The three teen/pre-teen boys out and about in the, what -- 12 foot aluminum skiff with the 50 hp Merc -- probably had better water sense than most of the dudes in their high-powered glossy fiberglass sleds.

Thank you. I wasn't sure what the issue was there.

Another amazing video. The high shot at the end was great. Thank you guys.

I like the aircraft shots. That was cool.

I cannot believe the stupidity of some of these boaters with too many people on board.

EXCELLENT !

9:45 Quint and the boys headed out for some sharkin’ 🦈

I often wonder what purpose some of these boats were designed for, apart from being money pits.

I am thinking about getting into boating. Ia the midnight express, knowing there are many configurations, worth it? Is appreciate any thoughts.

my dream would be to have a Midnight Express on Lake Texoma.

Many of them are rentals.

The guy in the Skater was out for the first time based on that engine trim and speed.

2:02 look where he is staring at. :)))

Does anyone know what the trim switches do??

Not much, they began next to Cigarette and Formula and Magnum in Miami's Thunder Row, but went bankrupt. A company in North Carolina (I think NC) bought everything (molds to tech and plans) and set up shop there last year producing old and new bigger sizes. @ne

​@BoatZone ...a rich history and tradition reaching into N. Miami Bchs. (now Aventura's) Thunderboat Row). There were a lot of caveats involved in Pantera's diminished capacity, including disillusionment in powerboats and a very distressed attendant market, personal finance reduction in high end disposable income for performance boats, anemic sales within Pantera and the generic boating community, COVID-19, the City of Aventura, and yada, yada, yada...

3:51 absolute worst hull design I've ever seen on a small boat. Every single one of these always stuff themselves.

not the wrong design, the wrong use. The boat is built for lakes and rivers with a wave height of max. 1 foot. Buy the right boat and not the cheapest one

You mean the three relief cuts? They allow turbulence (air bubbles) to "lubricate" between the hull and water for more speed. The hull sticks to the water without them and "frees up" with them. That teck came about around the mid eighties I think, but took a while to get more mainstream in the last ten years.

@bailey9r thanks for your reply. The object I am asking about is black, circular, and closer to the bow than the relief cuts.

Did the passengers have life jackets on?

What is the deal with people stuffing tiny boats full of so many people that its standing room only? Its not safe but more importantly, it can't be any fun standing like a bunch of sardines on a tiny boat for 4 hours. I learned a long time ago that I don't want to be on any boat in Florida which doesn't have aircon. Too hot and humid otherwise.
