What a great way for me to enjoy my morning coffee . Sitting around -6 F in Northern Ontario , Canada . Heheh, that first boat, made me look it up. You know for research , just in case a windfall comes my way . Literally just started to watch .
MrDeman40 glad you are watching from Canada !! That's where it all got started for Me!! I grew up on the Welland Ship canal and did most of my boating growing up around Great Lakes and Minden Ontario! Floridian now but love coming home in the summer time when its nice there!
Stu, you do a great job with these videos. What you are doing makes the memory for those that participate a more pleasant event. It is also inspiring for those like myself that are saving for Offshore Boats!
Many thanks! Hope to see you one day on a poker run with FPC

Love your channel Stu! Also Thank you for turning the music down so us gear heads can hear the real stars of the video's! Lol
Glad you enjoyed it! Problem with the engines now..the new outboards make little to no noise, so nothing to hear from up in the chopper. Thank god just a few of us with big stern drive V8's and straight headers!👍👍
"watch out for the dog shit." lol well played.
ALWAYS GOOD ADVICE, ...Right? And also, don't eat that yellow snow!
look like some rain! Doug wright bet he wants to fly!?love the old cigs
Yeah, Doug Wright super light... lots of air in the light chop! Old Cig run like snow plows through the rough waves..Love my 38 Top Gun!
I've been waiting for that one, Really great video, as usual with the fl powerboat club !

Lisa, BAHAMAS Coming soon, July 2020! Hope you are planning to join us one day soon!
“ watch out for that dog sh?t”. Words to live by!
Yah.... its all over the beach and you get floaters in the water with those little piggies. " ~Thats not a chocolate bar!!!!
Apaixonado por náutica , show demais
Si Idalcez! We are very passionate about boating also, just like you. Thank you for watching our channel!
Commented on another video reasons I can see why the center console is becoming so popular and wow that I think 39ft mti with the red graphics is absolutely stunning! Now with the new Merc 450R can really have some great performance. Even though the Merc 400R is no slouch either and the fuel economy difference from the big cubic inch supercharged or other forms of forced induction performance boats isn't even close. Those Mercs use 1/4 of the fuel lol
Andy ...thanks for the comments. Just to clarify, if you are referring to Center consoles ...the MTI center console model is a 42 foot boat.. They also have a 39 foot boat but that is in the new catamaran series. Thanks:)
Hey Stu, I saw your project 1080 boat on Wavy Boats channel recently. Have you seen it? Your boat looked bad ass!
Jeremy yes sir, I saw my boat on that channel, thanks for the heads up! Glad you like it:)
Thanks for another awesome video! sorry to hear Project 1080 was down.
yah it was just a little water hose in the transom that was leaking, barely visable but enough to suck air into the system and fry an impeller before I even left the dock.. Bummer!
Thanks, but the good news....its running like a champ now and gonna take to BAHAMAS in July with FPC
@@FLpowerboatClub Awesome! You are living the life!!! cant wait for the video.
Muito bom
GRACIAS AMIGO, Thank you for watching!
Nice video
Thank you for watching!
Great videos. Like to run my boat down there sometime.
Michael, yes pleas come join us some day, we are year-round with events all through Florida!
@@FLpowerboatClub absolutely will. Looks like a blast
I noticed a shift from diesel engines to outboards. Is is because of the EPA and all the emissions stuff? Or another reason?
HyperXism ...answer probably has many dimenions, but primarily lightweight, reliable, bolt-on horsepower that runs on easily accessible low-octane gasoline.. Mercury Marine and Mercury Racing made it an easy decision for buyers that want reliable long-range cruising, without sacrificing performance!
Florida Powerboat Club Stu Jones thank you for the answer! Your videos are amazing!!
13:22 Are you sure nobody had a problem putting those life jackets on?
JFK ... yah I think we busted him just before we went on plane to cross gulfstream:) Nobody likes wearing them but we are the paceboat so we have to set a good example for others:)
How much fuel ⛽️ are you going through on a 6 day event with quad 400r’s??
I think the MPG on those are about 1-.5 MPG
Eazy (below) is correct. If the average quad 400 boat is about .8 mpg, we do 600 miles, thats 750 gallons. Average price on the water is $ 4.50 lets say, thats about $ 3400 in fuel for a quad boat... It can go either way depending on what cruise speed you select, but most find a sweet spot around 50mph cruise. Thanks for asking!
seams to me that the MTI sail much better then the other, better then freman too.
Lorenzo, all these powerboats SAIL just great! Especially when we hoist the Jib! 🤣🤣
Awesome! How can I become a member?
Hello thank you for asking, you may just go on our website, and register to be a member: www.flpowerboat.com Thank You!
half the girls on the boats you can tell are trophy wife’s 😂
Cole, some my actually find that flattering:) Others...well lets just hope they don't read these comments😉
No Midnight Express?
Not on this run, because we created a run to Bahamas just for Midnight Express owners, its call the Midnight Express Bimini Rendezvous, and can be searched here on this channel. Thanks for noticing!
Hope you waved to ZipZap while you were there
RUSS.. Always lookin' out for zip zap, but sometimes its hard when I'm trying to drive the Cigarette through those nasty waves in Haulover Inlet!! yikes!
ZIP ZAP joined in again for Key West poker run!
Watch out for that dog shit 😆😆
Words to live by! I walked out to my truck today and my dog decides to CRAP right in the driveway beside my brand new truck!! WTF ..LOL
8:49... showing everyone how to get your card the simple way! Not sure why everyone felt the need to put themselves at risk by standing on the bow of moving boat.
the boats are going very very slow for the cards. Its not dangerous really
@@FLpowerboatClub True enough, but every boater knows how fast things can turn ugly.
What happens if you gotta use the bathroom
these boats have lavatories, small but works!
@@MahendraSingh-rp6er OK thank you so much
thanks for clearing that up halflife... But, lets face it, only the girls need bathrooms, Us dudes can sneak it out wherever and whenever..LOL
You keep repeating “reliable center console”. What’s unreliable about a modern, mild 520 powered craft? You’ll see hundreds of problem-free hours on them.
Oscar yes 520 stern drives are reliable also,- but usually only two 520's on a powerboat...vs 3-4 outboards. We have learned over years, outboard applications have proven to be reliable with less maintenance than sterndrive. But trust me, I am a strong sterndrive lover....my two boats are mercury racing powered stern drives, five motors in all...
5:44 are those real?
Who cares. They work for me.
I dont know ...better ask the guy who manages them...@bennettloftin 😉

My only complaint is that there is So much TALKING!! I found myself fast forwarding hoping to hear the sound of the boats, but just kept hearing so much Bla-Bla. Let’s hear the boats, not the DJ working to stretch it out talking over the music.
North Northwest- sorry but you dont seem to understand our mission as producers. These are travel documentaries by design. Purpose is to educate viewers on who the attendees are, what kind of boats, destinations, activities, procedures...bla bla bla. This is not a monetized episode, nor is for promoting engine noise. There is very little because engine noise bc most are outboards and make NO detectable noise when underway. We have other videos that are focused on loud engines, but not on this series
If I may quote viewer @Brandonthorbahn : More incredible footage from fpc, you guys are awesome! I can’t get enough of these videos. Very informative and educational, all of your videos are like this. I get to see the baddest boats on the planet and learn about them while touring beautiful Florida.
