That boats got some good authority on the steering, the jolly roger they are flying is earned. :P

dynamic stability is a thing.
pricklygooch
Might want to set the jib, buddy. It’ll push your bow forward instead of going sideways in the wave. Set other stuff to get away from shore

Flying the Jolly Roger, with deckhands wearing bikinis... dont seem prepared for big weather.

Disappointing

Love that movie
Arckeiner
Yeah. "The" movie. With the guy on a boat. So well known that putting the title in your comment is prepostereous.
STGxDante
Captain Ron the movie staring temporary tattoos and a glass eye.
Arckeiner
thanks! :)
oprahslovechild
Well it’s a Pirate ship, they’re hardened by that sort of thing.
profiledit
That boat is going to capsize bra
procrastinatingagain
No one is wearing a lifejacket.
snoozer
They have a pirate flag. If they sink this boat, they’ll just have to download a new one.
Mydogismybestman
Drowning is a hoax. Only lib pussies wear lifejackets.
voydkastor
If it's not a consensual drowning the body has ways of fighting it.
OnlyPositiveFavourites
Even when used as a joke, this line makes me shakey with anger (I'm not saying stop using it, just it's an amazingly fucked up thought)
Mydogismybestman
Absolutely.
voydkastor
I fully agree 100%.

anybody else notice something strange in the water? https://imgur.com/5hXRE1o

A body boarder. This was in Waikiki, one of the most popular surf spots in the world.

Looks like it might need about $3.50

Bingo. The name for the harbor is wrong but it’s def that break.

Tento2
took that wave like a pro, stern on.
squintish
Aren't they supposed to face into the wave? Bow first? And does it seem like the boat is pretty crowded?
Zyrixion
Well, more or less, but specifically you want to be perpendicular to the wave. You don't want to take the wave to the side of the boat.
ToasterDent
Just like your mom! (sorry not sorry)
Tento2
that's what she said?

Nobody on board looks concerned?
MadamPuddifoot
Nah there's one girl holding onto a post for dear life. Far right after the first wave.
pb1kenobi
Not too likely. A three ton boat with two of those tons below the waterline. A more difficult prospect than one might think.
LurkerOfDarkness
Depends a lot more on angles of attack, bow into wave is best, stern 2nd best, port/starboard is worst.
NOINOON
More like 13 tons. :) She's a thicc babe.
pb1kenobi
Now that you mention it, I think you are right. As I look at it, it looks like it would dwarf my friend sailboat.
Arrofancy
Yeah my 30footer is a hefty gal and she's 4,5 tons.
cookiedough132
Nothing says “I know what I’m doing” like flying a pirate flag ?
linearcore
mksu
My (admittedly limited) understanding is that larger sailboats are damn near impossible to capsize.
NOINOON
It needs a sharp wave from behind which turns the boat sideways and then rolls it over.
localsurfer
Not in surf like that. He was very close to broaching.
NOINOON
Mate this was a textbook broach. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broach_(nautical)
localsurfer
True, but I tend not to think of it as a broach unless the beam end are touching thé water...
localsurfer
Actually, reading the wiki, it says a broach is when the rudder comes out of the water. I don't think they quite got that far over.
localsurfer
Lol, arguing with myself here. You're right, watching again the rudder came out when they pitched down, and off they go.
DasMutt
They can get swamped and demasted, though. Stàys/shrouds, shackles, attachment points can break.
Exyr
Yeah they are hard to tip they have like 12 tonne keels. Not impossible tho
sydneygirl
looks like those tourist boats off Waikiki. They just go out for a 3 hour tour, a three hour tour....
inalak
Yep. Ala Wai harbor. https://ftw.usatoday.com/2019/07/charter-boat-barely-avoids-disaster-in-heavy-surf/amp
esparadrapo
IS THIS CAPSIZE OR AM I WRONG?
DraxCleveland
BOth
Exyr
Why is it that close to shore? The keel on that is probably like 12 feet deep
Celtoloco
was my thought
RhinoNaut
Looks like they beach it right at the end.
R100GSPD
Around :38 the camera pans past what looks like a channel marker, he's probably heading into a marina.
Exyr
Yeah I saw the 5. Ballsy to to maneuver that.
NotDiamond3000
Has a pirate flag! Trust the shenanigans
TheRealFireFrenzy
looks like there was a list of bad choices and the captain just went "well might as well take the direct route"
MasterMookie
This might just be the beginning of a storm. Better risk it then a guaranteed shipwreck
DeviousWay
Channel marker, he’s in a river bar.
blondasaurusrex
That’s Ala Moana Harbor channel during the biggest swell of 2019. The water is deep enough for large vessels but the swell was fuckin huge
PrisonMikeBiaatch
From someone who has no idea about sailing.. what is a keel? I have been on some motor boats in wicked waves but never heard that.
Provideniya
"Keel" others here refer to is specific feature on this kind of boats. "Keel" in general is the spine of the ship, on the bottom of the hull
DubhIainn
Like others said, its a lower fin, often weighted. It works opposition to the forces on the sail, to keep the boat steady.
BaconCandy000
Like what the guy said it helps guide the boat who uses a sail, it also help keep the boat from capsizing when under sail.
donkeymoney
It's like that tv show, "Keele and Pey".
Zorrodidnothingwrong
It's a fin-like thing under the boat that helps stabilizing it.

NCPBullet
And miss out on having a discussion? Ok lonely boi
NOINOON
Ah, a "discussion about what a 1000 year old invention is", in 140 character bits or less. Come the fuck on...
NCPBullet
Good talk
BananaSlalom
Imagine a shark fin, but on the bottom of the boat and really long. Lets the ship sail more directly towards the wind
Edmian
It allows it to sail period. Without it you would just blow with the wind
PrisonMikeBiaatch
So it helps keep the balance?
CalmDownNow
Without a keel, a boat with a mast would capsize very easily. Direction stability is a benefit and allows for cross wind sailing etc
BananaSlalom
It helps direct the force and keep the boat from capsizing, with a well rigged sail and deep keel you can sail like 45° into the wind
abglue89
Oh yeah, normally filled with lead or concrete. Its amazing watching how far they lean in rough seas. Ive boarded a few at sea. Scary fun.
PrisonMikeBiaatch
Learned something new. Thanks everyone!
CalmDownNow
It is essentially a counter weight for the mast.
BigBadBillyBoy
Probably more like 4-6’
NCPBullet
Double mast? I say more than six
BigBadBillyBoy
Not likely. That’s just a 50’-ish ketch. If it’s a bluewater cruiser it might be 8, but that’s a rare example if it is.
NCPBullet
Well I learned something today
DirtyImmaturePottymouthedSmartass
Get everyone below, and motor INTO to chop. Jeez.
siler7
INTO to
localsurfer
Too late, he'd broach. Put the bow into the back of a wave, just after it passes, and full power straight in.
NOINOON
I wonder if the skipper tried to follow the 5 mph speed limit.
tbomber
If theres a risk of capsizing you dont want people below.
NOINOON
Absolutely do unless everyone is wearing life vests and are strapped in a life line.
DasMutt
Much better to have them topsides w/o PFDs, because getting swept overboard and bodysurfing their way to the beach would be hella cool! /s
tbomber
Not as cool as a dozen disoriented people in an enclosed space on a sinking vessel,with one small means of egress.
DasMutt
She was in no danger of foundering, but her pax were in *great* danger during his maneuvering for the channel. Capt failed his pax by >
DasMutt
not ensuring PFDs were donned prior to beginning manoeuvers. Failing that, they should've been stashed below. USCG Capt 101 stuff.
