I like how the last guy just stared blankly at the camera once he realized the boat was taking on water. “So… now what?” No bilge switch, no sense of urgency, just calm confusion. 😅
No one seem to jump into it like a Karen and start panicking but take over the situation. Hey go in the glove compartment grab me that black plug that’s in there while I start putting it in number two you sit in the captains chair start driving a certain zoning, taken more water on hit the bilge pump. In the meantime, it’s not rocket science. I forgot my plug once before matter fact, I stuck my thumb in there until my buddy got it out of the glovie
When you forget the plug you need to punch the throttle get up on a plane to drain the boat then make a rush to the dock. This is why my plugs are attached to my key. You can't start the boat until you put the plugs in.
I do that too and now I never forget to put the plug in but I keep having trouble getting the boat started so I worked out that it's better to attach them together with a long bit of fishing line.
Sometimes it doesn’t matter. Sold a early ‘60s runabout and got a call that weekend as the guy put the plug in with the handle facing down. Needless to say, as coming on plane it yanked the plug out. I needed to do some engine work after.😂
Gotta get it on plane, empty the water, then get that plug in asap, no way to avoid taking on water unless you pull up on a sand bar with the bow elevated. Hate to say it happens to the best of’em
Actually doesn't happen to anyone with experience, always run your mental checklist, forgetting the basics means you need to take up another hobby that doesn't get people killed
There are many reasons why the person operating a boat should not also be drunk and/or high. We've seen three. And the woman stepping off the boat near the motors while they are still running? Yikes!

Amature weekend is when we'd always stay off the lake. Lived on a lake for years, but there were three weekends where we never went anywhere near the water. Way too many drunk idiots (yes I realize that's redundant).
😂😂 that guy must be a new boat owner or was borrowing that boat or something. He definitely put the plugs in those top holes…which means he is probably taking on water through the main plug hole and through the live wells.
That was so confusing. He knew right where to check when the other guy mentioned him not having a plug in. I didn't get that. Maybe they were trying to scam their insurance company.
I have an extra plug and wrench on the boat, not only for me but in case we run across someone that forgot theirs.

The water doesn’t just stop coming in when you speed up and are on plane, it will syphon the water right out…….then you just pop the plug in if it’s in the boat.
I mean, if your boat is sinking, throttling up and heading towards the shore is not a bad idea anyway. May as well sink a bit closer to land while you're at it.
I mean, everyone forgets a plug at least once, but most at least have the sense to turn the engine off, the bilge on, and jump in to get the plug in, and not just stand there like an idiot
Dude. Those upper holes are to drain the transom. The ones on the side are for the live well. The one you NEVER want to leave out is the one at the BOTTOM. That one is to drain the hull. Or in your case, it is to sink your boat. Luckily this guy knew to tell you before your girl ended up on his boat having to film you as you sink.
“Luckily this guy knew to tell you before you are girl ended up on his boat having to film you as you sink.” Sounds about right. Such a good comment that gets derailed with the misuse of you’re 😂
You know, the boating industry could have collectively come together to make transom plug holes slightly smaller than hull and live well holes so you couldn't make the mistake, or for a few cents could have added a paint ring around each hole with a different color and dyed plugs to match. But they haven't in the decades and decades that people have been putting the plugs in the wrong holes. Good for them. They know a sunken boat is another sale, and there comes a point in your life (if you haven't reached it already) where you stop caring for stupid people with money because you know they got it off the sweat of someone else who is smarter and paid less.
Yeah I wish it was just as easy as putting the plug in! Like when it's in the wrong hole and it doesn't get tight... Wtf call me retarded for just sending it anyway. Oh you are
I picked up a friend's boat from another friend (I know). Anyway, it had my motor on it so we are just all sharing it. When I came to pick it up, it had rained with the plug in. It was full of water. I pulled the plug, and hooked it up. I let it drain for a few minutes, and then started to drive SLOW. I figured that it would drain enough by the time I got on the actual road. I was wrong. Even though most of the water had drained, there was still enough in it to dump the boat off of the trailer when I took a sharp turn. Thankfully, a big strong kid was behind me when it happened. He helped me dump what was left, and put the boat back on the trailer in minutes. It was heavy traffic, so that was good. It didn't hurt the boat at all. Also good, considering it wasn't mine.
Memorial day, Fourth of July, and Labor Day I was you need is a lawnchair and a fucking cell phone are used to tell my girl I’m gonna go down there and put a sign out.

