- First off, thank you to everyone that watched last week’s video of our first solo crossing to Bimini on the Axopar 37 Cross Cabin. It’s been our best-performing video yet and we really appreciate your support.
Watch the full video of our first crossing to the Bahamas: • Can An Axopar 37 Get Y...
Several of you commented on that video that you wanted to see more details of what getting boarded by Customs and Border Patrol as well as the US Coast Guard is like so we made this video for you.
If you have any content ideas that you would like to see, please share them below.

All good. They are there doing their job for a good reason. And the USCG will be the guys pulling you out of a bad situation offshore should it ever happen. Enjoyed your video.
Yeah we had nothing to hide or be worried about. It was just another first 😅
@@yachtbros Yep! That is a good thing when you are arriving in to US waters 😄
Sorry, this was 10months ago..your post
I'm just now seeing it..I will describe see if I can get up-to-date post thank you
🙏❤️
Border Patrol and CBP are law enforcement agencies, and you may record them in the performance of their public duties in public places, so long as you do not interfere with the officers in any way. airport?
TSA does not prohibit photographing, videotaping or filming at security checkpoints, as long as the screening process is not interfered with or sensitive information is not revealed.
That's what we thought. But considering Adrian isn't a US citizen yet, and that we wanted to get home asap, we didn't want to risk it and play lawyer.
4:00 Air & Marine Operations (AMO) wears navy blue uniforms as shown. The U.S Border Patrol (USBP) were not present. They mostly wear green unis but sometimes wear tan when engaged in marine ops. Both are divisions of U.S. Customs & Border Protection. Good video.
@@AL5J_ thank you! Good insight!
I'm retired DEA and even though I retired thirteen years ago, even back then, we were told, there is really no legal basis to stop someone from filming you. Not that we didn't do sometimes, anyway, to be honest.
@@ralphholiman7401 the problem today is, people that video law enforcement are baiting them to make a point so their video goes viral. Thanks for your service
They can ask you to not record, but fuck that. You have every right to record them doing their job.
That’s right
Shut off the go pro?? How bout no?? I don’t care if it’s in a respectful manner they asking, it’s a right to record incidents like this.
And even a federal court said that CBP can be filmed, even if their “rules” say you can’t.
Next time we’ll dispute. Honestly we were tired from the rough crossing and just wanted to get home as soon as possible.
You guys seem pretty naive.
@@jheg96 Yep, the 11th Circuit Court, which covers FL, GA, and AL, ruled that taking photos and video in public of public officials is protected by the first amendment. There are only two Circuit Courts left in the country that haven't ruled on the matter (issue hasn't come up in their circuit yet).
@@desertr4062 It's not naive at all. They had nothing to hide and wanted to get home after a rough 2 hour ride.
When I visit Florida a trip to Nautical ventures is always a highlight. Amazing very unique store. Nice location. Decent prices.
Happy to help!
Can they actually make you shut off the camera. I thought that sort of thing has gone to court many times and overwhelmingly the ruling has always been you absolutely have the right film these interactions.
We would’ve liked to have known there too. Because it’s a port of entry they probably can make you.
1985 we were in Newport RI on a large sailboat anchored within earshot of the Newport Jazz festival rafted up with some others, someone in the crowd knew one of the coasties on duty in the area out of Coast Guard Station Castle Hill they pulled alongside tied up went below and i will not say what went on next but an emergency call came, jumper on the Newport Bridge and they all flew up the companian way untied and were off in a flash,, very cool
Maybe a rescue call?
@@yachtbros Of course it was a rescue call....
I was in the USCG 1986-1990 and was a qualified boarding officer. When I was in, we would do joint operations with US Customs and other law enforcement agencies. These would be scheduled ahead of time and would happen regardless of weather or other conditions. They were definitely trying to make a quota so they can use that data to ask for money from Congress. You did the right thing by answering their questions and being cooperative. When I was in there were not so many ways to video so it wasn’t an issue. Those boarding officers seemed professional and courteous so filming them wasn’t necessary.
