That boat is loving life out in the gulf. Those 400’s love to run👍🏻💪🏼🔥💯😃.

When money isn’t an object you can do these things. What a dream

let us do the math.... Let us say you buy/trade in an old boat and get 300k for it and use it as a down payment: 1) 300k down 2) 1.2 million purchase 3) 3% interest loan on 900,000k loan (total minus down payment) 4) At a 60 month term (5 years), this is a $16,112 per month payment 5) you have to do 4 trips a month at 4k just to cover the boat COST!!!!!

Yeah i did the math on fuel, with gas prices in cali where i live there and back would be about $8k of fuel. in Alabama this is more like 4-5k but still. Just for gas.

What a trip. Goals right there, to spend almost $10,000 in fuel that’s incredible.

Incredible to say the least! What an experience for a family to have together.. awesome!! 👍🏼💪🏼

That boat saw blue water, green water, fresh water and never skipped a beat. Amazing machine. Epic, epic trip.

Thanks for taking us along!! Hope to make a similar trip in the coming months.

Nice trip. Good way to test the boat endurance.

Fantastic !!! It made me nervous watching you "at speed" in darkness. Glad you didn't hit anything, even with radar on it can be a challenge. What a machine.

Michael Kallelis It's not to unusual to run in the dark offshore. I am not to able now but we did a lot of Fishing and Diving at Night for Flounder around the Liberty Ships here in the northern Gulf. Out of Dauphin Island Al and Orange Beach. Did that for years. Don't recall hitting anything at Night But there are Logs in the Gulf that come down from Mobile Bay - Rivers. Did hit a BIG Turtle one day. Lots of Diving at Night 20 miles out ! Miss it really bad !

Michael is right, you guys are not offshore yet and should not run 48mph with less then a 100 feet of visibility inside of the liberty ship. Although that radar is impressive, and that may be all that is needed to open it up at night. I wouldn’t know, most of us wouldn’t know, most of us would have towed. And that is not a 20 mph head wind at day break, maybe inside the storm it was that was 10 miles to the west.

God bless your family. Nice trip with an incredible boat and engines

Nice to see the Kalergi plan working well!

Bet y’all can’t wait to do something similar with the upcoming Invincible 46 Catamaran!

Very impressive, heard great things about invincible boats

Awesome!!! What a great boat!!

Impressive ride and a great testament for the invincible Thanks for sharing. Your grander videos are always informative, no matter which boat you're highlighting. If I get the opportunity to go bigger on the boat I will be giving you a call.

That was bad ass! Great boat!

Badass!! Awesome video

Amazing feat and amazing video!! Kudos to you!!

Epic trip thanks for sharing.

Wow I have been out of the online boating forums loop. Invincible and Sea Hunter making big cats and Chris Bazor the Fountain and Nor-Tech king is rocking a big cat. Dayum...

Awesome boat, cool family trip.

Incredible trip and incredible video! I’ll be moving to Saint Pete beach Florida soon and I’ve been curious about going to the Bahamas by water from Tampa and you did it from Alabama! So awesome 👍 I’ll be sure to look into Invincible cats when it’s time to get a boat!

Amazing boat, i love it ! 👍❤😎

We did the same trip from OBA to ALbacos back in 2018. But we were on a 33 Grady express and made a few stops along the way. Cut through Lake Okeechobee to West Palm. Definitely a bucket list trip! We stayed in Treasure Cay and Marsh Harbor.

Great video, man you guys where booking !!!

That’s amazing plz pick me up next time it’s also my dream to make that run over. I’ll cover food and drinks on the island

BTW, Im here from the Haulover Inlet video, this boat is hands down better than anything Ive ever seen mph to mph! The Haulover vids are great advertisement for you, I watch them to make hull purchase decisions.

Love it!

Well that's awesome!!!

And the baby stayed on the bow platform from FL to the Bahamas? Velcro?? Really enjoyed the video! Thanks!

Awesome!

Digged the video and your music taste is spot on :D

Awesome video. Did you gain or lose time cutting though Lake O?

