I recently purchased a boat that has trim tabs. leveling out the boat side to side was explained but this is the first I have heard about using it to control bow bouncing. Thanks for the tip!

What I love about GFT is there is never an inch of condescension towards those of us that don't know much about boats or fishing, just plain spoken educated information that is easy to understand. :-)

As a child, I enjoyed books with pictures to go along with the story being told, the story would have been the same without the visuals. But with that said, i still very much appreciated the visual stimulation. 😝

You don't drive a boat you run it. I started on my dads fishing when I was 12 years old. Single screw. . Don't forget to show them what happens when someone fall over board. I used to throw a life jacket over and told them to pick me. Most almost always turned up wind. After the boat drifted over the jacked they started to over it. they seem to under stand why you don't come alone side on up wind ward side. I am 85 now and admire you young people teaching the new one. I ran and crewed on boats from 20ft. up 85 ft. power boats. Sail boats from 24ft. to 76 ft. Trans pak.Wish you well. Gman

When I was in the Navy- a long time ago, and as someone who worked below the waterline, I came up with this mnemonic trick to remember port & starboard. The size of the words. Red, left, port. (Smaller words.) Green, right, starboard. (Larger words.) Thanks for making all these awesome videos Ladies! 🙏🏽

I respect these girls for doing their thing without targeting desperate incels or teenage boys. I've never liked those FL girls that have a youtube channel that's just them reeling in a fish in a thong. And of course, most of them are going out on charters. They have no skills and couldn't catch anything on their own. The GFT's are gorgeous girls. They could make every video in skimpy bikinis bending over the rail the whole time and their channel would instantly get far more views,,,but they dont. And I respect that. Especially when you consider what the majority of girls in their age range are like nowadays. If these girls blow up(and I think they will). They will have earned it. 🐠👍

The two of you are so good at your explanations and actually teach us all something every time we watch. Thanks for the girls on the water, we all are pushing forward to get our respect with all of those good old boys, in service, marinas, etc which are not very helpful with new boat owners or info in general. What a refreshing approach you give us all, thanks so much.

I am enjoying catching up on watching your videos. You two ladies are inspirational figures to any new boater and also to experienced boaters who do not fish using tactics that are not common to their home waters. This was a very well done basics instructional. One thing that was funny to me being an older viewer was when you said something similar to “You start the motor just by turning the key, no pushing a button like on a newer car”. My family used to own a 1943 Ford pickup and you started it by pushing the starter button. 🥂

Back to boating after a 40 year hiatus. Trying to absorb all the info I can. You young ladies are great, very informative, knowledgeable and keeping it simple for us old newbies! Great stuff! Out 7 times in the past two months on my new Carolina Skiff 17 LS with 90 hp Suzuki. I'm learning a lot from videos and experience. Best advice yet: "Don't go any faster than you want to hit the dock!" LOL.

I've just got my first boat. A 31ft center console equipped with twin 225 white Mercury's. I lost my lower engine parts costing me around $3K maintenance due to driving in shallow water without trimming up my engines. Simple mistake I could've avoided learning the basics before driving my new boat. Essential information! Thank for the great video ladies!

Great video. I learned something today. I grew up around boats but just bought my first one last summer. Your comments about the draft of the boat got me thinking, I should look mine up. I was always taught, raise the drive when you start kicking up mud. Knowing actually measurements seems safer 🤣. Thanks!
