She leftthat guy in the dust lol. Without him telling her how to drive it, she's in south america by now

...or training or skill. Most boaters don't know maritime rules, right-of-way, channel markers or the like. Which can be reaaaaallly frustrating, not to mention dangerous.

Never put a dumb broad on a boat alone!

Watercraft are a lot like having kids. Any idiot can do it, but most fail.

Bring some brewskis and hot wings to the ramp and enjoy the show 🤪

😆 🤣 😂

You ARE, watching the Nat Geo of Boaters. 😂🤪😜

Same routine with me and my daddy

Excellent! You get a brownie button

Which probably helps no one

@@patriot1303 it certainly helps the state collect more money from us pesky citizens.

All that mandatory rules/laws bullchit in the north/northeast and west coast doesn't do a damn thing to help anyone except the governments...

Towel on the seat

Towel on the seats dude, relax a bit it bastrds car, they got money to play out at sea and have a jetski, they can replace the car..

I dont enjoy his videos

@@cherylhamilton4936 - he is exaggerating a lot

Who gives a fuck

Same here. I spend part of the year in Florida, luckily its the Keys and the locals are experienced boaters ... for the most part.

@@crisrobinson4146 I'm looking to do the same. Spend part of the year in the Keys. Where do you boat out of? I was looking at Key Largo.

You are correct, vehicles in line at the ramp have the right of way not boats in the water, but the commentator is not even aware of this

I have found that in most conditions, securing a mid-ship line is most effective as you can use it as a spring line. Next most effective is a bow line that can also be used as a spring line if there is sufficient room at the dock and sufficient slack in the line is provided.

@@timkenyon6088 YES!!! The Spring line, unknown in Florida!! Have a line from the mid cleat that is about even with your stern, slip it on the dock as you move forward...if you keep power on, you will stay on the dock until you run out of fuel!!

Get a copy of " Chapmans". It explains the proper use of spring lines. Also, use the motor to stop, not a dock line.

Yes, but apparently spring lines and stern lines are illegal in FL.

@@Chris-fo8wp you guys realize that what you see on this channel is a tiny percentage of Florida boaters edited down for entertainment value. Much like planes that land safely don’t make it on the news. Boaters going about their day without incident don’t make it on this channel the vast majority of the boating public here in Florida are capable and experienced after all we use our boats 12 months out of the year. The fact that you think you can judge every boater in the whole state based on a couple of minutes of video is pretty silly

Yea it added another 350 lbs to pull up the ramp😳

But, as I said above, that means in the mornings and in the evenings you'll have lines for some ramps while others are going unused.

@@peterbretherton3546 i the am you have more ins / evens then switch it up in the eve ..electronic numbers would work best but physically changing them isnt too big a deal for the dock hand .

@@derekcrook3723 I guess I'd be in favor of separate docks for people who can't figure out whose turn it is. I'll go to the ones where people can figure things out.

Am all in except for last dock ..pm all out except for last dock .

She’s likely used to him pulling out before the “launch”.

Yes. Almost everywhere in the civilized world, people drop off their driver, back away from the ramp, then drive onto the trailer once it's in the water. Tying off at a busy launch ramp with multiple passengers aboard is sociopathic. There's a reason these videos are shot exclusively at ramps where people regularly tie off: it's backwards, illogical, chaotic, time-consuming and leads to frequent confrontations. The province of rookies and kooks.

Yes there is clearly established protocol, vehicles with trailers have the right-of-way and not boats in the water. And never tie off to a boat ramp dock unless your boat was towed in.

If you’re boating solo that’s the only way

As insane as that is, that's exactly how they do it at this facility. Unless you're solo, tying to a launch ramp dock is completely unnecessary - it's rude, inconsiderate and wastes everyone's time. I can't believe people put up with this nonsense, they sure as hell don't anywhere I've ever launched. Spend more than a few minutes on the ramp, you'll be getting plenty of grief, try tying off and anything could happen, none of it good.

Unless you're solo, nobody needs lines at the launch ramp. Drop off, back away, drive on. Boat never even needs to touch the dock.

