A 12 ft will be crowded with two divers and gear. Once you put a motor on it you won't be allowed to launch from shore. This means you will have to go out an inlet. If the ocean is flat you can still have 3-4 foot waves from the large yachts and big charter boats in the inlet. The waves hit the shore and bounce back making a confused sea state. It can get sporty. I wouldn't recommend it
Yea i know the inlets really really suck to get out of, but im pretty sure it can be done especially with a slightly bigger boat and engine. just got make sure not to go out one really bad days. Could also go around Key Biscayne for Miami stuff.
Is there really no beach launching in south Florida at all? Cant we row out and place the motor on the boat once we are out of the no boat zone?
