Is this you?

Looks like a lot of people in that boat. It is splashing over faster than he is bailing.
 
Probably needed to get bow up to let that scupper work. Easier said than done at haulover I suspect
 
Crazy! Good example of somebody who needs a safe boating course.
 
OMG.... I am new to my SX240 but as a long time boat owner, my first thought of the lines of my hull were the downward swoop of the bow (I love the lines)but knew I always need to keep this in mind, as my throttle hand needs to keep bow up on the FL ocean/bay waves I encounter. I was smiling at all the heavyweights in the center watching this poor guy......LOL removing bailer from bow, throwing all the heavy's in the back seats and throttling up sure would let the self bailing system do its job.

Taking my 240 in Hanover inlet (I assume that's where this was) IS NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN, great video needed a smile today.
 
That driver had to know his boat is self bailing and he could have drained all of that by giving it a little throttle to raise the bow. Maybe his buddy owed him money or lost a bet and he wanted to freak him out a little :D.
