Tim!

That was very well put together and gives viewer's an up front look at the life and dangers of an Offshore Powerboat Racer. Very sad to see what happened that year at Key West. R.I.P. Joey Gratton, Bob Morgan and Jeff Tillman.

Thanks I think for seeing it again. It keeps me in check and tears me up inside. I loved that guy and miss him at the races. RIP my friend

Great video Tim of a great guy. Thanks for posting.
Joey was an amazing individual, a competitive racer and a very loving husband & father.
I haven't been able to go back to the KW Worlds since losing Joey, Bob & JT. Miss those guys and still ache for their families.

So there's no confusion, all the credit for the video goes to Tom MacKnight…. I simply wanted to share it with as many people as possible.

We all miss him and the other offshore racers dearly and there are times we can look back and reflect on the moments while they were still here with us …
