Boats crossing the Whakatane Bar,

Good music. Sorry video. Thanks for posting anyway.

You call those dingys a boat lmao

Coming in is one thing...how about going out?

You wouldn't want your engine to cut and get all that water over your transom, would you?

Poor quality !

and the 1 at 1:55 how do they even get in and out?!

ours is like the first 1 but alout bigger

how did the first 1 even get out ive been out in my boat but its open and my dad didnt know there was a bar so he allmost rolled

is that the mouth to a river?

cool video and cool music :-)

BAD ASS ! I'd love to try that out :)

Its common sense to run the bar in Whakatane you only have to wait for the set to drop about 1 in 7 you get a flat break or just keep the bow on the wave in front and follow it it in .Going out is more exciting and can get very wet when the bar is like this its better to just stay home .Have fished out of there for 35 years never had a problem on the bar just treat it with respect if the seas shitty just stay home .

GOING OUT IS EASY, COMMING BACK IS THE BITCH

well they had to have gotten out there somehow, or does it really pick up that dramatically around there?

Easy, I've done it many of times. Just keep the same speed as the waves. Slower and you get swamped and faster you lose control.
