Default Florida Boaters Caught on Video Dumping Trash Directly Into the Ocean

I hope these scumbags get turned in. Boca bash started as a birthday party for a good friend of mine back in 07. It has morphed into an insane boating event. Too bad there are POS like this that ruin it for folks....

"...A group of Florida boaters were caught on camera dumping bins of trash directly into the water in Florida.

According to reports, it appears that the incident occurred during the Boca Bash on Sunday, April 28, an annual event that draws thousands of boaters, most of whom are there to party.

The party, which is held in Lake Boca Raton, isn’t affiliated officially with the city of Boca. It has an interesting origin story.

The event originally started as a birthday bash for then-local Rockey Rossi,..."

They didn't choose where they were born, but they chose where they decided to live. Based on the fact that the boat has three massive engines, I'd say that they are permanent residents.

Florida has tens of thousand of boats out there daily, vast majority of boaters are not aholes.
These aholes need to suffer the full hammer of The Law.

Hole-up hombre…
Based on the boat having three outboards is evidence that they are permanent Florida residents?

Three engine boats went out of style twenty years ago down here:



BTW, outboards are for poor folks, unless you got a Viking, you are low-end.
FLORIDA probably has more Vikings than the other 49 combined:

You would be surprised how many boats are kept in Florida by out of state owners.

Those with STACKS have a FLORIDA vacation home and / or a boat in in marina.

Marina space in FLORIDA is a tough get these days.
I know of a dood, may be family, he may have to buy an intercoastal home this year as cannot find a marina that meets his needs, slip size and not on the end of the dock.
Problem here is his condo has a great oceanfront view he would miss, so I graciously told him I could manage the new home, and, of course, live there to ensure high-quality management.

I used to keep my Mako CC sport fisher at a marina in a lift on the water, Destin Harbor, at $400 per month in the 1990’s. Today that same slip is two grand.

Alton Road Marina, what us locals call it, actually Miami Beach Marina, www.miamibeachmarina.com , is world-class, and next to all things, was once accessible, but no more, as city got damn greedy.

The dood used to rent it for 2+ weeks every year, stopped five years ago, as they went from $7.00/foot per day to $11.00/foot, so he was paying almost $900/day, so that is $20K for three weeks.

He now takes boat to Key West for two months at under $15K/month.

There is almost no space at good marinas from Miami north to Stuart.

There are boats and RV’s and cars that are expensive and see very little use.
Marinas and storage facilities are huge business in Florida.

Hell there million dollar 2nd homes that sit empty most of the year.
