I’ve a feeling Mr. M-E is the same guy who drives his Maserati Quattroporte 55 mph in the left (fast) lane and gets pissed at all the drivers flipping him off as they buzz around him
He might be taking a woman for a spin. A woman not his wife...which would explanation his irritation at being video taped. Like people who call in sick to go to a ball game and get themselves on the big screen with a woman not their spouse.
Well I say he is the only sane skipper out of all of these dickhead speed heads who bash their boats to pieces just to show off and had a vent a brain in their heads. He looks after his beautiful boat and gets through the rough with ease. Why the hell do the other dorks go so bloody fast?????
Mid-Express needed people sitting in the bow of the boat holding a baby without life jackets
3 min 39 sec Midnight Express operator. Unsure of his experience, expensive boat does not mean possessing experience. We all cut our theeth on the water and made embarrassing mistakes. Happens even to experienced skippers, we all read the sea conditions wrong at times and mishandled the throttles as a result. Best wishes Midnight Express skipper, safe boating always ❤.
That yacht handles like a shopping trolley 🛒
🤣🤣🤣😭
Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Very few captains seem to be able to do the right thing with their boats. What suprises me the most is that in such tricky conditions, children aren't wearing life jackets.😐
I had an opportunity to visit your beautiful Country and City. KLM from Kuwait as my airline. Wonderful.
That’s ignorance on the captain or skipper!
Not only that but most of them are not wearing life jackets.
What you can't see is that they've tied the legs of the children to the anchor. This way they won't fell over board.
Does this happen in Amsterdam too?
I would change the injectors on the 72 ft Hatteras. Look at the exhaust and the soot that clings to the hull.
I bet some long needed injector cleaner would probably do it for him.
The angry noob should name his boat “sea tool”
Black M-E, needs to trim his motors (all 5 of them) to get his bow up, then he can gently increase speed. With a little practice, he might look like a real captain.
What was costly?
The gasoline
We rented a Tahoe T16 in Jupiter, saw the inlet and quickly did a u-turn lol
I guess one thing I never thought about "party barges"...they are, by far, the winners of any stuffing competitions. Can't really sink them that way, at least. LOL.
The drones shots really let us see what a beautiful cllor the water was today.
Pontoon boat at haulover should never happen. It’s a lake boat.
It blows my mind that anybody would take a pontoon boat through an inlet like that into the open ocean.
Or a 26 ft bowrider 1 outboard motor with eight people.
I think the noob should learn to operate a rental before jumping into the million dollar Midnight!
Kudos to your graphics department! ⬅️ROCKS! 😂
OK. I got the skinny on the Hatteras. It was originally a 65 and it was extended to an 82 ft'er in 2000. It was named Catchin' Moments.
She does have stabilizers so she shouldn't roll that bad if they were working.
She has 2 generators to run power so the hydraulics for the stabilizers should have worked.
She has twin 12V71 w/turbo's, 870 HP and both were overhauled in 2005.
She was for sale for only $599,000 but was taken off the market.
It is now named Catchin' Feelings.
Seems like a lot of boat for the money if you can handle the maintenance.
@@PsRohrbaugh, and the fuel bill. For boats that size, can find far more economical setups.
I'm guessing he broke something, that thing was all over the place or the dude driving was very very very new and not used to the delay the rudder has.
$10 for cash?
Broken or jammed rudder and he couldn't control it with just the engines?
The engines badly need a tuneup.
To quote Jeremy Clarkson : “Powaaah!!”
"SPEEEEED and POWER!!
And I thought I was the only one thinking that! 😂
....Oh, there's black smoke coming out of the rear, and it's lost steering =
Clarkson hits it with a hammer 😂
For the pontoon boat, first of all he had passengers up front while going through Haulover. Secondly, and most importantly, he took a pontoon boat through Haulover Inlet with passengers aboard 😒😒
Hey Jim, would you go on that pontoon charter through Haulover?
@@WavyBoats as mentioned many times in the comment section of this channel, you need to keep lake boats on lakes 😉
@@jim2laneEvery time I bring the same point up, people insult me. I live on a nice inland lake perfectly suited for pontoon boats. I definitely know. Lol
Owning a pontoon, wasn't much he could have done in those conditions. People on the front had no bearing on handling at that speed, sure he could have trimmed the motor a little bit, but with that size swell, it would've plowed into it either way. Lowe SS 230WT w/ Merc 250...Lake Anna, Va
@@justgoofingoff but what you described is exactly why pontoon boats have absolutely no business being anywhere near a place like Haulover Inlet. Especially on a day like that. You've got the right idea for a boat like that sir - using it in a place like Lake Anna. I'm sure it's quite beautiful there. 😊
3:46 That has got to be the first time I've seen a Midnight Express not be able to handle Haulover. Duuhoohuude!
