I live in miami and dive up and down the east coast from the keys to sometimes Pompano. Ive been wanting to have a little boat to go out with maybe me and 2 more divers. i cant have a trailered boat and i cant dock one ether. So i was looking at none rigid inflatable boats to dive off of, that i can just fold up after im done with it and store it inside my house.

Does anyone do this in the South Florida area? are these boats appropriate for the conditions we get? from what i understand ppl that dive with these tend to stay in protected water. What Boat size would be appropriate to go out like 2 - 4 miles at most. i was looking at a 12 footer? :idk:

also how strong of an engine would i need? would a 15 hp do?

Does anyone have a pic of one of these boats fully loaded, i get the feeling space is going to be limited so perhaps i would need a bigger boat.
