Wild Videos For Southwest Florida Boaters

Labor Day Weekend is traditionally big for boaters. However, in Southwest Florida, almost every weekend is good for boating. Small spaces, wide open water, boaters often have to be creative when it comes to making sure passengers are comfortable. Boating is not a one size fits all kind of activity. In addition, it is not always glamorous. However, it is almost always fun. Here are some wild videos for Southwest Florida boaters for TikTok Tuesday.

I don't have a boat but am fortunate to have friends that do. I'm always amazed at the tricks and hacks they come up with to accommodate  passengers. Some of them are here. There is also a funny video that all boat owners understand regardless of how many vessels you have owned over the years. The videos also show a couple of really cool accessories and super cool upgraded for those who like to get in the water, not just on in.

Over the weekend, thousands of beach and boating photos and videos crossed my social media feed. I pulled five of the most interesting ones involving boats and boating to share here. You do not need a TikTok account to watch these videos. We'll use mine. All you have to do is scroll down and then hit play. They are all office friendly and also kid friendly. If you have a boat or have been a passenger on one, you will relate.

The idea of owning a boat is dreamy for many. It looks like so much fun, and it is. However, it's not always glamorous as this video shows. Can you relate?

Meeting up with friends on the water is always fun. But trying to tie-up to them can be a nightmare. This little accessory looks easy and when not inflated does not take up valuable space onboard.

If I could have an over the top, yet functional feature on my boat/yacht, this would be high up on the list. Especially if you have passengers who want to go into the water but are afraid of sharks. How cool is this pool.

This is what I mean about the creativity of boat people. I know, you're on a boat and bound to get wet. But sometimes that rain comes down with a vengeance and it hurts when it hits your skin. If you are claustrophobic, this might not work. However....

This one is going so fast, it gives new meaning to the word flying. It really is flying across the water. Incredible video.
