I use llbean boa boots for the canal and love them, easy on off and quick to adjust. Sand may cause some issue on occasion but the mechanism is easy to open if you have to replace the boa (I used vinyl coated stainless steel leader by Berkley). If sand does get in and jambs the ratchet adjustment you may find yourself in a position where you may have to cut the boa (leader material) to get the boot off.