It’s tires were spinning that’s why it didn’t move. You can hear him floor it and the tires spin the second time as well.

@@Cerus98 It wasn't moving even tho he gassed it enough to spin the tires because the parking brake was on. Pay attention to it and you'll notice that the back of the car squats while he's giving it gas and it rises again when he lets off. That's how I know the brake was on. The second time the brake was off so it went up the ramp easily without any tire spin.

It was me. Made a mistake by pulling too far down. The ramp is slick and it started to spin the tires. Too deep and too heavy. When she got off I was able to pull forward a bit and fixed it. All good. Mistakes happen.

@@timheron8716 The ski was floating so her weight had no impact on your ability to pull up the ramp. It's obvious from watching that the parking brake was set, but you might not have noticed at the time. That car looks new enough that it might have an electronic parking brake and they're sometimes confusing.

Sir, you can literally see my front tires spin. Parking brake was never on.

So no solo boating in Ohio then? How would you get your truck and trailer if you can't tie up your boat at the dock?

Or learn to balance the trailer load properly, there’s no reason you should need a 4x4 on a concrete ramp almost every time I see a truck lose traction in one of these videos I noticed that the back of the boat is hanging off the bunks meaning there is not enough tongue weight on the trailer that’s why it breaks traction Think of the axles as a fulcrum and the trailer is a lever with too much weight aft it’s actually lifting up the rear wheels of the truck reducing traction

@@johnbumpus7138 I disagree. 4x4 can be necessary, based on ramp conditions, tides, size/weight of boat & trailer etc. An underpowered rear wheel drive truck is overmatched quite often. We have a 25’ cabin cruiser. With boat, trailer, fuel, water, provisions etc we are nearing 10K pounds. Add a steep, wet ramp or one covered in slime, mud, sand, seaweed etc and a low tide and you better have a truck that’s up to the task. We purchased a 3/4 ton diesel 4x4 and I use 4x in low constantly to retrieve. Never got stuck once.

@@malekodesouza7255 if it’s necessary for you that’s fine. I have a 24’9” LOA Grady White sailfish with twin Evinrude 225s it’s a walk around fishing boat with a small cabin and a half tower , and 150 gallon fuel tank. It’s pretty heavy. I live in South Florida we don’t get ice and snow so I have a 2 Wheel drive GMC Sierra 2500 I am based out of Boynton Beach but i’ve taken it as far north as new Smyrna Beach and as far south as big pine key I only use public concrete boat ramps and because I took the time to set up my trailer and towing rig correctly I also never have a problem. If the ramp is so slimy that it makes rear wheels break traction wouldn’t it also make the front wheels break traction? If you’re in a production four-wheel-drive you’re not really getting power to the ground on all four wheels anyway unless you have lockers I’ve also pulled a 36 foot Scarab triple axle with no issues But like I said everybody is different and if you need four-wheel-drive that’s fine I just think that it’s not a necessity if people would set their towing rigs up correctly and learn a little bit about the physics of towing a load other than that one of the biggest problems I see is that people back their trailer way too far in even at low tide you should never have the rear wheels of your tow vehicle in the water also most of the weight should be forward the front wheels of the trailer this will solve most problems with traction and also swaying while going down the road if you feel more comfortable with four-wheel-drive and don’t mind the extra expense that’s fine It’s just not a necessity for most boats small enough to trailer

@@malekodesouza7255 maybe you are not aware but big rigs like freightliners Kenworth Peterbilt and so forth only have rear wheel drive and they generally pull trailers much heavier than any pleasure boat and are capable of doing it up inclines much deeper than boat ramps (like loading docks) They manage to do it with rear wheel drive only but if 4x4 makes people feel more comfortable at the boat ramp I won’t complain as long as it gets them out of my way faster 👌

@@johnbumpus7138 You spent a lot of time telling him you're not complaining.

Just say no to boat licenses.

Nah some people just shouldn't have kids

Unlimited apparently.

@@signoresantinoburnett1169 that’s why he backed the trailer so far back; ski needed lots of draft with a cargo like that!
