Seriously, this little thread has me thinking I need to scratch build one of those 4 or 5 motor center console Midnight Express 50 footer boats. They look really awesome.
For those who don't know how to navigate an inlet with a hard outgoing tide, here are some hints. Going out is not so bad, you do have to watch the fact that if you are not going faster than the tide, you can loose the ability to navigate(turn). Coming in is the tricky part. The rule you want to follow is never let your bow dip down, the tide will pull it under. The safest way is to put your bow on the back of a wave, match it's speed, and follow it in. When the wave dissipates if there are no more waves to fall off of, you can take off. One thing you have to remember. When you are maneuvering to enter the inlet and get on the back of your wave, make sure no wave sneaks up behind you and lifts your stern. This will also make your bow dive down and can be disastrous. So in summary, going in on and outgoing tide, don't go over the top of a wave and fall off and don't let a wave catch up to you from behind. Make sure you boat has enough power to keep up with the outgoing tide while pushing on a wave. This can be tricky if you think you have a super fast boat, but it's propped just for speed, it still might not have the power to keep you in position.
I have spent 8 yrs in the Royal Australian Navy, l have sailed around the world, l have been in force 10 gales on a aircraft carrier, a force 8 and 9 in a navy destroyer. I have owned a yacht, now a days lm proud to say lm a fair weather sailor, been there, done that. So when l see people who want to go out in rough seas, l just think, stupid. 😆
That first boat cut right threw the watter like it was on flat water who ever desighned that boat good job it probly gulps fuil but its a smoth ride 65 esrellia
I agree. My father always had us put the fenders away when not in use, it looks sloppy if they're out while under way. I laugh when I see a boat on a trailer on the highway with fenders out.....what are they going to tie up to? 🤷🏼♀️
Gota get to the jet ski if you’re going to save the girl. He did the right thing going straight after the jet ski. It could easily have gotten away from him.
Enjoyed the show! Very entertaining. The Ferretis and Hatteras hulls were beautiful.With the breakers .The jet skis though.Well I'm an old salt and they really should be playing a little further out.Give the weekenders some room at the entrance. I seen too many accidents at sea .
The HCB...that is one boat/captain that could have rolled in at high speed and not felt a thing. But the captain came in with respect and grace nice and easy. No need to show off with speed.
A 65’ quint center console demonstrates more money than brains.. 👩💻engineering proves it….but that’s Florida…..man?! I would be disappointed if Florida Man wasn’t so predictable over the last 60 years😳 Greetings from Newport Beach, CA😎
I expected to see at least one body fly off the second deck of the Atlantis. That was terrible. I bet some people on that trip never get on a boat again. And I’m also convinced that some people never bother to check the marine weather for current and expected conditions. They get too far gone in the inlet and say “oh, shit”. .
There's been a few days that my 36 yellowfin (and me knowing what in doing at the helm) felt like not enough boat. Skill at the helm makes any boat "bigger" (meaning knowing what you are doing makes your boat handle rough stuff better then a bigger boat that has a less skilled pilot at the helm) but some times the rollers are spaced just right to really make it tough... I have never been out there in rhr 36 and felt dangerous but it will wake you up on rough days... A lot of days are pretty smooth but HO can get nasty that's for sure.
The Inboard sportfishermans with fly bridge like the viking's are always going to be the scene stealers. Classic beauties and sound and feel so different than outboard. Also this passage is not for recreation and playing with big waves . So jet skis should be monitored and fined if driving reckless like the first duo.
johnthegreek1980 , As bad as it looks , but that’s is they only way for the passenger to get back on a jetski when riding tandem .. the first passenger has to be on a bit on a throttle while the passenger climbs from behind . This is to crate balance so the jet ski won’t flip over. This is when you’re trying to get back on ruff water that is
It's a stupid boat and all but fair play to the HCB skipper bringing her in smoothly on the swell. Seems like most of the others are impatient and a bit clueless.
Lots of money but no brains...notice how all the boats continue in the rough water...and big waves...but just to the sides of the inlet the water is calm. I used to live near Haulover and ran the inlet in all kinds of weather. Just past the jetty, on either side the water is deep and calm . Actually, I should say...CALMER! its still a bit rough. Note how the Hattereas 36 came in... rather than beat his brains out in the extremely rough waters...he cut in through the side where the waves are alot smaller. Hes a charter boat that runs Haulover serveral times a day and knows how to do it.
I love your video and all but sometimes I think it’s proper to yell out to who ever lost there tender and tell them.even if you have to stop recording.at least by the end of the day you’ll know that you did something great and helped someone.but anyways I love your videos keep up the great work😀
I really like how you put all the models of the boats on there. 👍
I was waiting on a caption for the bird.
U little boat spotter bet u play with em in bath
Right? Now if I ever wanna go boat shopping with the money I do not have I’ll know which one to stare at

