BOATING 101 - How to drive a boat & use trim tabs | Gale Force Twins

I recently purchased a boat that has trim tabs. leveling out the boat side to side was explained but this is the first I have heard about using it to control bow bouncing. Thanks for the tip!

It is inappropriate to call a piston powered machine a "motor". A "motor" is an electrical device. The proper nomenclature would be "engine". It may seem a trivial distinction, but if you ever have a client that has experienced 8th grade science, they would know the difference and may question your credibility. You're welcome.

If you were teaching a novice with absolutely no experience of Boats at all, which video would you show first and then in what order?

amazing how the English language seems to be sooooo difficult for a bunch of Young-uns! All this stuff all of us knew by age 12 - we had Fathers at home every day and Dad would share his Guy activities with his kiddos! .... and both Boys and Girls were generally in Scouting! Camping, chopping firewood, knowing edible fruit & berries from all the local trees and bushes, most everyone knew by the time you are 10 or 11! TVs were OFF except for an hour or two a day. There was only ONE tv and everyone in the family ATE together and WATCHED tv together. No TVs in bedrooms of kiddos!

I subscribed to your channel because you guys do more than teach, and explains things very well. You tell a story you give a beginning, middle and end as to what’s going on why it’s going on how it’s going on what to do about it and you make it easy to understand… so thank you

Ya'll are so cute. Great info!

Great video guys

Very informational. Love it.🎉

I grew up on the water and on boats, but am here looking for pointers on helping new boaters. I have friends who just bought their first boat and are looking to me for some boaters training. This video was helpful to watch to make sure I covered all the basics for them thoroughly. Thanks for the help.
My only critique would be to either cover docking or mention that you're going to cover docking in a separate video and then provide the link to that. Docking is one of the things most messed up by new boaters... that and boat ramp fails.

Love the channel. Where did you get the fish identifier on the stern of your boat?

Waoo you are very good in details explanation.

thank you for this info!!

Fantastic

Like button is SMASHED!!!!

FINALLY this is the info i've been looking for. thank you ladies. very easy to understand. liked and subbed.

Thank you for this great video. I just got my boating license and need great tips like this.

I don't own a boat.
I don't fish.
I don't live near water.
HELL I don't even know how I got to this video.
BUT...I love it.

NICE ONE GIRLS 🥰 FOLLOWED.!❤🔥🔥🔥🔥

Thank you for your video,I just started boating and still have trouble understanding the markers in the water

Watched you from a few years back, Dade County. There was so much sheeeeit in this shhhhclapp of an advert that I’m going back to crabbing.
YEEEHAW!

Excellent explanation

Are you womansplaining me?

Thanks!

No Port left in the Bottle!!😃👍🏼🍷

Whaching here and full support I love Boating

Remember to have a Class B extinguisher. Class A extinguishers from your house are for organic fuels like: wood, clothing, paper, rubber, etc. Using a Class A house extinguisher on fire from: fuels, epoxies, polyester, oil, etc. (Which would be the likely fire on your boat) can cause big flame-ups.

Good work. Your boat was riding nice and smooth

i wish they make cars with batery on and off as well.

Thank you girls. When I was taught how to operate a boat, I don't recall being told to back away from the dock. It just so happens that when I untrailer a boat that I'm always going backwards anyhow, but thanx!

I love your red vs blue-esque intro song

Awesome thanks twins

Great video

Great Video for a new bee

Very well explained! This'll be my go-to video before handling one.

I do not own a boat but I am curious about boat ops. This was as we say in the Military, Good training! Very informative and well presented. Thanks!

Great info guys keep up the good work ❤

Hello nice video what type of boat is that one?

This was my first video on boating. I actually learned a few things.

I am going to take my boat safety course on a few day. hope this helps. Awesome video. now I know where port and starboard is.

As a new boat owner/operator this was very helpful

OMG ! The GFx2's were on a big boat. I was surprised they didn't put out a couple of planer lines with blue and pink sea witch jigs. Manny F.

The two of you are so good at your explanations and actually teach us all something every time we watch. Thanks for the girls on the water, we all are pushing forward to get our respect with all of those good old boys, in service, marinas, etc which are not very helpful with new boat owners or info in general. What a refreshing approach you give us all, thanks so much.

Very informative video. Thank yall twins. Pretty girls also. 👍🏿

For first 2 minutes i thought its just one person recording the video.

Awesome video, also to note trim tabs could help you get on plane if needed. I have a cabin cruiser style boat and when it’s loaded up heavy with people and belongings putting the trim tabs all the way down as well helps it plane faster and at a lower speed than it would otherwise