Best vid, amazing bpat

Amazing

wow cool boat trip

I spend a good deal of time in Orange Beach (boat at Sportsman's) and I think that is your place on canal near Bear Point. I have thought of doing a version of this trip to Islamorada in my Everglades but breaking it into two days. We are heading out next Friday for a week. Overall getting the weather right is key especially since I don't have a cat hull. Very interesting to see the 0.8 consumption with quads. My buddy's 36' Yellowfin with 350 trips gets about 0.7.

now thats my idea of a good time, awesome! No go from Miami to PR to USVI to down Island

Nice trip and nice boat, how does the cat handle the chop compared to a V hull ? Great video.

Great run! Curious to hear how the catamaran handled when you encountered rough seas and wind on way to keys?

2,393 GALLONS TOTAL!!! DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!! Math: At $3.00 a gallon that is $7,179 in GAS!

You were lucky to visit that part of the Bahamas before Dorian tore it up. It will never recover to what it used to be like in my life time.

great vid,what compass you running there thanks

Were there any crab traps near shore? Really afraid to go over them at night!

4th time watching this video... so inspiring

that looks super fun! #lifegoals

Goals af man....

This is my dream boat. island hoping in the bahamas.

nice boat

I’m tired just watching this hahaha. Great boat but man you guys were pushing it

I’m surprised you are running on plane at night. I’m out of Texas but every time I’m out in the gulf I’ve come across pretty significant debris that I’d want to a avoid. Any thoughts on that risk?

God bless your boat and family, I wish I can do the same..

Bad ass!

For the trip back did you cut through water ways in the middle of the state? @5:51 it shows two routes, which did you go? thanks

Wish I was on that trip.

How much faster is this boat with 450 Mer racing engines?

That’s one way to break in the engines

does the boat have Autopilot and did you use it on this trip?

Still not a Class 8 Truck yet but darn close!

What a trip!! Is that the only boat on the market that could make that trip and do it safely

Whoa! How was the wind fatigue?

sweet run! 169 comment showing ,meaning number 170 ck, max 800 miles range ferry/fast cargo/emergence storm surge range run, ck!

Great run! thanks for posting. Quick question, do those motors have a run-in period or can you just go hard straight out of the box (which you seemed to do). Also, did you need to check oil each time you set off? Just curious really as most motors have a heavier run-in oil (plus metal particles). Maybe these are run-in at factory?

nailed w

16 hours in a boat, 14 hours in a nice plush car is too much haha good job

boat holds 800 gallons? But you burned 863.6 Took on gas in Largo? Yeah now wild about bladders, always worried they will split a seam. I saw a guy run to the Bahamas with a bladder and it was jumping all around the deck in rough water. You ran on my Birthday JULY 20 the day Mel Fisher found his treasure. Born in Key West.

How did you go to the bathroom all that time?

How many rod holder?

With that kind of money spent I would have gone all the way and toured a lot of the Bahamas besides just one island.

That boat is awesome, and Chris knows his boats, but as good as that Cat rides, I bet you are still exhausted after 14 hours at 40+ in the open water

I'm not going to be the one that wonders about BillyBob sitting on the back of the boat w/o a PFD on. Of course, that'd be the least of his concerns after skipping acoss the water at 50 mph.

Have you tried Freeman boatworks

Mercury #1 on the water.

What is the brand of the boat sir??? Very impressive!!!!!!!!

That's f u money right there

Also, Im sure you are running at max efficiency at about 60 mph, for the Bermuda race could you make it with a bladder averaging 70 if sea conditions permitted? LMK if you need crew!!

Y’all spent more in gas then I have in my rig 😂😂😂

He hopes to do it again! Good god...

The baby 👶 👑

You dont know another vessel you could that in? How about the one vessel that all of these "new" cats are modeled off of? I don't believe i need to name the manufacturer. Overall, impressive trip and i am sure a bucket list item to accomplish.

What was your average cruise speed on the watter? How much total fuel was used?
