What could the Captain have done differently here? Where is everyone watching from today? 🌎
Not buy a boat 🤷♀️
not be a loser drunk!
Perhaps he could have dropped anchor before he was in jeopardy of beaching the boat.
Stayed home and got drunk there. 🥃🍹🍺😂
Stay Home is best advice for grounded Capi & may not be over yet, trailer bearings prob never gets attn , stranded on Sunday afternoon side of road & places with parts are far & few . Best advice to self , stay the Hell Home , don't go out with them kinda ppl .lol
"After 45 minutes, the boat starts drifting toward the beach." If only he had more time to drop an anchor.
We had a fishing trawler that wound up I believe being a total loss cuz they couldn't get it unstuck from a similar situation. He was asleep and probably overworked, didnt think and had it on autopilot. I didn't get any more details but at least he was asleep...😅 personally, I'd rather have to loose an anchor than have to file an insurance claim.
Look at the line port side aft. That looks an anchor line to me. Whats the draught on the shore line say at 25/30 yards? If the line is to steep downwards the anchor wont hold. Its lifted by the rising boat.
I think that bonk to the head discombobulated him a bit 🤣
@@henkoosterhof5947draft of a boat doesn’t change. Also, you speak out of both sides of your mouth. One, you’re crediting him with having an anchor out. However, you also say it’s not holding. Pick a story and stick to it.
@@JFunk717 i think i did. I see a line i think is an anchor line. So he was not stupid not to do so. But then you need weight to hold. Thats an anchor and chain. The chain must stay on the bottom. If not the boat going up and down on the waves lift the ancher up and it wont hold. So you would need 100? Yards of line. Where i live boats from 27/30 feet and bigger have a full chain anchor line. And a winch on the bow where the chain fits in. When anchoring youre best of putting 3/5 times the dept chain length out.
Hey that's my same boat wellcraft sportsman. 1983 248. Great boat. Anchors work when used properly.
A great looking boat.
I would guess the tow off the beach alone will be $1000, then several hundred to tow it back to where ever they launched it. He should have dropped his anchor when he realized it wouldn't restart, and called the tow company then. Now instead of a few hundred he's going to pay substantially more. Very fortunate he ended up on a smooth sandy beach and not the rocks next to the inlet.
Google says the hourly rate is $300 per hour
That’s what you buy towing insurance
$2000
$2000
The engine just stalled out 3/4 through the cut… the Village pump had something to do with the engine not cranking back up again, and then the battery died..🤷🏻♂️
Here in NY I'm a member of Sea Tow. $250.00per year. No out of pocket. Best money I ever spent.
$200 in Florida
$190 NJ
Keeping the fuel system clean is paramount
He sloshed that tank and it was toast.
Despite the drama, this old welcraft is probably the nicest and most practical boat you have shown. With all the money and technology, why are there so many ugly yachts?
Absolutely correct, sir! I have a 1989 Magna, 22', up here on Lake Michigan. She is dependable, and still looks like a boat. My saying is, Old boats, old cars and older women!
.
In a emergency like this Captain...drop your anchor!!!
this is why I have a boat towing service membership, cuz you just never know
😂
The Tow Boat US franchises can very. Most have a reputation for being fair., but one FL Keys franchise always managed to hit you with a significant charge for something. Whether you're a member or not.
1. He should have stayed at home and read ' Basic Seamanship
2. Gone out and bought an anchor as instructed by 'Basic seamanship'
3. Bolted on an auxiliary out board bracket, and bought a cheap outboard
4 all that could probably have been done for less than his recovery fee
Or ... ... his mom could have swallowed!
Anchor was dropped… (2of them) didn’t make no difference, just glad we didn’t get slammed against the rocks in the Jetti 😩 i’m the guy in the camouflage pants
If you drop an anchor and it immediately drags, yank it and drop it again. Just letting it drag isn't going to help, and redeploying it at least gives you a prayer that it'll dig.
Glad everyone made it home safe.
I was working as a beach attendant that day. I did see the anchor dropped when I first noticed
And here's your walk of shame. Were you the guy that fell over backwards? 😅
@@jttech44 bro are you being serious rite now ... do u see the water and waves his 10 lb anchor or 5 10 lb anchor is not goonna do anything..
@@BUFFDgaming The weight of the anchor isn't super relevant. Small anchors are designed to dig and dig harder as they're pulled. Ship anchors are only heavy to pull out the chain, and the chain does most of the anchoring.
