We learned a lesson during this trip! STAY in the boating channels when you don't know the water... To see the boat tour of the marina, click here • Boat Yard Tour
You can't blame that on the bananas, the blame goes to the captain's inability to follow instructions. Thanks for the video , I'm sure it will help a lot of people

Checking for water should have been the fist thing you did

I gotta say. Many people would be ashamed and would not put this on YT. It shows how big of a man you are by showing others to not make the same mistakes you did. In so doing, you showed the kindness of the folks on the water.

I'm a boater from Georgian Bay in Canada. It's renowned for shoals. The first thing we get taught is, if you don't know the water, stay in the channel. There are alot of ships and boats at the bottom of that bay. So now my rule to myself anywhere is if there's a channel marked, it's usually there for a reason. Use it.

Not sure why you would leave the channel unless you have local knowledge of the area!

One thing I’ve learned being on the water all my life is you never ever get in the water and check the Props while the motors are running!

That's why you should always carry a small kicker motor a small 5- 10 hp engine just to get you in if something happens to your main motor.Always follow your channel markers and keep an eye on your depth finder.

This is a fascinating series. I moved to Florida last year and the waterways, canals, dams, and locks have fascinated me. I have been watching this series backwards working my way back from the end of your trip. You guys are knowledgeable and very easy going. Thanks for providing this adventure.

I've flown a small helicopter down to Key West twice. There are boat skid marks everywhere on the seafloor.

Interesting video, even in a bass boat I've learned to STAY IN THE CHANNEL.

Since I am SURE this came up at some point during this fiasco...I have to ask: Where were your charts, your DEPTH FINDER and nautical sense to not short-cut channel marker buoys? (I'm not going to ask about those missing fenders at

Glad yall are ok Marty! and yes that is THE Roland Martin that had his own fishing TV show and fished with the bass masters. That is his marina, I have been there before but it was years ago.

All things considering, just a bent prop, on a lake, is lucky. Thank you for sharing this experience.

WOW after reading many of the comments below I am very thankful that I chose my hobby in Aviation rather than boating! I never knew there could be so many grumpy old men just looking for a chance to jump on someone else. Nothing was gained by the sourpuss "boaters", (their Piss-Poor attitude keeps me from calling them "Professional Yachtsmen") who felt this was their moment in life to dump all of their own failings in life all over these two men. None of the vomiting that was seen in the comments was valuable. In aviation when a mistake happens the outcomes are NOT pretty. However, when a newbie pilot makes a simple mistake and lives to fly another day the rest of us do not vomit all over him/her. We know that could have been any of us and we all encourage additional training and check-rides to improve a persons skill set. But just like boating, you learn something new with every flight / cruise!! Thank you for your videos as it helps a non-mariner like me to enjoy learning about another dynamic way of life on this earth. Keep enjoying your boating adventures but most importantly continue to get additional training and learn from each adventure (good/bad) ! Life is too short to listen to grumpy old men with piss-poor attitudes whose wife and children left them years ago due to their attitudes and actions!!
