Haulover Inlet

I came across this video on youtube, check out the first boat shown. Is it anyone on the forum??

Wow. Those are some crazy waves on the inlet. That is a nice Rinker. It looks like a 310 or 340.

Boat at 5:39 was clearly out of control...driver was knocked down...wow.

Also really shows you which kinds of boats are made to handle big water. That first Rinker was thrown all over the place.

The Rinker would have been better suited maintaining a straight course and speed. He tried to take them at an angle and it tossed the boat side to side more. Plus, a cruiser has a lot higher center of gravity than those center counsels.

Gotta give it some more power... if that rinker had a competent captain (and was at somewhere around 50% to on plane) it would have eaten those waves and asked for more.. and the fenders were super tiny on that rinker.. I do love the wakeboard middle age crisis guy realizing his boat was meant for lakes and turning around after getting thrown to the floor. That's a boat that only tools from miami buy..

I agree you need power thru
on the Great Lakes rollers people find out real quick if boat is underpowered lol

Rinker looks like a 330 or 360

WoW! He didn't see that! I'm sure the front of the boat is all banged up!

Look how hard the little girl gets banged around on the bow as she's holding on for dear life!

check out Sebastian inlet.....this has nothing on that inlet.

skennelly · June 2017

Nevermind the boat damage by the ancher..what about it flying into the boat had to come close to hitting one of the kids

skennelly · June 2017

Can't find any good videos in Sabastian inlet. All of them seem rather tame

rasbury · June 2017

Yes, me either. We were over there Las summer watching a coast guard boat going out and I thought they were going to die. It's a very narrow man made inlet and the water really gets ripping through there and at least that day made haul hover look like a pond!

Shame on the captain for letting him be up on the bow! I wouldn't be surprised if he lost all of his front teeth!!!!! It looked like he was knocked out also, If he slid off into the water.......