Thanks for the insight, Chris. We recorded in case people were curious what a “standard” inspection on the water is like.
I was in the DEA. One of our funniest joint operations with the Coast Guard was doing surveillance on a ship that was carrying cocaine into Baltimore via an attached pod under the water. We had tracked the vessel all the way from Columbia and were doing surveillance, waiting for the cartel to try and remove it. We had an undercover 43 foot Wellcraft Portofino, and we set up pretending to fish while we did surveillance. One of the crew was always a USCG member. One day, while the USCG guy is down below making a sandwich, I see a Coast Guard patrol boat heading our direction. I figure they are just going to pass by, but the next hating I know they have their blue lights on, and I hear over the speaker, "Go to the front of the boat." And, I can't figure out what they are talking about, so I yell back, "Why do you want us to go to the front of the boat." Next, I hear, "We will not ask you again. Go the the bow of the boat." Next thing I know, the USCG comes out of the hatch with his sandwich and asks "What's going on?" I said a Coast Guard boat is here and they keep telling us to go to the front of the boat. So our Coast Guard guy walks out onto the cockpit with his sandwich, walks over to the side, looks at the boat, and then yells, "Hey, John, why you want us to go the front of the boat""
great video! would love to see more axopar 45 content 🙏
Thanks! We just got back from the Düsseldorf boat show. We’re working on a video featuring the the new 45 aft cabin
Those guys are doing their job just like anyone else, they also have a saying that we should all live by, def on the water..
Does anyone know their saying?..
Will give our lives to save others??
is it your boat or their boat?!
Dealer boat.
They are on the job. Axopar cool boat.
👍🏼
Wow nerve racking thanks for sharing....
Hey guys, 1st time getting a chance to see ur video,
But really guys, they wanted to check that bitch out too...
It's looks like the same exact boat I designed on my paper, too see it on youtube was such a..."eye opener to me"..
Anywaz the boat has the same design as the older military boats, of course they want to come on boat to look it over.. obviously they don't want to cause you any harm you don't want to cause them harm so it was just checking over have a good one guys enjoy your trip
Did you do a walkthrough of the Axopar? I wonder why these boats dont have a shower
Actually they can't tell you don't film. Most don't know that.
That’s what I thought! I’ve read conflicting rules.
If you want to go toe to toe with federal officers of two different federal agencies be my guest. This is not local law enforcement that you see on the TV or the internet. Second, you're entering a customs boarding which means they can do and tell you anything they want. They can search anything they want without a warrant. I know USCG can do because I was part of USCG tactical teams. Third CBP, AS STATED IN THE INTRO TO THIS VIDEO STATES THEY CANNOT FILM INSPECTIONS.
These guys did the exact right thing. They cooperated, gave no problems to these officers, and were sent on their way. I guarantee that if they gave them problems the inspection would be way in depth.
@@matthewcreech8259 well said 👌🏼
@@yachtbros thank you.
@@matthewcreech8259 no sorry this is not a communist country. Courts have repeatedly ruled you have the right to record law enforcement.
You are too nice. Comply with USCG. CBP can piss off.
They’re just doing their job. We were entering the country after all.
Land of the free 🤣🤣🤣
“It’s a free country last time I checked.” 😅
I also thought they can't tell you not to film. It would be a great information video to find out the truth about that law and when they board your vessel rights.
Yes. Going to need to research a bit more before that.
On the open water before secondary… you have an argument to public space and having a camera rolling…
Once you tie up to the USCG dock… you are technically in a secure federal facility… it could be argued that you don’t have a right to film there.
Put a piece of black tape over the light next time and they won't know you're recording.
Is it legal to force dogs aboard ?
U can always film law enforcement, 1st amendment
We thought that too, but it was our first time and just wanted to cooperate.
SHOW ME ZE PAPERS!!