Here, they needed their anchor to dig, and it didn't. No biggie, it happens, but it usually won't correct itself and needs to be reset manually or it'll just keep dragging.
Why would police prevent citizens from helping? 5:22 Do they get a kickback from the tow companies?
You think a tow truck expensive? Call tow boat and cry
Because its dangerous, that think could easily roll on your foot. Let the pros handle it
Dirty fuel tank in an older boat, in rough seas will plug up the fuel filter.
Dirty fuel filter before getting in rough water will plug up faster than a clean filter.
Clean and flush older fuel tanks. It isn't cheap, but it is cheaper than the tow bill.
So many drone camera shots with random acts of crazy going on.....glad to have the information on how NOT to pilot a boat but, wow. My Dad spent time in the Navy on a Fleet Tug (115' long, USS Atapaka) and told me many tales of how dangerous it is to handle other boats/ ships. Gained a lot of respect for the water.
You know you're pretty good at Monday morning quarterbacking about who could have done what differently. The man should have had towboat us
Watching these video's always reminds me I should of been a Tow operator on the Ocean! They make bank! 🤣
Thats a job I would love. Good money too. Steady work ha.
Drop the hook before you're on the beach. If you're on the beach, you can not push a boat out by the stern. The bow is much lighter, and you will have much more of the weight of the boat in the water it will also keep the water going over the stern onto the boat. Also, when you're on the beach, it's not a tow it's a salvage. And it may not be insured. The boat stalled most likely from clogged fuel filters by stirring up the tank in the rough inlet waters . Drop the hook, carry extra filters, and you will not be on
Wavy boats with a 1000.00 dollar towing bill, and I won't have to spend 15 minutes typing this.👍⛵️🌊
@@sailingsegundo4644 Lol! 🤣 15 minutes typing, brilliant! 👏 But wise words!
TowBoat US and Sea Tow pay $10.00 per hour, low time "Captains" getting sea time...
@@Chris-fo8wp Sounds about right. Those operators look like random stoner kids. Could just as easily have been working for Pizza Hut if they got their applications in on time.
A ship set sail to a tiny inland with Gilligan and the skipper too. A millionaire and his wife!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
number one thing with boats, servicing. great channel tks from NZ
That's why I always have an aux engine installed. You never know when your main one stalls. The aux engine bracket and the aux engine itself would cost less than this operation. Luckily no one was harmed here 👍
Should he have dropped the anchor when he was out in the open water after the engine stalled? Genuinely want to know what would have beeen the best course of actions for his situation?
Drop anchor and call Sea Tow or the Coast Guard on channel 16. PS and yearly service of the engine and outdrive is not a bad idea...
I agree with @jamesw.6931 except I'd also never let someone in the cuddy under those sea conditions to be banged around, possibly hitting wiring, snatching it by accident to steady themselves.
Bud needs to puke there's an entire ocean to do it in.
First thing you do when engine fails is drop anchor if possible
They were all drunk
My thought on dropping anchor it could have capsized no?
Perfect rescue
Hey, at least they didn't end up on an uncharted desert isle...with Gilligan!
impressed it could pull that boat out with such ease
I like how everybody stands and watches. Like offer no help what so ever!
Yep, that BoatUS membership pays for itself.
If you were watching in live time, why didnt the drone operator ring before it got to this point.
Exactly, even when the captain banged his head they did nothing. That could have been a serious head injury.
I agree. Drone pilot had plenty of time to call for help and avoid the beaching. But that wouldn't make a dramatic thumbnail for yt.
Yep, overall this channel is entertaining, but they're pretty much jerks for not helping like in this case.
@@nicolassales8679 weren’t there 2 other people on the boat? Did they call? Who called?
The drone operator isn’t in charge of their safety, the Captain is! Why didn’t he call for help or instruct a crew member too? If you sail a boat there is a reasonable expectation that you should be in charge of YOUR and YOUR crews safety.
Very good camera work guys. Thanks for the entertainment.
😢Looks like their weekend is ruined. Not just a few $$ for gas, now tow $$ and repair $$. A once of prevention/maintenance is worth a pound of cure
Could that rough inlet have caused something in the fuel tank to break lose and block the fuel line ?
engine stalled right after a sharp turn, fuel water separator was probably due for a service!
