Those are my two favorites : bb290 and the pikachu hat 😅

Sigh, the BB290, that was a nice boat. My foster mom has it by the way.

Hi hey Erick! Beautfiful drone footage! Hope you and Jason had a really good time!

[@ErickMartinSucre]

We did thank you Travis. I love Shell Key.

@@ErickMartinSucre You're very welcome Erick! 🤗☺️👍🏻😎Very very good to hear you guys did enjoy being there! I can certainly see why you love being there!

[@JoseBauzo]

great video sir :)

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Glad you liked it Jose and thanks for watching 8-)

[@JoseBauzo]

@@ErickMartinSucre i want to get a peddle kayak and camp those islands :)

[@ErickMartinSucre]

@@JoseBauzo You can do that for sure. I saw a few kayakers there

[@Soladaddy]

Tell Jason to get a trolling motor. I have a $90 30 lb MinnKota on a canoe and it'll cruise 4-5 knots easy, but I'm dreaming about a small Gheenoe and that Tohatsu 6HP. Most people trailer that combo, but I want to be able to roof top carry, so the reason for the 6HP. We love to camp at Ft Desoto and I fish the south side of that channel. Now you are giving me the itch to get back out there.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Haha then my job here is done. Get out there and be safe 8-)

[@failedclown36]

i would love to see your canoe setup. I have an old minnkota model on a cheap plastic canoe and my setup is barely okay for one guy(me). I'm landlocked, but planning a Kaskaskia river trip as soon as time allows

[@Soladaddy]

Its an Old Town Osprey 140 made from royalex so its only 57 lbs and that may have a lot to do with the speed. Unfortunately royalex is no longer made.

[@outdooradventureswithjason6275]

Drone shots are awesome, I need to add that. What a great time.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Yeah it was a good trip

[@MrElvisr27]

omg im going at the end of this month and i almost cancelled thinking it was to far of a paddle. Well i have a pedal drive but still. It doest seem very far at all. Thank you so much.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Not at all, it's a breeze to get there. It'll probably take you 15-20 min at most.

[@MrElvisr27]

@@ErickMartinSucre Next time you go, let me know. Id be happy to join yall.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

@@MrElvisr27 I was planning a camping trip this weekend but rain is coming. Changed plans to Salt Springs day trip this Friday in Ocala.

[@MrElvisr27]

@@ErickMartinSucre did your friend flip his kayak because of the wakes of other boats?

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Possibly, he never told me if there was a boat passing by or not.

[@BryTunesMusic]

Very cool trip and footage - think I will try this before too long - have a kayak, but may take the ferry and see if they can put my yak on it - just to be sure I get a good crossing - do you think a person would feel safe more than a few days? It's sad, but I have seen at least one video with the idea of sort barrier island banditos who my come in their boat to get wallets, idk - thanks man!

[@ErickMartinSucre]

I haven't had any issues in all of the islands I've camped in. I do however conceal carry a fire arm just in case.

[@BryTunesMusic]

@@ErickMartinSucre I heard that! Thanks so much, looking forward to your vids- here's where I saw the incident, seems a little like a squirrely spot kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYqcpaCZiNJrjac

[@ErickMartinSucre]

@@BryTunesMusic Pine Key/Beer Island. I have never been there but I assume that because there is more water traffic in the area it may bring some unsavory ppl around.

[@HH-xj2ik]

Awesome video! What drone setup are you using? Keep it up man!

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Thank you! I've been using my 3-year-old Mavic Pro 1st generation. It's been a good drone to me, I may upgrade to like the Mavic 2 or Mavic Air 2 in the future but I feel like I can get another 2-3 years out of this drone easily.

[@evaramirez2214]

Hi Erick , beautifully island and images with the drone 🙌God bless you.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Hello Liany! Thank you for that I appreciate it 8-)

[@paulumer4378]

great video. water didn't look that choppy you think my gheenoe would have any problems visiting/getting there?

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Shell Key is super easy, however, if you keep going past the channel towards the Gulf, that would be a different story

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Я рад, что вам понравилось и добро пожаловать обратно 8-)

[@vastyrivera]

hello where is that I want to camp like this, I bought an inflatable boat

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Woot woot!! Congrats!! This is a place called Shell Key. It's an island only accessible with a water vessel like a boat, kayak, canoe etc. It is located in Fort De Soto south of Clearwater. St. Peterburtg to be exact. If you live in Florida you may be able to get there. The Fort De Soto boat ramp has a 5 dollar fee for overnight parking. You can just take off from there heading west and you'll get there withing minutes.

[@vastyrivera]

Erick Martin Sucre thank you❤️💋

[@ErickMartinSucre]

@@vastyrivera Anytime. Have fun out there and be safe!

[@vastyrivera]

Erick Martin do i have to pay to be on the island?

[@vastyrivera]

Erick Martin Sucre thankss👍

[@randylibby5206]

Hey Erick planning to go to Fort DeSoto Campground and want to hang out on Shell Key. Question: on the way to shell key in my 12 foot MARS do you lock or unlock the tilt in case of hitting shallow water?

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Nice trip that will be. I am going to be camping at the Fort De Soto campground myself next weekend. I leave mine unlocked in the event I hit an even shallower area. It will prevent any heavy damage to it. It's super easy to get to the island since it's only 1 mile away you'll get there really quick. When you beach at the island be careful getting out of the boat since the current there can sometimes get strong.

How do you not run out of gas

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Dude, I had 3 gallons and only used about 1/4 of the tank. The Tohatsu 6hp sips fuel. I could have easily camped for 3-4 days straight moving about in the water and still have some fuwl left.

[@goodvibeskayakrentals]

Hey Erik I was wondering If you would reach out to me about your drone work?

Sure, what is it you'll like to know?

Even better then the last video. You were either brave or crazy going to the Skyway. That Bay gets rough at times especially in the afternoons. What model boat is that one?

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Yes it does but thankfully the waters were not that wild that day. I felt so out of my comfort zone when I was there but the adrenaline was pumping hard lol

[@ErickMartinSucre]

That was a limited budget edition Saturn put out few years back. It is called the BB290. It is squared and it gives the impression that it is bigger than it actually is. Feels like an 11 footer but it is actually a 9.6 feet long boat.

[@10001694]

I’m thinking about the SB385 but not definite yet. I’m also looking at the 15 HP or the 9.9 hp for it. I will mostly have 2 people per trip but sometimes there could 4. Not sure if the 9.9 will get it up on plane.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

@@10001694 If you can get your hands on the 15hp go for it since they weight the same. The SD385 will do nicely as well.

[@davidroxas9849]

Do you need a special permit to leave your vehicle overnight at the boat ramp?

[@ErickMartinSucre]

That depends where you leave it at. The boat should be registered but if you leave it on a marina there may be fees to pay. Usually when I go island camping, I take the boat with me and put it next to my tent. I have the transom wheels on my inflatable

[@davidroxas9849]

@@ErickMartinSucre I'm talking about your car at the boat ramp.