Absolutely love watching these videos. Who knew watching boats going in and out of an inlet could be so entertaining.
Very calming. Water and wave movement with a parade of boats
Notice how the sport fisherman master it. The guys with the boats out to impress have not got a clue.
Those Midnight Express boats are so stunning.
HCB 65’ Estrella cruising the inlet like it’s flat water on a Sunday morning 😂
There’s no replacement for (hull) displacement ...
I genuinely do not understand why someone would want a 65’ center console. For that kind of money I would at least want a cabin.
has a dope cabin
Because these people want to maximize outdoor seating space for their sandbar partying. Theyre just big day boats
You should look at the interior before you say that. The cabin is beautiful and full bathroom
I don't have a boat, and don't particularly like going on boats. I love these videos great stuff. Reminds me why.
Ate an edible and have been on your AMAZING CHANNEL for well over 3 hrs now
Mother-in-law was in the tender, he’s no dummy...
dude that 65 estrella is the dream
So Awesome I know. BIG $.
I've seen a lot of couch riders but I have yet to see someone jumping those waves on a standup jet ski
So satisfying especially when you can’t sleep ❤️
I absolutely adore the sound of those Detroit 6-71s on Atlantis (6:30). Very reliable and nice sounding engines.
People are such hater, no one screamed to let him know what was happening. It would have made for better content having him try to recover it.
It’s more funny to watch him not even notice. Too much money and not enough brains to look over his shoulder from time to time
He'd have likely had a worse day messing about in there.

That 65 was like what Inlet 🧐😂👊🏼
Huge fan of your videos! Keeps me dreaming of sunny days on the water. Thank you!!!
Wow! I bet she's really impressed now with that maneuver.
That HCB just slid right through
I love the opening shot!! 😂😂
That Estrella at the beginning might as well have been a Navy Destroyer for how smooth it went through
Beautiful isn’t it
Love these. So relaxing!👍☘️
I got seasick for the first and last time on a boat like that. It should be listed as a torture technique
In Norway, not hiding the fenders away is a common giveaway that the captain or people onboard are rookies, or just dumb.
Those are the only options?
Bold
Ex retd
I agree. My father always had us put the fenders away when not in use, it looks sloppy if they're out while under way.
I laugh when I see a boat on a trailer on the highway with fenders out.....what are they going to tie up to? 🤷🏼♀️
Love seeing those Waverunners jump! Great video.
thanks, i wish we could get more clips of that!
you l8ke c8nvrrtm 1985 wavrinn tpp emtrc
65 ESTREALLA?!?!? Goddamn!! That thing is huge, rich ass folks on that boat, shoulda got some seven marine engines
That dude was more worried about his jet ski than his girl.
Wouldnt you?
Gota get to the jet ski if you’re going to save the girl. He did the right thing going straight after the jet ski. It could easily have gotten away from him.
Props to the sea tow guy, handling those swells like a boss -- in a zodiak haha
You are still the best zipzap, forget about the imitators!
Thanks! Variety should be ramping up, my crew in Miami is getting up to speed, freeing me up to hit places all over the country in 2020.
Great video guys. Keep up the great work
I did one of those party fishing boats once in LBI NJ. Half the boat was puking the entire time.
Lots of barfing on Atlantis I reckon.🤮
Sea Ray with fenders out...big surprise there.
Fenders out with a bro on the bow, no life jacket, and some good swell. Yeah I think we have a bingo winner here
Trim angles are important , sometimes
I think the pilot of Atlantis needs to go back to school,shocking boatmanship
Any boater worth their salt knows not to attack waves like that
Therapy IV has a good skipper.

