A 5th generation South Floridian, I grew up boating around Biscayne Bay and the Keys. My dad patrolled the Bay and Everglades for the National Park Service. We also spent time as successful treasure hunters both in Florida and the Bahamas. I've lived in Jupiter 33 years and am at the inlet nearly every day. I'm the guy with the hat and the only local native Floridian filming Jupiter local boating scene. Thanks for watching and leave a comment.
Thanks for sharing- I saw us heading out the inlet. You were up early. I know video editing is time consuming. If you could somehow post an approximate time of day that would be useful.
I usually film Saturday morning until around 8:00 or 8:30. If the boats are heading out of the inlet that's when I was there. Sometimes I stop by in the afternoons, that footage would show the boats coming in. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Great camera work and production quality. I do have to say that most of us watching these videos enjoy the sound of the waves more than the backing track.
It is an un-navagable inlet. They are just finishing up dredging now- May 2024. When my father was a kid, the inlet would completely block. The locals would come together and dig a small trench which would then open it up for a while.
It's a interesting contrast between the boats at this inlet - mostly purposeful fishing boats - and those filmed going out of Haulover Inlet in the Miami area. Only 90 miles apart but, culturally, a huge distance .
Boy, that's the truth. Haulover is the only inlet between Ft. Lauderdale and Gov't Cut and there are hundreds if not thousands of miles of canals so the volume of boats there is tremendous. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Grew up in the Inlet Colony. Always maintained friendship with Coast Guard so I was able to fish off their dock. Caught some monster snook back in the 70’s before all the restrictions. Kept my boat at American Boating Center on south side of inlet right by the bridge. Good times - good memories.
That was my old stomping ground back in th 80's and early 90's lots of good memories, I was a boat captain and we fished heavily out of palm beach and jupiter inlet FUN FUN place
This is absurd, why are there no channel markers or even hazard markers around this shoal ? In any case he will have substantial damage to his boat and perhaps running gear. So that is a haul out, plus repair job. Could be running in the tens of thousands. The prop shafts have zero protection. Then we are looking at V-brackets, props, shafts, seals, bottom itself. Expensive afternoon.
@@user-bl8ck5bs2m we do it all the time. We cruise around in the Med and travel from one anchorage to the next one. Every anchorage is a new one to us so I have to trust the charts and markers (plus depth meter) to be able to plan a route to those places and we do it with care. This boat definitely had all the navigation gear onboard, that we can be sure off. So the question becomes: 'did the person steering the boat use the charts and navigation equipment' or is this not on the charts ? Regardless of those answers, I still think that shoals like this should be marked and since apparently 2 boats grounded within the last couple of weeks I don't think that is a bad idea. Markers are there to ensure safe passage, then I would say: use them.
Doesn’t this guy know about breakers? Aren’t there bouys marking the channel? Is it marked on his GPS? Did he come out that same channel? If he did, did he lay down a track?
Isn't the channel marked on the charts/GPS as well with actual red and green buoys? From what we can see on the mast, they seem to have modern navigational equipment on board.
Many inlets are considered unnavigable . They would not be marked or on charts. Sandbars are constantly shifting. This is where local knowledge is key.
@@JUPITERINLETBOATSnp bro. For reference my and my buddy went out a couple weeks ago on his 21 foot SeaCat, we launched off of a rouge wave in the inlet and went vertical, landed on the motors and stern and turned right back around 😂.
