There are no USCG surf stations in Florida = no rough inlets. Nasty, choppy, cruddy, crowded, full of neophyte rental drivers, call 'em something, but rough? Try 12-15 foot breakers across the entire channel for "rough" inlets. (See: national motor life boat school videos)
@@erichammond9308 You have clearly not been out of many inlets in Florida if you believe that. Boynton on swelly or windy days is extremely rough. You will get 12 foot plus breaking waves slamming into the inlet mouth and over the north jetty. The bar stands the waves up something fierce and there isn't much room to maneuver.
@@RikkiTikkiTavi290 12 foot seas in Florida are extremely rare, and mostly during tropical storm or hurricane conditions. Any inlet will be rough in that kind of weather. No, it's more likely that casual boaters have an annoying tendency to vastly over estimate wave heights. The experts are the NWS and the USCG. In order for the USCG to assign a heavy weather or surf station to an inlet it must experience 8+ foot breakers, and/or 10+ foot seas within its AOR for an average of 36 days per year based on NWS data, and there are no heavy weather or surf stations in Florida, thus one can say that the inlets in Florida may get rough occasionally, but are they rough frequently or regularly? No.
@@RikkiTikkiTavi290 Oh, and No, I haven't been out of any Florida inlets, as a USCG Heavy Weather Coxswain, I was always stationed at Surf Stations or Heavy Weather Stations, and Florida doesn't have any. I know what 12 foot breakers look like, and what casual boaters call "12 feet" is usually around 6 feet.
@@erichammond9308 Florida in winter time consistently gets large swells from the north east in the 6-10 ft range. Like anywhere else the bars outside the inlet mouths stand the waves up quite a bit taller. You can say what you want, it happens. Plenty of videos on TH-cam of it happening at Boynton and other places.
Yes!!! I would run THAT aluminum boat anywhere. I used to charter fish on lake superior. 1st boat was 23ft bayliner. 2nd boat was 28ft trojan flybridge.
My son and i .. in the aluminum (plate boat) 1/4 thick alloy cc (2003)2325v pacific skiff 250sho 51 mph top speed no waxing no buffing put it away after a good rinse only
Ah that's what your doing over there, I fish directly across from you,sometimes I wear a big straw hat,you missed my monster snook a few days back haha
The ratings really don't do much for me. Typically they seem to be proportional to the size of the boat. Bigger boats require less skill so I'm not feeling it.
The question is why not run an aluminum cc? Anywhere. I run a 16ft aluminum and I love it cause it goes wherever I want. I've safely fished bluefin tuna 30 miles off NJ and fished sailfish in Miami. It's way better then glass. All you need to fix them is a rivet gun and sealant. They trailer better then glass and don't get water logged and soft. Idk why they haven't caught on here. In Australia it's literally all they use.
@@RikkiTikkiTavi290 neither of those things is exactly accurate. Aluminum boats these days are extremely quiet because they are built way better and they ride Just as good as any fiberglass boat. Plus they are much more fuel efficient because they are usually lighter. They aren't what they were 20 years ago chief. You ever been on a Stabi or Metal Shark or Even an older Striker? I've been on a Striker 48 90 miles off NJ in 15ft seas and that boat handled it better then the 61 Viking that we were out there with. There is a reason you don't see used stabicraft, metal sharks and strikers. Just like there is a reason there are millions of StarCraft, Lowe etc used. If you wanna be cheap you'll get cheap
@@mulletoutdooradventures6286 You are not going to convince me aluminum isn't louder. I've been on a Metal Shark up near Montauk and it was loud as hell. All that exposed aluminum gets pretty damn hot to the touch in hotter weather too. That particular boat handled chop pretty well. Since you brought up aluminum being lighter though, the same size glass vs aluminum boat shouldn't have the aluminum boat being as good of a ride because being lighter means you get slapped around by waves more.
@@mulletoutdooradventures6286 You brought up aluminum being lighter and now it doesn't mean anything? Yes hydrodynamics is important but without proper weight it doesn't perform as well. And as far as facts go, aluminum is definitely much louder than glass so there goes another "fact".
Your inlet run ratings could not be more off. Anyone who feels the need to run Boynton at 35++ or passing other boats at stupid speeds in the channel should get no better than a 2. I ran weekly in a large boat, outriggers down and slow to clear the bridge, like the 44 Contender, and so many times I would almost get run over by Joe Douchebag trying to impress the guys fishing from the pier with the speed....really. Not to mention smaller craft or anyone approaching from the South who finds them self head on with James Bond shooting out at 40+. Park your ego, the boat can speak for you. The danger involved in running Boynton or any other Florida inlet is way over-rated.
Everything you said other than the danger of Boynton being overrated is bang on. Its been my primary inlet for 17 years and it is still dangerous. Swelly and windy days are not to be taken lightly.
This is considered a good day at Boynton Inlet. I will be covering this inlet on a regular basis going forward. Thanks for all the feedback.

3:33 KW dominated the inlet with his girl in a tiny boat on a rough day was grossly undervalued.. just sayn
Been in and out of Boynton more times than I can count. She is a fickle beast!!! Love the channel!! More please.
Dude come on....key west should've got a 10. 17ft boat v. 30fts+
Thanks for doing Boynton inlet
Got some great stuff from this weekend on the way.
Craziest inlet in Florida

How is the fishing at these inlets!?

I grew up on the Jupiter Inlet. Always thought that could be sketchy depending on the weather and time of year. This looks tame by comparison.
Jupiter is much more treacherous, been through both inlets, Jupiter takes no prisoners when mother nature is cranky!!!
You're both talking about Jupiter on bad days and Boynton on a good day. Boynton on a bad day is white knuckle out and in.
Ah that's what your doing over there, I fish directly across from you,sometimes I wear a big straw hat,you missed my monster snook a few days back haha
When I’m in fla I visit inlet part boynton a watch boat a going in and out alway interesting

agreed
Those HCB really are impressive boats!!
Best Center Console Made
Let's go 1 million subs!
Who cares where his friends are, I'd boat by myself any time with a boat like that!
These boats are going so fast in and out of inlet...😮
out or in, my first rule would be EVERYONE in the back of the boat... bow riding in these inlets is just ridiculous...
Or standing on the friggen gunnel.
Geez, the smaller boats did way better than the larger ones for the size difference in those conditions.
We used to jump off the bridge as kids on incoming
People are still doing it
Cool beans
Litely Salted is a Palmetto 290 Adventure/CC
Yep, Thanks for playing!
vids seemed dark, could'nt tell if it were morning or evening. loved the vid tho !!
Before the addition to the north jetty the inlet was far more exciting.
Power makes it easy
It seams like only 1 boat at a time. Let's see some multi boat action.
3:58 gets 2 on the way out, pick a side and stay there.
Was the mystery boat and ocean master?
Nope
@@RoughInlets OCEAN MASTER WOULD HAVE BEEN MY GUESS
👍👍😎⚓
Mystery boat looks like a palmetto
That inlet doesn't look that bad
This was a nice day at Boynton
NO WAVES TODAY☹️
Mystery boat an Albacore?
Nope, good guess
Palmetto

Aluminum is loud as heck for one and they don't ride as well.

Nice Center console but, Get one your GF can take a leak instead.
I know this is a very old comment but almost all of these center consoles have a head underneath