Take care of your boat before you hit the water...
Boat most likely hasn’t had a dollar of maintenance in 10 years
carry starting fluid,make shure you have dual batteries.
Was thinking about that too, rough waves start stirring things, quick decision to turn and it stalls. But I actually had a factory all correct fuel line disembowel itself lately, probably due to additives that have become more common, sometimes you just never know, felt for that guy opening the engine hatch trying to see what’s what… yup that’s the engine, totally dead, check…
Waw nice sharing 😊
Captain concussion: we’ve beached hit the deck.
(First mate backflips and is never seen again)
Losing your engine in those waves close to the beach definitely seems like a mayday mayday mayday moment. This could have been deadly.
Thoughts:
Boats are expensive.
Get friendly with boat owners
Plot twist: Boat started up the first try and is running strong since the recovery. Boat life
I suspect there was water in the gas tank and as the boat was bouncing around the fuel intake line sucked in too much water for the fuel separator to handle.
Anchor a half hour before beaching..
I dont think the skipper here knows how to do that, maybe he isnt even aware of an anchor at all
Allowing the beach spectators to stand behind that tow line wasn't ideal.
These sorts of lines aren't dangerous when they snap. Steel cable you have to worry about, sometimes, and kinetic lines too, standard rope lines don't store enough energy to really be a hazard.
Good news is he grounded on sand, and help was close by. The wind was right to blow him ashore, but we're the hell was the crew? Great job to the tow boat crew.
I watched another clip of this same incident. He did try to anchor but he tried from the stern and not enough line let out. I don't think anchor ever caught. He should have deployed sooner and from the bow.
Watching from New Zealand. I noticed that no one was wearing lifejackets and the captain was very inexpericenced.
Nothing like a boat trip where you need to walk home.
The captain should have dropped anchor long before that boat was beached.
A long, long time ago, we used to call the ending of that evolution "Pushing the lead boat with a stiff rope"
Oh no! 😮
Think the passenger had a few to manny Shandys well maybe the Captain did to. All so I'm sure boats are fitted with Anchors 😂😂
No radio. No anchor. No spare motor. NO BRAINS!. And that boat could be pulled off the beach with 9.8 hp tin boat. If you know how... Not hard either. How do I know this... Good video. Watch and learn what not to do!
Why didn't he radio for help after being unable to restart the engine? It said in the clip 45 minutes later he started drifting towards the beach. That was enough time for someone to come and help.
They didn't even have their antenna raised to use the radio.
I love learning what not to do
He is no longer referred to as “Captain “by his wife
I need this job
We’re watching from Long Island New York
yay!
The captain was not disoriented when he hit his head. He was disoriented when he bought this boat.
Dude clocked himself hard on the side of the head on that sharp edge.
The thing that took the biggest beating was his checkbook.
The fast response rescue service is actually a free service to those who can afford it. But very expensive to those who can't 🤣
I'm glad I no longer own a money pit on water 😂
I'm willing to bet if they'd pulled the water separator and dumped it that motor would have started right up again. A boat that age likely has a decent amount of garbage in the fuel tank that got all stirred up going through the inlet.
In this country all you need is a checkbook to buy a boat. Not even basic seamanship do you need. Like what is an anchor and when should I deploy it.😅
Jethro was out cold after falling back into the boat, Cletus was on his phone not offering any assistance to the "Captain". The 10% trying to keep up with the 1%.
Definitely drop anchor until the issue gets sorted.
3:52
Captain knows about beach erosion.
Water will swirl and make the sand worse around the boat.
Man, if I ever bought a boat for ocean activity it would be minimum twin engines or nothing.
Drop the damn anchor!
Maybe he didn’t have one. South Florida boaters are not always prepared.
I bet you the Captain of the disabled boat will probably run out to his Marine Supply and pick-up a small out- board bracket and a 10hp. outboard for the next break-down!
I don't see how their is anything this guy could have done differently. Except for dropping his anchor immediately. It sure would have cost him much less money getting towed from the water. As opposed to the beach. But once an engine fails their isn't much you can do about it.
He may not have an anchor on board. I'm not kidding!
I see a Danforth type anchor on the foredeck and according to a comment above it was dropped but the waves were too strong so the anchor dragged.
Need to drop an anchor from the bow not the stern.
Drop that anchor before starting to drift towards beach.
If a boat is beached and there's rough tides never attempt to push it back into the water, that's how you loose a toe.