Did the plug thing once as a rookie. My buddy said put it up on a plain, and the water will come out. Did that , and then he was able to put the plug in. Whew!!

@@scottym3 I agree with Carlos,, EVEN YOU, coast guard approved capt has done all of these mistakes...as far as Im concerned etiquette at the launch and in the water and understanding the rules/laws is paramount
On a small boat that can go 20mph+ you can drain the water without a bilge pump by simply accelerating up to plane speed and the water will drain, when it's empty, you either plug it, or drop some one off, to put the trailer in, while you speed around until you can load the boat on the trailer.
When I was a kid my dad had a big cabin cruiser and he would pull that plug out to let the water that had accumulated flow out as we rocketed across the lake. That used to terrify me. You're not supposed to open the boat up TO the water, my 10 yr old self thought. That last guy in that video is in WAY bigger trouble than we were.
I once dove in to a northern Maine lake in November with a wrench and the back up plug in my underwear. I have never forgotten the plug since. My passengers were traumatized
I never even remove my plug, nothing ever comes out when I do anyways (2001 Grady White). I see lots of people at the ramp pulling their plugs and dropping literally dozens of gallons of water and all I can think is if it's that leaky I wouldn't want to be out on it anyways!
I went fishing with a guy I worked with that just bought a “brand new” boat he and was a “great fisherman” that I worked with. Asked me if I wanted to go fishing after work I said sure I’ll meet you at the ramp, 1st clue he showed up with a 1980 sprint boat (granted it was “new” to him I know) 2nd clue he had 3 rod and reels that’s it. I specifically asked him did you put the plug in, straps off of the boat, build primed and trolling motor plugged in. Yes, yes, yes, yes, so I backed the boat in the water park the truck and trailer and we go fishing……….for about 25 minutes. When a boat starts taking on water you can feel it getting lower in the water. So I asked him “you are sure you put the plug in” he replies “yes I put BOTH of them in”…………:BOTH??? He said yes, “the two plug thingys right by the motor mounts and primer bulb and fuel line” my reply was “get us to the F’ing shore as fast as this piece of shit antique will go”
I can almost forgive the plug, it’s the straps that blow my mind. My trailer is right beside a boat launch, so many people back in without undoing their straps.😂
Boating & Water don’t leave a lot of room for amateurs. I’ve been on a boat docking when things aren’t going well … and the world is watching you flail. It’s rough. But most people want to try and help… you just gotta show that you’re willing to act in the best interest of your crew/passengers/boat and other boaters.
When around other boats or the dock, i was always told never to go any faster than you are willing to hit something. So many people are waaaaaay overusing the throttle.
He may have forgot it, but those plugs that don’t actually screw in fall out sometimes. I don’t know if he was confining the one in the back was still there or not, but if that’s the one missing you can just cruise for a while and get most of it out and pop another one in if you have it and let the bilge do the rest. Otherwise it’s back to the ramp.
As someone who never reads the *owners manual* I can attest that this dude is one of us. Only difference is that I do my research in other ways like watching videos of how it’s done especially if my life depends on it. 😂

I’ve been Guiding for 20 years, always stick to the same routine for boat check when launching. Plug, straps, battery switch, etc. Just the other day I fished a new client, got to the ramp that morning and he was chatting up a storm and in the mix of everything I checked everything besides the plug. Put her in and by the time I got to the dock my feet were wet and I said “ohh fuck”, cut the bilge on and jumped straight in the water to screw the plug in. Soaking wet 6:45 in the morning, what a way to start the day. Shit happens. 😂😂😂
“I had them in where the plugs go” “oh” “I think you’re right”… then blankly stares at camera man waiting for him to get him through it.😂😂 Qualified Captain
my dad put the plugs on inside of our lil fishing boat in the middle of the lake it pops out and only thing we had was a lil trolling motor by time we got to ramp we were ankle deep in water ole good times
I was a tournaments ski boat dealer for quite a long time and we always had a new tournament boat on a hi Mtn. lake at a family owned home. I thought everyone including the parents, siblings, nieces and nephews and of course my wife and daughter how to take care of a boat and most importantly how to drive one. Fallen boards are a little trickier than outboards and Inboard outboards. Nobody ever seem to learn how to tie the boat up correctly or docket correctly. They damaged one of my demo boats constantly. It drove me crazy. They would trash a boat in one season😵💫
I lent my boat to a buddy when we were in our 20s, he took it outta town for a week and on the 1st day he calls me and asks if it's normal to have 4" of water inside the boat... He was too busy chatting up dock rats to remember to put the plugs, and they were attached to the keys....
It's shitty when you forget your plug
Yeah I did that one time rushing. But it'll never happen again I have bilge pumps

@@jdmtechllc6589 Ppl don't born knowing, but they should study and learn better before buying and driving powerful boats. It's dangerous.

