Great video Maybe next year tow a tuber behind your boat that would be even more entertaining 🇨🇦 Greetings from Vancouver Island British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦
Great shots of the boat taking on this rapids. Handling waves in first run was not best. There is no better thrill than taking a jet upstream on these white waters
That whitewater is so aerated that the jet is having a hard time "pumping" water for thrust. In whitewater like that a jet boat can loose 60% of it's thrust or power leaving a 300hp boat with just over 100hp effectively. I was helping build an off-grid cabin up river on the rogue river. We had heavy rain for a week and were expecting the river to be up and fast but wow. Just about every trip we made was with a ton of wood and a ton of building supplies. we got into a couple of aerated spots of water and lost most of our thrust and buoyancy, was quite scary.
The poor blue boater just couldn’t get the hang of it till the end but put up one hell of a fight and won. Cool to see a definite pattern in the wave 🌊 and all way changing every sec so you have to see your own pattern that no one ☝️ else but you can see. That’s a dam good gift to have. Way to go for all who took part in that awesome talent of skilled professional pilots of these boats.👍🏼✅🤩😎

I saw boats do this up close while on a rafting trip on the Snake River thru Hells Canyon. there are serious hydraulics on these reeves. The guides told us that there are many a boat that gets sucked under by the hydraulics
Years ago I had a 22' North River jet. Chevy 454, Hamilton 212 pump, extra wide, 1/4" bottom.......the wife said it was her or the boat. Well, glad to say I chose her. Couldn't tell you though what my ex is up to these days.
@@Kitchfox there's a shit load of Salmon rivers in New Zealand. Have a search through youtube, you'll find heaps i reckon. One of the best (biased), is close to my old home town, Oamaru; it's the Waitaki River. I've seen some monster salmon jumping out where the fresh meets the salt, getting ready for their run... 30kg plus, and much bigger back when I was in my teens. Maybe it's not as good these days, as with most fishing, who knows.
I seem to recall that fish-like propulsion has been tried on boats, but it always fails. Fortunately or unfortunately, I've not dived into the topic to figure out why.
@@graemedalgleish8944 those guys are still pretty brave. Unless I had a really powerful engine and could just run up that quick and without hesitation I wouldn’t be trying it. One wrong move or the nose goes under the rapids and there’s a good chance that the boat will flip and then you’re screwed.
@@porscheguy09 I have an outboard jet on 16 foot lund and there is no way in he'll I would try it. Mine is barely adequate out here on the flat land rivers.
Please subscribe! It really helps!
Please add more information. It really helps. What are they doing? Why are they all drifting under no power back downstream?

Breath taking experience. The video I see that I don’t wink my eyes.
Great video

Losing buoyancy sounds terrifying.

Shut up
Look ok oo
went there twice in the 80s. best trip on earth

Now we need a big mechanical bear to catch these metal salmon heading up stream..
do we
Where ever they going, fishing must be crazy good. And time for a bigger boat.
NAHHH. just add more motor !!!
So basically 4×4 on water...its beautiful.
I can't imagine how bad this goes when you lose the engine.
No directional control and rocky shores. Probably very badly, total loss maybe. I’d be more worried about how I’m getting myself out the water though.
Nice boatmanship, guys! I wanna drive one of those boats!!!
Lindo demais
This pretty sick. Like rock crawling for boats.
one thing about this sport; a power failure at the wrong time and you are screwed
If that power failure happens...
Definitely would then appreciate a title of couch potato instead of a hero...
james ellis
Nah man, check out the tiny outboard on the back. Should be fine. . . 😜
The name of your boat must be "Captain Obvious".
Fun to watch. But no way would I want to ride along. Thanks for posting so us chickens could enjoy from afar...

Thats just the power of Mother Nature. Without it we would not survive. Always respect
Nunca vi tamanha força das águas e do motor e destreza do operador! Like e inscrição com todo o prazer!
Awesome skills....lot of balls to do that.
That was as good of a demo vid sas I've ever seen. So, the bigger engine it is!
They are just having fun. To pass this easily you should go left first then just straight to the stream.
@T then drop a ton or so of weight. Then the river doesn't seem as shallow.... Your boats look super heavy compared to ours.
I was wondering why they were running the meat. That makes sense.
Wave crawling! Like rock crawling but up rapids instead of cliff faces, very cool
Oh my god.. scarier than the longest river in Indonesia, the KAPUAS river 👍🏻
I really like these little boats
ALL HORSEPOWER !!! listen to those big 8's growl !!!
Love those pedestal fishing seats on the aft deck.

great video. I am coming out for one of these trips in the near future. Looks awesome. W

Something mighty damn important upstream. I just dont know what it is yet. All I know is at every big river wave is a nice big rock.

