never slowing, no whistles for passing ever blown.Nuts!
There's absolutely no reason for most of these boats to be slamming their hulls! The operators are mostly clueless. There is a rhythm you must get into while traversing waves. It requires deft work using both the throttle and steering wheel. Going full-speed ahead is not the answer and risks damaging the boat or worse... dumping passengers. You should always practice your technique while alone or with a mentor. And if you do go wave-hopping... make sure kids and seniors have floatation devices on and are seated in the rear!
Perfect reminder of why Im blessed to have a bunch of finger lakes to enjoy right here in the state of NY. Those ocean waves don't look appealing at all.
Why does no one high side the holes rather than go head on into the holes High siding is steering into the high side and chine ride around the hole rather than nose dive?
The fjord is designed to have less acceleration/deceleration when hitting waves, it’s a flare less plumb bow, it’s inherently more wet than a standard flared bow.

Love the drone shots! Offers a wonderful perspective and gives some scale you don't get from the shore.
Absolutely love the drone shots, takes the action to another level, keep it going!
So underrated. The drone pilot gets no CREDIT.
REALLY, GIVE THEM CREDIT!
The Whaler shows the difference between a captain who knows how to pilot a small boat and one that doesn’t. So many of these guys are scared to get on the power, especially the lake boat captains who continually let the bow go under a wave and flood the forward compartment.
Indeed, you can hear the captain throttling up and down quite regularly, indicating effective use of throttle to manage the bow.
That's why the BTL girls do so well. Not afraid to get on the power and keep the bow high.
Also, it's a Boston Whaler. Unsinkable and inspiring.
I thought one of those lures flying around was going to catch the passenger in the neck.
Can't beat a Boston Whaler!
The Florida pool pump motor repair guy 32750 approved ! that was good info & see Wavy Boats
Love the drone shots. Most boaters don’t seem to mind being “followed” by the drones.
Really like the drone shots! Great filming!
Your drone shots are the best!
Don’t listen to the others. We love the drone shots. You and @broncosguru get us through winter being on Lake Erie
Yesssss….love the drones too!!!! 😊😊😊
Great job Tony and Arty!
The drones are amazing . Pure magic .
DRONE SHOTS ARE KILLER!!

Drone shots are very much appreciated keep them coming there awesome.
What is the object the Pursuit is hitting at 5:10?
Looks like a cooler to me. I bet it fell off one of those jetskis
@@colinbarnes705 Yes, You are right, must be one.
"keep an eye on pink shorts..." Got it!
Liking the drone shots!Shows how challenging this can be.
Drone shots are awesome! Thanks!

Great drone shots thanks.
4:01 - Identified the boat right away (just from watching these vids lately.)
Thanks for the edumacation!
Great shots! Keep up the good work!
My favorite has to be the Midnight Express, it is the epitome of sleek and powerful .
Drone shots are great. Keep them coming. Also maybe not be bad if you show the surroundings of the inlet from time to time for a few seconds, so we can feel the atmosphere there.
Not sure that you read comments, but this is important.
GIVE CREDIT TO THE DRONE PILOT!
Some pretty good captains out there today. I thought that Reef Roamer was gonna gulp it but made a nice recovery. Drone shots are cool too.
what is that object that pops up at 5:08?
I didn't see any struggling , Captain knew exactly how to handle it .
Amazing footage and the drone shots are excellent. Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺
The Fjord looks like a boat made of Legos.
I was thinking "Tinkertoy" but same!
That is one homely dude, and the paint scheme didn't help. It was lumbering in the water.
That's one ugly boat.
Fr
Hey Legos aren't ugly! ;
I❤ the drone shots

Love the drone shots!!
The shots you get with the drone are awesome, great perspective 👍👍👍👍
While the Whaler did a good job, their lures were whipping around looking for the back of an arm or a neck to hold onto.
Drone shots are great, and your camera work is also top-notch! Thanks!
That Reef Runner looks like the old top-heavy Pen Yan tunnel drive inboards. They always sway like hell because with a person on the bridge the boat is way too heavy over its axis.

