Well the way course goes to the west of the island is up on to the flats toward the Marqueses Keys. From the map the it looks like it goes from mid 30 foot range in the middle of the harbor to 15-17 feet at turns 4 & 5. Thats seems to me like a pretty big difference but I am not the deep sea mariner like some others. I just don't see what the problem with the course going out into the ocean like it did last year is. My money is on Harwich in F2 if they race this course.

Joey no offense to you or anyone just that the course is too short and NOT taking advantages of what Key West has to offer. It looks to me like it will take away spector viewing at Ft. Zach by moving the course further offshore there and take away the rougher water wich SHOULD be a draw to KW with the rough and the flat.