I will definitely hit that 👍LIKE button for not being on the party boat.. HOLY WHITE CAPS BATMAN!!!
The charters cut through it like a lazy Sunday.
I love the Estrella
7:35 is like Nope!....I’m waiting till slack tide
Had the drone out yesterday and saw that. I can't tell ya how many boats run around with their tenders not secure.
At 1:05, this boat has an adult in command.
I wondered why so many of the boats were coming in with their outriggers still out! Thank you Zippy!
you were not alone! i figured 6 years in, i should probably address that!
From what I saw, they need them out so they don't hit the bridge
@ 9:31 il Ferretti fa vedere chi comanda!
esatto
Thanks for clarifying why they are coming in with their outriggers out!!
Happy new year from Australia 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
Cheers!
Another year of great videos. Thank you.
Midnight express took it like a boss.
There trash
Estrella is my dream boat, once I win the lottery...
So videos with Estrella in them get 2,000,000+ views. Nice!

I think it's the stupidest boat ever build, bad design and have any purpose to even why this abomination exist
The boat never did sink!!!!!!!
Click bait.
The tender was the jet ski thing on the back that fell off the captain never even noticed
A sailboat could cruise through that with drinks on the table.
yeah sure...

That clown in the beginning with his gf in the back , don't even know what he doing. I laugh fart lmao. Same time. Good shit ahaha
I see lots of comments saying this boat or that boat is the difference maker. The captain is the difference maker most times.
Haha right after I yelled they need to pick them damn out riggers up you put there down to clear the bridge and I felt stupid 🤣🤣
Next time I go to nude beach I'll definitely check out this dangerous inlet! Cool videos.
@8:45 the Gillagins island theme song pops in my head...
I would never go thru that area with my 2150 Tahoe ...it’s just too much. Even big boats have a hard time going thru there.

I went on Therapy IV - had a great day’s fishing!
That party fishing boat looked like an E-ticket ride.
That captain of the 48 Hatteras was a pro, surfed the wave all the way in 👍.
That Estrella is CRAAAAAAZY BIG for a CC. what an insane boat. I bet it gets great mileage.
The tow boat and the small fishing charter seem to be the only ones who know they are doing.
Get charged $1000 to tow a $2000 dingy lol.
“I thought the boat felt lighter in the stern...”
I'm still wondering what a "tender" is. Oh well, off to Google it, I mean Duckduckgo it. Screw Google! ☹️
Great video!!!...Iam even more sacred of the ocean !😬

Mooooohkay. Get the cops after the jet skis.
Hcb 65. Good captain..
There are three channels now... at least... That literally post the same footage. You guys must be standing right next to each other
this day, because the jetty was closed, all three cameras were about 20 feet apart.
Lets see How many motors i can fit on my boat...5...6..7..8..9..10...whoever has the most outboard motors wins
Saw a big HCB boat cruise through the ft. Lauderdale canal. It was too far out for me to film. Got a 57ft MTI on film though!
nice. let me know when you get that vid posted!
@@ZipZapPower Should be posted tonight. If not tomorrow.
Nice to know the first guy cared about his girl.

Bo Bo lol
I want to see that estrella in person!
I saw it up close at FLIBS, it is massive.
If I ever move to Florida and buy a boat, I'm putting 6 motors on the back of it
I got 5 on my 420 outrage
Great watching people get Pile-drived up in the bow.
0:45 does anyone else think that center consoles are becoming a bit excessive?
That HCB has the worst bang-to-buck ratio ever. It's such a pointless boat
Name a better more versatile platform to build off of though.

Dude on jet ski didnt even offer to help that girl. What a pos, all about him.
No.. probably better he gets on it right away to get her. She was just fine in the lifejacket. Not her first time falling off.
That SeaRay said fucks this I’m headed back home 😂😜
Yatchs look good on dock, but sooo fragile on the sea 🌊🌊🤦♂️🤦♂️
wtvg 15 fut dse
Do you know if the guy came back out to get his tender. It looked like him coming back out when the outrigger was going through.
That edit was not in sequence. do not know.
That Loa 65 rides nice
Yes Sir, very classy design IMO.
nice touch with the chic at the end of the video.
HushNightBatday huh
And she is half naked.... like the "other chicks".....Lol

I wondered why that 36' Hatteras was so close to the jetty! Nothing beats knowledge. Lol!
I'm surprised that Atlanis boat drove sideways over those big waves, seemed like a stupid decision
I love it when they don't make it.makes me sad when they do .could sit out there all day and watch people's boats get flooded
You obviously crashed your boat there
Was it...hard...to get the tender?

That’s a small craft advisory day, even for Haulover that’s ripping.
Seatow looks like a nice retirement job in Florida.. that is if you can get a franchise.
Notice the name of the boat that leaves his tender...Forge ahead!
Tender probably cost as much as the gas he burned that day.
