Key West Rough
 

In the spirit of the 2022 World Championships with the cancellation of Wednesday’s race due to the incoming storm and winds, 22 years ago the roughest race in Key West World Championship history was held in 8 to 10 footer with an occasional 12 footers. It’s hard to believe but we did race in a rib breaking, sponson stuffing, transom cracking, equipment punishing event. The good old days


Fact is 80% of the course was that rough.

Yes Cobra You have a good eye. Offshore legend Billy Gzell’s 2nd race boat and the only triple engine cat with a center tab. Has removable insert for rear seat. Hull won worlds with Gzell and US1 with current owner Gabe Sipos Nice piece if he ever decides to sell.