I mean, if your boat is sinking, throttling up and heading towards the shore is not a bad idea anyway. May as well sink a bit closer to land while you're at it.
Yep punch the throttle and keep any additional water from getting in and B-line it to shore.
I'll just stand here and see what happens lol😂
Let's see how this plays out
So many people in the boating community have more $$ than actual knowledge of what they’ve purchased.
A lot like the post i made very true. More cash than brains. Haha lot of ppl are show boaters

So you go through a couple of boats, it's a learning process. 😊
"Never *approach* the dock...... any faster than you want to *hit* the dock!!"
If you’re taking on water I think the shore is where you want to immediately head instead of getting up and cluelessly walking around the boat.

@@dont.ripfuller6587the only thing that keeps me sane around you flat earthers is the knowledge that your cult cannot survive the next 10-20 years. Now that space tourism is a thing, you have precious few years of confused delusion left before the video evidence becomes overwhelming, or a flat earth leader goes up and sees it for himself. That last option will take a while, though, because anyone gullible enough to believe flat earth probably couldn’t save $1000. Maybe Elon or Bezos will just gift a ride to a bunch of you tools to end our frustration.
@@alphazuluz Alright then it's should be way too cold. Tomato tomato.
I don't have any explanations for things, space is stupid. I'm just here to provoke the wannabe scientists.
I’ve been Guiding for 20 years, always stick to the same routine for boat check when launching. Plug, straps, battery switch, etc. Just the other day I fished a new client, got to the ramp that morning and he was chatting up a storm and in the mix of everything I checked everything besides the plug. Put her in and by the time I got to the dock my feet were wet and I said “ohh fuck”, cut the bilge on and jumped straight in the water to screw the plug in. Soaking wet 6:45 in the morning, what a way to start the day. Shit happens. 😂😂😂
When the plug is missing run your boat on plan... Water will actually drain out of the boat.
I’ve done it. Lucky I saw how low boat was riding and get it back to the dock
“I had them in where the plugs go” “oh” “I think you’re right”… then blankly stares at camera man waiting for him to get him through it.😂😂 Qualified Captain
His look said perhaps, "get the f outta heah", can't you see I'm tryin ta scuttle a boat heah?? The f outta heah, lol
Last guy obviously has no idea what he’s doing, standing there like he’s waiting for the guy to tell him what to do.
Shit like this is why I put in at the most remote and empty boat landing and why I avoid boat traffic whenever possible.
It’s so fucking shitty when you are out in the water in your pontoon & it flips over then someone hits you lol😂
my dad put the plugs on inside of our lil fishing boat in the middle of the lake it pops out and only thing we had was a lil trolling motor by time we got to ramp we were ankle deep in water ole good times
I bet he's got a Marijuana card.
It's OK we'll just listen to Dark Side of the Moon.
🤣😴
I was a tournaments ski boat dealer for quite a long time and we always had a new tournament boat on a hi Mtn. lake at a family owned home. I thought everyone including the parents, siblings, nieces and nephews and of course my wife and daughter how to take care of a boat and most importantly how to drive one. Fallen boards are a little trickier than outboards and Inboard outboards. Nobody ever seem to learn how to tie the boat up correctly or docket correctly. They damaged one of my demo boats constantly. It drove me crazy. They would trash a boat in one season😵💫
That’s not the time to find out where the plug goes but good thing your there like a super hero only if they listen at times lol
I lent my boat to a buddy when we were in our 20s, he took it outta town for a week and on the 1st day he calls me and asks if it's normal to have 4" of water inside the boat... He was too busy chatting up dock rats to remember to put the plugs, and they were attached to the keys....
The guy just stands there lol
If my plug was missing I’d probably be hauling ass back to the ramp
The last guy needs to start it up fast. It doesn't leak as much at speed. Then get to a beach or something....
this is a prime example of anyone can by a boat but few can actually drive one
Dude thinks the top plug is the only one😂
you can tell he just bought that boat with no EXPEIRENCE at all
I used to think boaters were the coolest people until I got a boat😂
Wow you're pumping it out with your build pump
Last guy calmly questioning whether he can swim the distance back
