Boat Safety, Over Loaded, Belize, Bar
Author: admin
In Belize, tours packs people into boats like sardines. The first boat came in with 52 people. I counted them but did’t film it, this boat was about a 35′ Boat. If you count the people I would say by any safe standards it was overloaded. I took this video from the 2nd story of a waterfront Bar.Good thing this wasn’t in the US as the Coast Guard would have loved to write up this violation of common sense. Hard to believe all these tourists and no one thought that nothing was abnormal.
