Wildest entrance into a bay ever 🇸🇻 #sailing #lola #waves

[DonAshcraft]

It's pretty wild when a sailboat surfs down the back side of a wave and exceeds its designed hull speed and starts to plane up and wiggle side to side! I've only done it once, but I'll never forget it.

Yess, post more boat life! I love to see it and your music is the best.

Damn .. my heart would have been in my mouth..!! 😳😳🤯🫣🫣🙏🙏

Amazing I’ll be sailing the world soon. Baddass

[swainscheps]

Woooowwww I can’t believe that boat slowly and gently lifted up over that ~2 foot swell!!! That guy was so close to death!!!

[bobtrenholm]

I rode a few big waves in a 37ft power boat. Speed before being carried was 19kts. Reached 24 surfing the waves.

That's the worst. As a Kid, I built a 7-foot boat and launched it from the beach. You had to messure your timing. Between swells and when coming in, you always watch your back and run perpendicular to the patterns. Only got swamped once.😂❤

Well Done Captain.

I'd probably have closed that hatch forward, but it's not a big deal.

Virgin Gorda has a entrance where waves come the side. Can be narly at certain times of the year

[jerrymatzen]

Try comming into the Columbia Bar entrance sometime .😮😅😅😅😅😅

Same here... Entering Naples Florida Bay I surfed through wave after wave in a fairly narrow pass.. ( a severe squall had just passed) and it was very intense!... Believe me I know the feeling 😊

If you ever get on racing boat, you’ll realize that one can sail, not using power, and ride waves for a long long way. Of course, different kind of boat different kind of sailing.

[tobicat]

I would suggest closing all hatches and companionway prior to attempting ANY type of possibly rough passages. And yes, I learned the hard way.

[champnomnom]

It always look less intense on camera than it realy is.

This happened to me and my dad entering an inlet in our 48’.
High pucker factor. 😂

Nice job. We are moving on our boat fir the first time in march...

[greggo]

Yall have to point out the wild part cause i aint yet been able to see it.

[blackmax]

The problem with most sailing boats is the rudder is not designed properly. The mighty Nordica never struggles.