Good slapstick comedy
gotta start somewhere.
With that rough sea, anchoring would be less effective unless he had as lot of rode and a big anchor. It could have slowed his movement towards the beach so he could call SeaTow.
I can’t believe so many boats go out onto the water and the captain, or their guests, do not wear a buoyancy aid or life jacket especially as this water is notoriously difficult.
How to lose your life, or cause injury, or both, for not taking precautions and reducing risk as a result of capsize or man overboard.
He could have held a sign up to the drone operator to say “please call for help, my engine quit”
miami waters looked good on this day
At first signs of engine trouble you should drop the anchor. He never would have beach his boat.
Seems like a long time from the videographer calling for help to them arriving.
From Minnesota
Bad idea beaching a stern drive. The stern of the boat should always be in at least a couple of ft of water, enough so that the lower unit of the engine stays somewhat submerged. If it had an outboard engine, it may have been fine.
That was a hell of a hit to the old brain.
I’d prefer a powered capstan rather than that daft hand winch on the tow boat.
From personal experience, The base rate is according to the boat size. It's a minimum of $200/ft. I'm guessing that recovery cost about $5,600.
The captain made a very poor decision to "hit a few waves" because it likely kicked up the accumulating sediment from the bottom of his fuel tank causing the fuel filter to become clogged. When the fuel filter and fuel line became clogged the engine stalled and could not be restarted.
More likely engine or lower unit failure. And the fact that the boat is a POS !
Or the timing chain could have jumped the sprocket. Looking at the age of his boat and the condition of the engine box cover our captain did not maintain his boat well. While we are guessing the engine could have had a cracked piston. It is obvious the engine had a catastrophic failure. The question is what could the captain done different.
BTW: it wasn’t a lower unit failure. I think my original guesstimate is correct.
@@maxdugan7449 LOL!!!!!!!!!!! Lower units are the number one failure point on all older boats......water enter the drive system and corrodes the gearsets !!!!!!!!!!!
I agree it’s possible for a lower unit failure. We really don’t know for sure until the lower unit and engine is examined. It could be as small as the float and needle in the carburetor. Looking at the age and the abuse he puts his boat through he is.
lucky his hull hasn’t cracked wide open after “hitting some waves”. It is obvious to all this captain dies not maintain his boat.
I don't think I would go open water with a single engine. My Yamaha jet boat was thirsty but I always had the peace of mind that I had two engines.
If he belongs to either Seatow or TowBoat US, it depends on his annual conract, some contracts it is free, it all depends on many variables that the Boat's Captain agrees to.
1) this dumb-s”it prob doesn’t have an anchor
2) a human doesn’t have the strength to push a boat against the surf
My thoughts are. It's a beautiful day at Sea over at haulover inlet!!!😅😊😅😊
that cop had a built-in floatation device
San Diego
I've been a boater for 63 years.
Looks like he was too proud to radio in an emergency.
After you drop anchor.
That's the first thing when you when you lose power in a situation like this. You got to hit the radio. And I don't mean with a hammer. I mean you have to get on the radio and call in an emergency.
Maybe had no boat US or seatow.
I didn't see anybody on the radio until they ran aground.
In my experience, things can always get worse.
And they usually do.
He's lucky he didn't end up on the rocks.
Poor conditions.
Ends up on a nice soft beach.
And, in the old days, you would have had 20 people around him offering help instead of just watching him struggle.
People have really become stupid.
You need at least two good anchors with a couple hundred feet of line on each. Don't leave the dock without them. Get a fire extinguisher, flare gun, marine radio and epirb.
Everything was running until he hit some larger wave outside the inlet. Wonder if something was damaged inside that engine compartment ? ? ?
Why not drop anchor right away?
He got lucky with it being beached on the sand and not the rocks or being sunk.
What causes those crazy waves at Haulover inlet
The people standing behind the beached boat in direct line with the tow line could've been grievously injured if that line snapped. Darwin is chuckling in his grave!
What took so long for the Tow Boats to arrive ? Could have easily been towed befor the grounding
4:46 the good news is your $5,000 boat is now worth $10,000!😎
Out going tide not going to be easy
I guess this would be better than drifting out to sea with no engine and possibly a radio dying
It's no surprise that so many people can afford a nice boat but so few have a clue what they are doing. He appears to have had no idea about what to do in this instance.