Drone is cool👍💯🏴☠️
Fabulous Boat 😍
I thought that was a vanquish or pardo yacht. Those r my favorite!!!
Great angles on the videos. Really show what these captains are up against.
What was that in the water at 5:08 the boat coming out of the inlet, ran over? Looked square, but I couldn't tell what it was.
Drone shots are great!
2:45 that lure about to ruin one of those guys' day 😂
love the drone shots
That hideous blue and red Fjord made me want to claw my eyes out!
1:45...WHERE does he think hes going, with those white horses in the open 🌊..?..he will surely go down to see ol Davie Jones locker..😱
Drone shots rock!
Mystery Boat #1 probably a 'Check Mate'. Mystery boat #2 is a 'Mako'. The 'Boston Whaler' (Montawk 17 CC) probably did it best, but that cathedral hull is a slamming ride.

#1 definitely not a Checkmate.
#1 I was thinking Checkmate too, then thought maybe its an old Baja or Wellcraft nova.
Boston whaler doet het goed,de man weet hoe je de golf neemt 🎉
The pursuit at around 4:40 did a really great job!
Love the drone shots. The FAA says they’re perfectly legal, too. If you don’t want to be photographed when you’re in public there is a solution…stay home and close the blinds. Photography is everywhere.
Posting on internet isn’t as black/white as

Drone shots are nice.
Great video, thanks for sharing!
Midnight Express is a legend of a boat. They design it to a T

I'm sure it got said already, but I just saw this video. Trim is a wonderful thing.......wow
North Carolina
Love the drone shots keep up the great work I used to go to Haulover to watch, it's a nasty cut
the waves were amazing and the ships
My favorites are the Midnight Express ❤
Hi Wavy, if you are refering to the Fuord, that is a millon dollars of ugly.

verry nice
mystery boat #1 is a Donzi and # 2 is a Mako.... * thumbs up from Lake George, NY !!
I think that last blue boat was trying to spray down the drone! ;
Would love to see a swordfish trawler go through it haha 🤣🤣🤣
I love the Midnight Express boats
I traditionally stay home when it’s that rough!
Perfect reminder of why Im blessed to have a bunch of finger lakes to enjoy right here in the state of NY. Those ocean waves don't look appealing at all.
Great channel
Why does no one high side the holes rather than go head on into the holes High siding is steering into the high side and chine ride around the hole rather than nose dive?
Yes, drones!
Between 5:04 and 5:16 skipper lost his cap and didn’t notice 😂
Once out in open water, how much does it smooth out compared to the chop in the channel?
Enjoy the drone shots. Here in Ohio,
That Fjord sucks. Capt had the bow trimmed way up and still took a soaking.
It's not what it's built for, it's a Mediterranean boat, it will handle the rough but it's not where it excells.
3:00 tiny boat, tiny brain….w their angles hanging loose🤯😱🤯
Wish I was there! Next best thing!
Amazing how the waves just disappear at a certain point in the inlet
Ole Blue Shorts had Brown Shorts after that!
Where does the NO WAKE zone begin?
That Fjord represents a million dollars ill spent.
I'm not a boat guy so my question is...what is the correct way to get through this and out to sea?
Look at the tides and weather. These conditions are usually during the outgoing tide with an east wind. Wait an hour or two and it calms down
@@davidkaehele8910 I never thought of that,thanks for the reply!
A stuffing is minimum 200gallons of water onbord, less is just a light mist.
Mystery boat #1 is a 1990 donzi black widow with an outboard conversion.
All of these hammers with the motors trimmed all the way down 🤣
Mystery boat #1 Maybe a 19-24 ft Scarab maybe. It kinda looked like one I seen at Lake Of The Ozarks 3-4 years ago
Some of these guys have massive blindspots in front of their boat without sliwing down.
To each his own, but I’ve never liked filling my boat with salt water.
The fjord is designed to have less acceleration/deceleration when hitting waves, it’s a flare less plumb bow, it’s inherently more wet than a standard flared bow.
I think the mystery boat is a ‘everybody look at me I love myself 3000’. Probably a 1993 model
Looks like the builders forgot to put the wheels on that Fjord before it left the factory
Had that first, blue and white boat been an open bow "water scoop" he'd a been in a lot of trouble.
