Default Huge waves and high winds this week in Key West!

Calling for 7-11 ft seas, 25-35 mph winds tomorrow........by Friday down to 3-5 ft.


It should make for good shots but hopefully everyone plays it safe this week!

Should make the last 40 miles of the Poker Run days a bit interesting as well.

Looking forward to it. We'll be running down from TNT on Thursday.

No kidding. I just looked at NOAA and though it may settle down some as the week goes on it is still going to be a little bumpy. Everyone be careful.

Think I'll just pick me up one of those new "$165K Twin O/B Baja's" the perfect do it all boat, should have no problem with this stuff. I'll strap on a few kiddy floaty toys to the wake board tower for self-righting, drop the hammers and show all those Skater, Apache and Cig boys how it's done.

Hmm, maybe for another $20K I can get Baja to strap on some out-riggers.

Everyone be safe, we will have our support rig following the run down on Thursday for any broken parts which I'm hoping there won't be many but it's there if we need it it. If anyone needs anything do not hesitate to ask.
