Wow, so much stupid behavior in that video. People running along next to a reversing tow vehicle, jumping between the truck and trailer, dude on jet ski doing tricks right next to the launch.

Only thing in my mind was electrocution, 😆 what is it 43” it can be submerged?

yeah people like this shouldnt be allowed to have boats. also why every state should require boaters licenses and tests to pass to prove you actually know the rules

Yup the max water fording height for the R1T is 43.1 inches and the R1S is 43.2 inches.

What is the water fording height? - Support Center - Rivian

Depending on your suspension settings and wheel size, the maximum water fording height of the R1T is 43.1 inches and the height of the R1S is 43.2 inches.

From my time on the water it seems like lack of common sense and excessive drinking if a prereq for most boaters.

From comments on the video it sounds like this is a normal way to launch boats at this location. Also I think the issue with the 43" is the vehicle will end up floating which is just as much an issue.

Here's another video of this R1T retrieving the boat from the lake.
