Obviously they just don't get it. A large part of boating is having the ability to get away from the crowds.

[@acoupleofgoats]

Right, but another large part of boating is hanging at the sandbar with other boaters.

[@MiamiLiving305]

A large part of having a boat is having options. Nobody likes to get away from crowds more then life by the bow but how they said you have to mix in a little crazy everyone once in a while

[@MiamiLiving305]

I agree 2 goats 1 boat

[@7Des7]

Another great video. Watching this is bitter sweet for me. I really enjoy watching all the Miami boat life content creators but it reminds me of how much I miss it. The lake life and lake parties are cool but nothing compares to boating in Miami/Keys. Keep up the Great work

[@MiamiLiving305]

I have to agree with you 100% its not only the location its the people also

[@jackiehartmansvlogs626]

How fun

[@MiamiLiving305]

Yes it was

[@jimmydtaylor2]

Great video. Memorial Day is for service members who died in service to our country. Veterans Day is set aside for those who served.

Thank you for the clarification

Welcome to the Family Andrew

[@music-jj2pl]

I was at key largo that weekend got to the beach there were like 30 boats already there i felt like turning around. had fun but if i would have seen this i would have dipped. I get anxiety thinking my boat is going to hit another one. I just need more practice anchoring in a crowd.

[@RuibalJc]

rightfully so, these sandbar parties are fun, but its always drunk captains making their way in and out of areas they have no business being in. Many cut anchor lines, most of the time its a pissing contest anyways. My recommendation, is go early, and try to make some boating friends to tie onto, that always makes it less stressful

[@MiamiLiving305]

That's is all it is with time the anxiety goes down and ability goes up. You can not be scared to be outside your comfort zone.

[@MiamiLiving305]

Great Advise Jc getting there early like I did helps a lot

[@GD_Golf]

I had the same boat as you (Invincible Cat now) Get 2 8ft pole anchor poles as it is so much easier than using a stern anchor and holds the gamefish 27 perfectly.

[@MiamiLiving305]

Yea the Poles make it a lot easier to anchor at the sandbar. I guess Im just old school

[@GD_Golf]

@@MiamiLiving305 lol I'm old school too but I stepped on my anchor and killed my foot and that's when I switched

[@williamgleaton2992]

Let's be totally honest ,having that many folks all in one place ,all drinking alot ,to me that would be like swimming in a toilet.

I would not all the atlantic ocean a toilet but ok

[@MiamiLiving305]

@@williamgleaton2992 You are saying this place is like a toliet and im saying with the current and wind from the ocean its far from it and super clear and clean water

[@williamgleaton2992]

@@MiamiLiving305 Don't act stupid ,at no time did I say the Atlantic ocean around Miami was polluted or any other part of the ocean, I'm a lifelong Floridian of 70 years ,was a lifeguard for 11 of those years and I know for a fact, when you have a few thousand folks concentrated in one area the are drinking therefore peeing ,which as I said it makes that water (IN THAT AREA) like a toilet. So now by all means be quiet it just makes you look really silly.

I would just annoy the heck out of the other boats and crank up Motley Cru, Def Leppard, Poison, Rush, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Phil Collins, there would be nothing with a Caribbean flavour!!! 😂😂😂.

[@dwightbutler4802]

Love the content! I am considering buying my first boat but I did not see any jet boats in the video. Am I missing something? Are they not good for the sandbars?

[@MiamiLiving305]

They are but they are not popular down here because since it not a lake and its the ocean there is usually some waves in the ocean side and jet boats do not do good in waves also most people in the keys love fishing, we have some of the best fishing in the US so people tend to have Center Consoles for the dual purpose. Also Jet Boats do not do good in seaweed either

What is sandbar etiquette? Don't anchor in front of another boat? Like everyone should have a free lane to get out? oh i just saw the whole video its get in where you fit in wow. everyone seems to be cool with it though.

Yes its first come first serve. I Usually only get blocked in during Holidays because on regular weekends if there is space next to you usually a boat won't get right in front of you

I usually like your videos, and this one is shot well. I just don’t understand how a fisherman would want to condone this huge cesspool of trash and human waste being concentrated in one area. It cannot be good for the fish or environment. I bet there is a bunch of trash and plastic found in the water the next day. Keep that crap up in Miami and leave the Keys pristine!

[@MiamiLiving305]

I have never seen trash floating around nor have a ever stepped on a can or bottle in my years of going their. People here as much as they drink and party are also concerned with cleaning up for themselves. These people are boaters not Music Festival Fans

Just just there the next weekend and it was as clean as ever. Locals here usually clean after themselves. This is not a sandbar you find bottles and trash everywhere
