Visiting Ponce Inlet Sandbars on a Classic Boston Whaler

The Ponce Inlet area is home to a number of great sandbars. The two most popular are "Disappearing Island" and "TaTa Island". In this video I'll feature both and show you why they are awesome and how to get here. Both are located in New Smyrna Beach. Once again, I'll trailer my 1986 Classic Boston Whaler Montauk 17 to show you that you don't need an expensive boat to visit amazing places.

    Great video, just found your channel. I have a '77 Whaler Newport 17. Just finished up some woodwork and can't wait to retire and move to Bonita Springs. Looking forward to to the adventures in Florida with my Whaler. Thanks again.

    Just found your videos, love them. I have a '77 Montauk and I am convinced the classic Montauk may be the most versatile boat ever made. I have a 75 Etec on mine and it uses basically no fuel. I have the 24 gallon Moeller fuel tank and my range is insane. If I cruise at around 3500 rpm, about 22-23 mph, I get around 6 mpg. WOT still gets about 5 mpg. You are absolutely correct in that you don't need a big boat to have a nice day on the water. Keep up the videos.

    Thanks! Everything you said is spot-on. The Etec is the perfect engine for the Classic Montauk. Too bad they stopped making them.

    The closest ramp to Ponce inlet is not near the airport. Ponce Inlet has its own ramp.

    Thanks for the heads-up. I was thinking that was the closest on the mainland.

    About 75 miles (est) with the two 6 gallon tanks I have in it currently. I’m going to replace them with one big, 26 gallon tank though. That will give me tons of range.
