It was an exciting weekend for standup paddleboard (SUP) racing in Key West with the annual Key West Paddleboard Classic 12 Mile Race around the island. This was the second year that Fury’s own Captain Westy served as race coordinator. Easily the fastest growing water sport today, Westy has been a vanguard in popularizing paddleboarding in Key West.

Cinco de Mayo! It’s a holiday I’ve always liked—mostly because I love Mexican food and margaritas—but I’ve rarely been able to get people on board to celebrate. Sometimes it’s just hard to throw a midweek fiesta. But this year was different.

I made the trek to Fort Lauderdale for the BIG 105.9 Paul & Young Ron Cinco de Social party at Bokamper’s Bar & Grill. It was definitely a Cinco de Mayo party, but it was also the kick-off party for the Paul & Young Ron Corona Key West Come Along May 20th-22nd. (more…)

The stars were out in Key West this weekend with the annual Songwriters Festival and the biggest and brightest shone aboard Fury’s Commotion on the Ocean. American Idol runner up Bo Bice and finalist Kristy Lee Cook’s star power sizzled out at sea.

Valentine’s Day & Fury’s Sunset Sail

Romance on a Fury sunset sail.

By Shayne Benowitz

Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! I have to admit, I’m a sucker for this holiday. Call me an optimist or a hopeless romantic, but I just love the idea of a day dedicated to love! Over the years, whether I’ve been single or coupled up on February 14, I always strive to make the day special, and remind the wonderful people in my life just how important they are to me.

After all, a little romance goes a long way… Tonight, for instance, Fury’s dedicating its sunset sail to Valentine’s Day. Take your sweetie out on the warm, tropic waters of Key West Harbor, sip on champagne, and feed each other strawberries while the sun sinks into the ocean and the sky lights up in an amazing color show.
