The guy running the center console is a crappy Captain who has a lot of luck working for him in that short clip. Poor guy in the bow.

No kidding Walter!! How did he get in that situation? Was he having power problems? He missed a couple of opportunities to extract himself from the waves. I wonder if he wound up on the beach?? It looks like one of those California life guard boats you occasionally see in newsclips. I don't think that it is a Bertram.

The poor guy in the front trusted his buddy to drive the boat. I like the part when his feet fly up in the air, hope he wasn't hurt badly, because I know he was at the very lest hurt. Wow that painful just watch'in.

I wonder if he pony'ed up for his half of the fuel? or did the medics meet them back at the launch?

That Yellow boat is a 29' Crystaliner The harbor patrol & lifeguard dept use them & Seaway's.

Every time I see that video and there is another one like it. I have to look real close. I know its a friend of my brother.

Boat getting bashed looks like a ROBALO ... I owned one years ago, originals were Whaler type sandwiched foam on a modified V hull designed by Ray Hunt. Mine was a great boat ... this guy is just in the wrong place at wrong time.

I second Ironmans thoughts on the boat, I read an article in the National Fisherman about the guy who made them for the California Beach Patrol, you saw them on Baywatch as well. I thought I read the builder passed on from cancer..pretty boat..looks alot like the Bahia Mar.

brew...my big trick when i was 14 was to run the boat straight at the beach just like that. then while the passengers ( usually 13 year old girls) screamed and wet their pants i would casually stroll to the stern ,kill the engine(rude 40) and lift it up and glide up on the beach. while trying to impress a particularly attractive young lady i waited a hair too long and sheared the cotter pin.......................thus stranding us on the most remote island i knew about ............and eventually involving her dad, the marine patrol and the coast guard....but i prefer to forget that part. the guy in the video probably got off easier.

That's better than the old I'm out of gas trick.