I used to do this on the Snake River below Palisade Dam. My run was a joke compared to this
Those crazy new Zealanders have been mastering this for years
Looks more like the Salmon river in Idaho. Not sure if there's a Salman river in New Zealand but it's a common enough name who knows

Que potencia muy bonito .... Empezaré a practicar en mis calles México cada que llueve se inundan jaja
Boaters version of 4X4'ing.
i was thinking the same thing. there is easy lines, moderate and hard
Tharin 4Prez and bad ass boats love it
Little more extreme since the water will try to violently beat and murder you when things go wrong in the rapids
@@Alex-us2vw similar to tumbling down a mountain when 4x4 ing
Really great performance congratulations 👌👌👌
Balls of steel on these fellas.
This is better than mud riding because you do not have to clean up afterwards.
Just your shorts.
I imagine those hulls are constantly getting dinged up, but it's a hypnotic video to watch!
The guy in first boat had the most fun!
That is a positive perspective!
@@idahovikingnhoih.awljjgffo.io6
That's so funny, I didn't notice
Maravilha...enfrentando a fôrça da naturêza...motores super potentes, conhecimento, muita agilidade e sangue frio.
Ice cold. And an iron stomach 😆
Horsepower, brass balls and a good hull shape is all that you need!
Wow best video sharing friend, greetings know me from malaysia 👍
I soooo want a boat like that 🤤
What a dangerous sport
The first boat seemed clearly underpowered
Its smaller than the others.
It was Chevy powered others had Fords
He sucked at driving is all
Andrew B no it’s underpowered and not made for white water
First boat was taking on water. Watch the water pouring out from the bottom of the hull. Right where that dent is. Nice hole.
GREAT JOB behind the camera!
Fuck! That was enjoyable to watch. Just subscribed keep them coming
Wow that was quite a ride, and thanks to the other two sleds
Man that's cool!!! Bet that's funnern hell!!
Wow.. soooper thrilling...mind blowing
Cool never seen this type boating before!!
That’s epic guys God bless
fellah in the silver boat knows what he's doing
They all do

Waoooww I like watching

Now that looks like a RUSH
Я невольно вдохнул и задержал дыхание, пока катера шли на подъем!
that video made me nervous just watching it....... well done fellas
That river takes some Serious horsepower to overcome!!
Pretty sure the little blue boat is not supposed to have water coming out from the bottom of the boat haha
That's great what a blast looks like a lot of experience in those boats
Splish splash, I was takin' a bath (Brandon on purpose)
FUNNY how the salmon make it up thru the rapids no problem. Maybe the boats need some fins!

The blue boat looks like it has a deeper v entry than the rest of them , need a lot more power.
Very dengerous bro...
Man that's straight up bad to the Bone little boat
SUPER VIDEO BEAUTYFULL
Mean water, great boats
This is like off-roading for boats. Off-lakeing if you will 😂
Raw engine power is everything
Its your best safety device
The best view N so amazing..
And I thought dodging snags on the Atchafalaya River was tough. Looks like fun ! ! !
Very very nice man
Wow.amazing boat
Skill dewa ieu mah wa euy....hade lah
Nice boat
Pretty cool
So, its like surfing or slolom skiing? cool
not enough power captain
Guy in the Blue Boat.. probably he is one of the trainers, he really was having fun.weeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
nothing is impossible for you✌️👏🤩
Besar arusnya mester..👍👍
this is so so so so intense adrenaline
Wow that’s extreme boating
Looked like the first boat had a hole in the bottom , I wonder if water weight was a issue.
That looks fun. Cool vid
1st boat be like "oh shit we gonna make it", but then he stalls at the drop," nope we going down"
2nd boat "aiight ima show you how it's done boys"
Im sure there all wearing life jackets to and in perfect physical shape in case they swim ....😂😂😂
Im watching this on 04.02.2023, Saturday 0622am here in Borneo.
Wow amazing
The blue boat looks like it could use more power.
I bet it will have more next year.