I‘m not a boat owner, but from what I see that Seavee Captain knows what he’s doing. Right?
guys, the image quality is just out of this world. mesmerizing. thanks!!
Mystery yacht is a Hatteras 70 Motor Yacht series ii, with a modified sloop stern.
The first boat made a very good attempt at trying to snap the bow off his boat. LoL . 😂✌
The captain didn't want you to film because he was afraid if he lost the boat there would be evidence on why he sank it. I think the captain should have had a little more speed and trim the nose up as well as taking a boating lesson from the blue top Legend
Definitely more speed. In the ocean lack of power can kill.
Any boating lesson at all really. Hell, watch a couple hours of wavy boats and you'll at least know what to try and you won't look like an idiot.
@@jttech44 That silly hat he had on would only look slightly less silly if it was the right way round!
Looked like that Mystery boat was sinking even when going out as was very low in the water, and need to check those engines, those diesels need serious servicing, all that black soot.
Look like a sea trial, befor purchase or smthing. Imo
WOW! Wattt was all that black smoke billowing out the back of the mystery yacht?
Turbo diesel exhaust smoke
I suspect those engines are not well cared for. The captain seems like an idiot, so it all fits.
@@TXAG81Don’t be so hard on yourself, you’re not that much of an idiot.
It sure isn't normal for a healthy engine to blow that much black smoke
Love your channel it’s fun watching
The mystery yacht is a 1990s Hatteras.
My thought also about the Hatteras and totally agree. I was getting more mid 80’s to early 90’s with the port windows, but could be wrong….but those lines on her….read Hattaras. 👍👏👍👏
Them smokey engines must be original and maybe even diesel...
I personally would not step foot on this craft. One look at it would be enough to turn me around.
Detroit Diesels smoke like that.
@@danielramsey1959 I like it in a Semi...it looks like the motor blew up in a boat.
your mysteriey oat is a 63' Hatteras with an extension
4:10 Easy answer, he should have used the damn engines, he's got five of them.
Did that black smoke engine yacht get under the bridge? Looked like a nightmare.
It finally managed to cross under the bridge without making contact.
Even before turning around and yacht listing there was too much black smoke. A mess from the start
Was something on fire? Where does that black smoke come from usually? Looked like it was an older yacht but idk much about boats
@@jackrea237Looks like to be an older yacht with a diesel engine. 🤦🏻♂️
@@jackrea237 Older diesel and alot of throttle. Boat was in rough shape overall, but, older diesels did that when you'd lay on them.
Despite all the other problems, the Hatteras seems to have, it sure goes into reverse nicely and handles the waves better backwards than forwards
It looks kind of like a Hatteras, but I have never seen one with a stern like that.
The hull designer for Hatteras (Hargrave) also designed a lot of hulls for other companies, it may be a Hatteras knock off.
Midnight express captain took off the training wheels too soon.
love watching your vids!!!
3:22 This captain is either very inexperienced, or has just one of 5 engines working! 😁 I can't believe he hasn't even watched vlo9gs on these boats to learn how to navigate rough seas. You have five engines for a reason, you bought a boat with 5 engines for a reason put them to use! 😁👍😎✌🗽
That midnight express could get through hallover at 30+kts in those conditions without much worry and a much smoother ride. Captain needs to watch wavyboats until he understands what to do.
@@jttech44 So true! The dealers that sell these boats should provide free training, and if not accepted by the buyer, they should provide links to vlogs like this that will give them an idea of what to do in these circumstances. Even backing up the trailer makes me cringe when someone who is untrained tries blindly to do it. Some people just have way too much money, and ignorance. However, if they were all intelligent, we'd have less content to watch!😁👍✌😎🗽
He's highly inexperienced! He needs to get on plane, trim those motors up a bit and just GO.
@@TOM-C., all true. But in all honesty, before buying any vessel of that size and power, you really ought to go through a 6-months training class (first aid, navigation, operation, weather, safety, mechanics, marine electronics, and maybe most important; 'common sense'). It blows my mind we ban electric scooters to ride on the side walk, but w/o even so much as thinking are putting 1,500 hp monsters in the hands of people that severely lacks any type or form or nautical or mariner skills.
