PWC biscayne national Park

What's the deal with this ban??

This past sunday i drove though the whole protected area from ley biscayne to soiler key with no problems.

Re: PWC biscayne national Park

Man you are lucky ... I don't know how much the fine will be but believe me you don't whant to get caught and find out . Also drive over the seagrass beds is very bad for the ambient as it is one delicate and very important for many fishes and some other animals . However I dont' agree with the law protecting this parks from jetski as the outboard engines can be equal or more dangerous for the park . But anyway it is the law ...

By the way yes I have drive over a seagrass bed by mistake and it is very fun but you have to be carefull high speed is the key but watch out for rocks , may end with your day and jetski hull

Good luck

I rode out to stiltsville from Haulover beach and back and chilled at the sandbar down south. One of the guys on the stiltsville home tried calling the cops on me so I bailed.

Re: PWC biscayne national Park

One of the reasons why I sold the ski. The other reason was i have a family now not just me.

Did you got to the sand bar at Stiltsville?