Never talk to the police
Well they're not the police, and you don't have much of a choice.
@@yachtbros yes you do. You can stay silent no problem
You have a right on public waters to film the encounter. Even though the USCG is working under Title 14 USC § 89 (Revenue & Service) which allows them to override parts of the Fourth Amendment, telling you to turn off your camera falls under a violation of your First Amendment rights. You can not deny a boarding, verbal resistance is a $500 fine, while physical resistance is a $10k fine and possibly 10 years in prison. However, the Coast Guard is required to uphold the Constitution and blatant violations against US citizens by the Coast Guard will result in charges brought against them under the UCMJ.
Personally I always outrun these guys n pretend I dont see them. I've been chased and they have always broken off when they see me going back over same places...but I have a question, when they boarded, why not keep the camera rolling, for your protection and for theirs. ....let's say they place something on your boat, planting something in order to confiscate your boat? We keep cameras rolling during traffic stops, these people are public officers, or are they KGB?
Ok I posted hastily, I see others had the same comment, I just certainly wouldn't have turned off the camera, they don't trust me, I don't trust them, and they are here to serve me, not the other way around.
I think next time we’ll just pretend it’s not rolling 😅
But people can cross the Southern boarder (land) with ease. What a joke our federal government is.
Yea....those people just walk on in....and NOTHING happens....yet American citizens get harassed over the most minor ticky tacky type krap possible..............
Well, that and five dudes without fishing rods might be drug dealers.
So the lack of rods gave it away, huh? 🤣
@@yachtbros hey, not fishing so what else would you be doing? But I love their cover story that they are pulling everyone in for secondary. The app may have saved you from it.
@@AbNomal621 Commuting lol. Yeah, it was our first crossing. Got the app now. No issues.
bring at least 10 and set them up on the holders lol
@@exotik4123 Then you have to show fishing licenses and they'll search looking for how many fish you caught.
USCG rocks.
They’re all really cool, professional folks.
@@yachtbros As Law Enforcement goes their professionalism is stellar.
You guys handled it well too!
A little politeness goes a long way. Thanks!
@@yachtbros 100%!
Good we need law and order …
Yeah, still beats entering through an airport.
@@yachtbros nice channel. Trial
My formula 400ssc. Also interested in seeing 405 conquest, hinckley 40x and other 40ft outboard beasts… later
Thanks! We’re definitely going to be on beginner boats soon.
I’ve been boating the east coast ( Md. to Florida ) for 52 years so I’ve been boarded 100’s of times and would’ve been 1000’s but I always have my annual Coast Guard inspection sticker on the windshield.
The reason they don’t like being filmed is that many times they’ve boarded drug boats the GoPro was on a live feed to the king pins. The cartels then take their mugshot and threatens their families and worse.
So if you don’t like it, sell your boat, move to Mexico, Bahamas, DR or any other smuggling country.
For those of us that do the 1000’s of miles of ICW annually, we love the Coast Guard and the incredibly noble and highly dangerous job they volunteer for.
What have you done for your country besides whine like a child
Ya, I don't like it, and I think I'll stay in America. Arbitrary stops in the 100's? That's harassment and I'd go further to say unconstitutional.
@Roger Boogers over a span of 50 years, that's a low number
We live in America and have a right to film in public. Know the law before telling someone to move to another country.
Tuff crap....you should move to North Korea.....
🔴🦅🇺🇲🦅 when I was a skipper of an 84 ft patrol cutter from Cape Hatteras to Jacksonville Florida, if you didn't heave to when I gave you orders, you were considered to be at hostile invader, search sink and destroy with deadly leayhal Force for the orders from the Commander in Chief Ronald Reagan United States American president 🙏🙏🙏❤️‼️
😯
Hatteras, been through there a couple times, rough seas. 210 and 225 been there
Seems like they were bored and trying to make a quota of boardings.
Never really understood the concept of quotas for law-enforcement agencies. It seems counter-productive, no?
