Default Key West, Fort Meyers or Englewood where to go

Main purpose is the races the parties and night life are a bonus but not a requirement.
Love Key West but unsure how things will be with RWO running it. Boat count is my concern.

Seems like OPA should get a good turn out for Fort Meyers and Englewood.

Give me your thoughts.

Thanks

If its just racing, go OPA.

If you want the best overall performance boat experience, do Key West. The racing is less exciting, but the weekend with 200+ poker run teams, plus fans, the race pits, the poker run village and all the boats on display and running around is hard to beat. Plus each night you are guaranteed to be with old friends an make many new ones in the community

We are heading to Ft Myers. Will spend a day on land wandering the pits and then watch the races from the boat.

Ft Myers and Englewood. I’ll be at both. OPA has had 60+ boats at the championship series races this year. It’s been great.

Figured Fort Meyers and Englewood would be the favorites with the OPA drawing larger fields for the events .Like Key West for everything else. Yeah the over priced hotels etc in Key West are ridiculous but had found a cheaper alternative so that was not an issue.

Thanks will check out the OPA events then.