@@wellcraft19 Yes, exactly! The powers that be have never driven a boat so they have this opinion it's like driving a car, and it's not! You should need a special license to captain a boat.👍😎✌🗽
Some fresh stress cracks
That big boat, I was thinking how stable it was on the way out, no rocking side to side at all. Then see it coming back and it's swaying like mad. Maybe hydraulic stabilisers/steering gone whacky?
na big flatbottom bobber....
What was the costly mistake ?
That antique belching smoke has been sitting behind someone’s riverfront home for 20 years. Now the kid inherited it so he’s checking systems. Steering’s broke.
What the captain on the Midnight Express could have done differently was he could have stayed home and gotten an attitude adjustment!
And training
I get the feeling that Hatteras is a liveaboard they haven't taken out in a couple of years, and they didn't expect the problems they encountered. I wonder if they were mostly running on just one engine on the way back in? I definitely would have called for a tow, especially when it proved so difficult to navigate under the bridge.
Mystery yacht, Hatteras??
Black smoke on the yacht is most likely bad injectors. He's over-fueling and from the looks of the thing, it's probably the original injectors. Possible bad turbo as well. It definitely needs a mechanic.
Yeah I wouldn’t want to be on that yacht anywhere in the ocean.
pressure is wrong, causes damage.
It could be that they've failed to elect a new pope on board.
Or his oil control rings are shot. Thank you! ❤
@@SaltyDrawsFunny is 😂 Funny. Thanks!!
On the big yacht the steering is probably hydraulic and if there's an issue with the engine I'm sure the hydraulic pump is not working
Both engines had exhaust coming out of them so you have to assume they're working properly
@@n40tom Rather black exhaust. Possibly the stocker had a bit of trouble shovelling coal in to the boilers.
@@michaeld5888
Lmbo nice 👌
I really don't think that that much coal black smoke means the engines are running properly diesel or gas
That old Hatteras was didn’t seem rigged or ready for a trip I think they are sea trialing something. Probably had a hydraulic steering issue. I had that happen to me nearing haulover of all places twenty years ago and looked just liked that captain on video. This was right after a service so I definitely didn’t expect that. Crawled through somehow on one engine at power and barely responsive steering. Thank goodness CZcams didn’t exist then! 😂
What the hell are bowriders and pontoon boats even doing in this area. Shaking my damn head
after the pass it can be very calm....OPEN YOUR HEAD
@dustyflair
And use yours my dimwitted friend
That Hatteras around the six minute mark is from the “ in too deep bro “ CZcams channel. It is a young man that bought that boat and drives it from Miami to Maine. I messaged him on Instagram to let him know you got him on your video. Super cool!!
That waving Captain should have done EVERYTHING differently.
Mystery yacht is a Hatteras, probably 68. Blow through anything with semi displacement hull. I had one and 10 - 15 was nothing but keep the windows closed and the bucket close by
At 8:30 the jet ski pilot makes a wise decision to back off that Hatteras
Oh that poor Midnight Express... More money than brains, or balls for that matter. Good lord.
The pontoon-to answer the question if it was avoidable-yes; by not taking a pontoon out to sea. Stay in the bay.
The guy with the midnight express would be ME.
Naperville IL, it’s a cool 48* here, colder tomorrow and snow for Halloween. Enjoy your warm FL days 😢😢
I'll tell you what cap. should have done differently... Should have spent a billion on a cruise ship as opposed to a million on that Midnight. Would probably be the best chance for him to avoid stuffing the bow 27 times. No guarantees.
@0:40 ,, i'd like to be the captain of that one ; o
Mystery yacht was rollin coal! 😂
It must have been running like shit. What a disaster.
Seavee capt is a pro
maybe Eric from Midnight Express should show him how drive that boat.
I think the mystery yacht is a Hatteras? Maybe an older 72?
4:35 That Boston Whaler cut through the rough sea like a hot knife through butter.
Fun af!
Turbo diesel boats are awesome.. hearing that whistle makes me all fuzzy inside. Shame that big yacht had an issue. Still cool 😎
From mid missouri. Looks like the new captain new boat blues from lake of the ozarks. When some rich guy goes and buys a Cigarette or MTI and has never drove a big hp boat
Is that yacht using oily rags for fuel.
Money can't buy wisdom 😂😂😂
Too much money in the ugly USA
First boat: Everybody was safe, good enough. The pontoon "thing": Not a boat at all in my books, those should be towed around in a safe lake....Midnight Express: Worst design for the buck ever, should be declassified for fresh water use only. The skipper was not great either :)
Those Hatteras are rolly Polly for sure
Alot of black smoke coming out of that yacht
4:16 he should have gone faster than 2 knots per hour, lol
That yacht is a Hatteras 61 with the extended salon. Thing needs some maintenance.
