    The price debate with flats boats is stupid because most flats boats can cost from 35k to 85k new when you can get a nice condition used whitewater, Rambo, Stamas, mako etc.

    Used is the way to go! I just find it interesting how polling skills are more expensive from factory than flats boats in general. Paying more for less boat.

    I live in the keys I'm sorry but you are wrong about state waters. Highlighted Boundary maps and management zones in FWC website define "Florida state waters are from shore to 3 nautical miles on the Atlantic and from shore to 9 nautical miles on the gulf.. The map you posted @ 0:46 clearly shows the highlighted section 9 miles on the gulf side in Monroe.......

    Is it common for free divers to set a timer like that? Sounds crazy but it COULD make sense Im not a diver but ive read that you basically think your way out of wanting to breathe. So maybe if you're ignoring your body then a timer helps

    Hi Derek, great video❗️🏝🍾 I'm quickly becoming a fanbof your channel. Thanks for having a plan for your videos and not chucking something together for the algorithms of KZread. I like that you are not promoting endless products or making a music video with fishing. Endless slow motion with music filler is so dated and boring compared to dive footage with narration. 🏝🧜‍♂️⛵️🇺🇲

    Its all gonna depend on the customer and what they want to spend. Ceramic coating is always the way to go if you want to take car of your investment. Some people just dont see the point of spending 600,800,1k or more to ceramic coat a car or boat or RV because they dont understand the process. Me being a detailer see it time to time.
