Hi All,
More photos from Keywest  some of these are taken in the Gallion Marina where most of the poker run boats are berthed.... this is also where we are keeping our jet ski so we have prime viewing, it's been very very windy today with quite rough seas but we still managed to circumnavigate the island...... we have already done 160 miles.... most of the poker run boats stayed in the shelter of the harbour!!
Peter & Carolyn

If you exclude 3 fatalities from the event, fairly sure it was fine.

And these guys had a close call too - but thankfully are OK. Not sure who the photo credit goes to - found it on OSO I think.

We have been having a few internet issues, here are the shots from Sunday i went and stood on the fire escape which is much further back than our balcony so a little bit easier to take pictures...

This a a fantastic vid of KW race and just as I remember having been their many times in the past, kinda makes you feel your their on the pier with them and you could just pass them an ice cream to keep them cool while they race ...
