Sorry - let me re-caption.. "Captain stupid enough or unqualified enough to sink his own boat based on what he saw people do on TV."

It all boils down to the most common and important principle of being out on the water : understand your boat, what it is capable of, and how to handle it. If you don't do that, you are putting your and (worse still) all your passenger's, lives at risk.

Yeah - "the captain fell as he was backing down"... like I believe that for a second. Just like the other doorknob in one of the other videos posted a while back whose boat flipped over "because of a rogue wave thrown by someone else's wake" (ignoring the fact that he had 20+ people on a 30' boat, on deck or on the flybridge, and was operating at an excessive speed). Every jackass tries to find someone else to blame.

Just shoot both buggers and make the waters safer for the rest of us.

Any with the price of fuel, I should eat steak lobster and drink fine wine at a high end restaurant rather than take the boat out to fish.

Oh, we'll I guess the rest of the cost is allocated to fun.
