He did warn me that Florida sugar sand and bottomless mud are not the Ural's friends (bring a winch or come along and a friend).
Congrats!
I also learned quickly to stay out of the sand. a few weeks after I had mine I decided to enjoy some late night beach time. 10 feet off the pavement was about all I made it. Spent the next hour in full cardio and colorful language mode. Eventually some local bradda's came by and pulled the silly haole back to pavement. ;-)
