Baker's Haulover Inlet is a man-made channel in Miami-Dade County, Florida. It connects the northern end of Biscayne Bay with the Atlantic Ocean. The inlet was cut in 1925 through a narrow point in the sand between the cities of Bal Harbour and Sunny Isles.

The inlet entrance channel is 400 feet wide and 14 feet deep. It's dangerous to navigate because it features:
Sandbars
Rock walls
Strong tide currents
Gusty onshore winds

There is no speed limit at Haulover Inlet.

Idiots. Not one person wearing a life jacket . They don't know how fast you go under for good without a flotation device.

Don't bother to latch that front locker down on the first boat. lol Maybe it was the locker for the life jackets, not that they would figure that out, though they are invincible and don't need them. LOL, Captain should have said something, or at least put the bow in the water and thrown the life jackets to them. Always good to have a man overboard drill.

I’m guessing if princess yachts could see this video, they would probably say this is not what this particular yacht is designed for 🛥️🛥️🛥️🛥️👌👌👌

It's funny that people seem to think that the slower they go the better it will be. Then they hit a resonance that maximizes their pitching as the boat swings like a pendulum. A bit more speed and the dynamics of the hull will pitch the bow up onto the hump and keep it there. For the brave, there's all ways bouncing out over the peaks.

Ive seen pontoon boats make it out smoother than the first yacht. Damn

Funny how what is considered rough at Haulover is basically a hair above flat calm. 5:54 in the background an actual sports fisherman demonstrates how TAME Haulover is in real time! 😂

Amazing to finally see someone who knows how to handle their boat and the conditions and can keep their family dry and safe (the yellowfin at 6:30 )

My favorite videos are the ones where you capture the big boats beating through the waves

Ya gotta love that old school boat Skipperin' from Therapy IV at the end. Sure looks from here like a deft touch at the helm and great water read, that's how it's done y'all. :-)

I wish some of the other boat channels like this would give us neat facts too.

Even a 50-ton yacht is nothing but a toy boat, out on the ocean!

watching this video in HDR makes a big difference :face-blue-smiling:

Ah, the salty old sea dog! God, I think that dog has better sea legs and knowledge and experience of the inlet than most of the boaters there. Stay safe little buddy, your dad is a pro and will look after you😉

Yellow fin captain....smart move staying close to the jetty. Pro Line made a great return. I'd take the Pursuit since I owned a 25 ft in 1985. Great ocean boat. But a Grady White is my go to if I could afford either boat now.
