Whoa.  Dont crash.....


They really should give the sail boats more room.

That looks like an impending close encounter

Interesting find and capture DA.    Too close for comfort I'd say.  He did seem to brush right up against that buoy before he made that hair pin turn.

He probably bounced off it.

Seemed quicker than the 8kt limit too.

Living on a boat I know what it's like when people don't obey the No Wake signs so I always do my best to honor them on each outing.  Some boaters could give a hoot less and just fly at top speed everywhere they go.  I've seen a few fatal boat accidents recently so that is always a reminder to boat safely.  The Marine Police are just too short handed to catch all the scofflaws.

Even on your ship they get. you bouncing around?  Man they must be big.

They don't really have an effect on my live aboard but they do bounce around my 24 footer when I have it out.  I just had it out the other day to take two of the grandkids water skiing.  We had a couple of boats come flying by in a No Wake zone and they bounced us around a bit.  Unfortunately for them they got stopped around the bend by the Marine Patrol.  They were not happy when we passed by slowly and waved at them.  One was in handcuffs so I assume he had a warrant out for his arrest or he had some drugs on him.  

Don’t crash and let it go into water DJI insurance will NOT cover drone. I was attempting to land on a moving boat with my mini 4 pro. Drone collided with support and was lost in deep
Water. I have insurance and they have denied due to operator error. They have many loop-holes they’ll use to deny claim.

Ive crashed twice and lost a drone to water and both times DJI refresh covered it.

I’m truly disappointed in the communication. I’m hoping they’ll resolve the situation sooner than later

Nice capture David!

Just clickbate with a nonsense comment. - it is really clear that this is the trainig boat for the sailor. So what should be wrong with it? The small motor boat has to be close to the sailing one to give instructions etc.