The angry captain should know better on how to handle a very expensive bit of kit🤫what a fool.🤣
who would spend $1 million on an open bow boat lol
Or $1,00,000 for a boat only good on sunny days and warm weather.
You got that right. One of my engineers bought one and I asked if I could borrow it to take some cement from the readi mix place in town who said they could put about a yard in the bow, no problem. I didn’t get to use his boat.
Rich people 😊
Me
The Midnight Express should have had more way on the boat to get the bow up. Mystery boat is a Hatteras. I think.
Great capture's 👋👋👋👋👍
Thanks for watching Nick! 🙌
Noob captain was abusing that Midnight Express. He needed to get some speed and bring it up on plane.
The only boat I’d be on is at 4:38. He wasn’t the largest but he knew how to handle it. He wasn’t cocky.
The Mystery Yacht at 5:43 has problems of burning oil, lots of unpleasant polluting fumes coming out of it.
Mystery yacht..SS Minow😂
The mystery yacht is the USS Minnow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😆😆😆
Going through haulover is sort of mild compared to some of the places I have had to roll through, mainly Alaskan waters. And the water ls a bit colder.
I am watching from land locked Huachuca City, Arizona. I was living in Kuwait from 2009 to 2015. Huhuhu...land locked now!!! 🔒
The only mistake he made was backing out of the throttle. 🤙
That yacht is jacked up. Time for the boat graveyard for that thing.
Hatteras with some tired Detroit’s, over propped too
Midnight Expresses usually come flying out and in at 70mph. I am thinking the angry captain had engine trouble.
Maybe engine trouble in his head
I believe that yacht is the SS Minnow. 😅
Don’t think I would go on that boat anywhere😮
You can hear them turbos on that Diesel and that big yacht them turbos sounded sweet
Diesel is dead! Move on folks....
Thats a Hatteras motor yacht, looks to be about 70 feet. By the smoke, I'd guess it's got a pair of 12V71s
the mystery engine on that Aqua Sport is a johnson
I wonder if that captain of the big yacht knows he has black smoke coming from his engine. That doesn't look good.
Exactly! He had black smoke before he even hit a wave. 😂 Bless his heart! Lol
@@kelliekells404 LOL I thought it was going to blow up. Before he put the boat in the water he should have done a safety check. I would never go out without doing one.
I have to say the fortitude of boating culture in Miami, is way different than the Northeast.
And intelligence and good sense.
That is a good way to destroy an offshore racer. Their strength is running their bow into the waves just above the crest of the wave so you don't dig into the wave. If it lands flat on top of a wave, you risk serious, and permanent, structural damage to the boat.
Thanks for that.
I know nothing about boats, but I would think the vast majority of these boats risk getting structural damage, from the way they handle them, and going out in such rough weather.
Maybe he wanted to wash the interior of his new boat?
🤣
Something SERIOUSLY WRONG with that mystery yacht‼️. Looks like it’s on fire🤯
The Hatteras was wallowing. It must have taken on water.
Knob captain should sell the boat if he's scared to use the throttles side note the captain of the big boat is drunk as hell
Agreed on both counts 🍻
The Midnight Express captain should have upgraded those 400's to 600's so he could have accelerated through the inlet.
As a non-boat owner at the moment, what would have been the best way to get out of Haulover/ anywhere else with similar conditions?
Generally speaking, get the boat up on plane and trim the nose up. Get on plane by speeding up, most boats are made to lift up higher in the water. Watch some more of WaveyBoats and Boats versus Haulover videos. BVH he talks about how they are doing, grades who "wins", the boats or Haulover Inlet.
On plane, and trimmed way up. Pull power going up a wave, apply power going down a wave, keep power on inbetween. That'll keep your bow up. Inexperienced captains are afraid of visibility issues, so, they don't trim up, and wind up pushing their bows through the waves instead of over them. You really do have to trust that people are going to use proper channel etiquette and stay on the proper side.
Or just get a bigger boat. 40+ foot yachts can mow through hallover without much drama all day long.
Also, wear a pfd in conditions like this, always. If you bonk your head as you get yeeted overboard, you're dead without one. Maybe dead with one, but, improve your chances you know?
Get the boat up on plane and stick to the north side of the inlet.
I spent years working with big Cigarette boats. The novelty of driving them very quickly wears off and being a passenger faster still.
