My home port is Sebastian inlet, but we don't have near as much high-end traffic as you guys do down south, but I've witnessed three boats cap size in the same day.
New to the channel. Great videos!! I like rough inlet and canal videos. You like old school lol. I got a little 22 foot aluminum freshwater fishing boat and up to two years ago I ran the original twin 1987 Mercury 115 power towers 😂😂😂😂. Don’t laugh at me to hard 😂😂😂😂😂
I use to mate on an older Luhrs 38. Solid, solid boats in rough water. Not a lot of high end speed, but the will be an absolute Bulldozer in rough water.
About 20 miles north of OC is Indian River Inlet. It can get much rougher than OC especially on outgoing tide. Much more water running through there because it's a straight shot out the inlet. Big standing waves are common. Not as bad as it used to be since they removed the old bridge and pilings but still gets pretty snotty from time to time.
Yes I think outboards are better than in boards. For one easy to work on and take the motor off and install a new one so much easier. Boynton Inlet I think that’s the name of it close to Lake Worth Florida or passed it. Remember the Coast Guard station and a banana boat bar and beer can island. I live in Jersey now it’s been years since I’ve been in Florida
I remember when "American Lady" was built and spent their first season in OC. They were over at the White Marlin Marina. FYI - ladies and gentlemen, the American Lady is darn near 30yrs old.
They move them around in the water generally. However sometimes it can be a huge project, a local company Jim Smith took all night to move there 100 footer to the water.
You can get a boat registered anywhere as long as you own property there. I’ve seen Vikings registered to Jackson Hole Wyoming and other landlocked regions.
Viking 82 - Sweetums The guy next to me at work asked me how they get the boat off the bow,,,, told him it comes off automatically when the large boat sinks
We had two Vikings in the 70's, but over time they became the sole provenance of the super rich (see Michael Jordan). They are the best... and should be for what that cost.
There used to be two boats with dark blue hauls running out of OC. Pumpin' Hard and it's sister boat. Back in the day, they were two of the faster "Battle Wagons" running out of OC.
The OC inlet was cut out after a hurricane the land you see in the opposite side is Assategue island. Wild ponies still roam the island. It’s. A great place to visit.
Sweet vessels clearly meant for traveling big water . outboards are cool but longevity is in the diesels favor . I'll trade speed for reliable long life .
What inlet should I cover next?

Yes, LOVE coverage of the Inlet I spent so many years working out of.
That Viking 66 has some serious hull care going on with that reflection.
Fabulous videos mate' love these BIG sportfisherman underway. Best...
Great video. Love the comments and model identifications. Well done.
Love the video. I think that mystery boat is a Black Fin. It looks just like on I was going to buy. Tower and all
This is the tournament of the rich and famous beautiful boats incredible
I do like coverage of various inlets. Keep them coming!
Mystery Boat. Hines Farley I think was the Topless later the Magic Touch. Beautiful Boat.
Great event. I was on that Viking 65.
Very cool!
@@RoughInlets PS. Love the channel. Salute
I so agree, that Winter custom with Quads on the back is beautiful, absolutely beautiful! That would be my boat of choice.
That boat is sick

Outboard motors are really good but I hate trying to fish around them, so I'll keep my inboards. Shamrock 26
But they don't smell bad =-p
@@RoughInlets I love the smell of a deisel
MJ got you a sub & like.🤔😲😲😲😂😂😂😂

They run well

Of course Michael Jordan his crew caught a wayable fish that day!! When you're the GOAT you find fish!

Beautiful boats! How about the Oregon Inlet, North Carolina?...during the stripped bass run in Nov and Dec???...and the Indian River Inlet, Delaware?
I will have to check it out
Jarrett Bay #1 for style points!!
I remember when "American Lady" was built and spent their first season in OC. They were over at the White Marlin Marina. FYI - ladies and gentlemen, the American Lady is darn near 30yrs old.
Still looks great!
Cover 'Hells Gate', East River/Harlem river intersection @ NYC. whirlpools and rough..
I miss living there.
Serious question, why would a boat like the one at 2:10 homeport in Dallas? What does he use a semi-truck as a tow vehicle?

Viking 82 - Sweetums The guy next to me at work asked me how they get the boat off the bow,,,, told him it comes off automatically when the large boat sinks
They just untie it and stuff the bow

Great video and I also wish someone tell us the what the mystery boat is
Go to where you can do your best work when and where it is. Invest your time in to what makes you the most! Life is short!
the SK tourney or Tarpon rodeo in South Louisiana
Older Topaz were (and to some degree still are) a staple to the OC Skyline.

Mystery boat is a Hines farley I think
Yes is a Hines Farley. Was in Venezuela and end in the hands of Adrian a friend in Puerto Rico. Beautiful boat.
Where were the Bertram's ?
Mystery boat is a 47 hines farley called REEL ONE
I think the small boat on the front of the one boat was probably a Whaler.
So is it still called a Viking 80' even if it is a 84'?
The blue boat is reel one
I think the mystery boat might be a L&H

Jordan ain’t letting people win in nothing but tipping 🤣
Where did the guy who jumped in the water go?
80 Viking is Michele jorden
Terrible placement of the captions, right in the way. Only video I’ve seen do this, couldn’t finish watching.
