    This is one of my favorite boat vids of all time. These guys were filming some surf comp and the engine kept stalling. They drifted into the breakers and, well, you'll see. Pay close attention to the guy on the bow at the end...EPIC

    Knock on wood I haven't like this, but I've been dead in the water over 100 miles out. Had to be towed in by another boat, took over 20 hours through sloppy seas.

    The boat in the vid is an 80's Robalo with mid 90's Yamaha outboard FYI. Robalo made some badass boats back then, now they cut production costs and cheaped out on a lot of things.
