Jeff & his family sunset sailing.

By Shayne Benowitz

Jeff Haynes, winner of this month’s Fury Facebook Fan Photo Contest, should be an honorary member of the Conch Republic. I’m not sure who grants that distinction, but I’d be happy to welcome him into the honorary Fury Family! Jeff and his family have made regular sojourns down to Key West from central Florida and have definitely embraced our island paradise.

Sweet, sweet summertime. The days of summer are waning as Labor Day Weekend, the last hurrah, is approaching. It’s been an incredible season at Fury in Key West. The weather’s been gorgeous, our guests have enjoyed a host of brand new trips and boats, and we’ve been busy! It’s also been an incredible time on our Facebook and Twitter pages. We’ve hit the 6,000 mark for “likes” on Facebook and every day there’s a ton of interaction with our fans as they post vacation pictures and talk about their trip. It’s almost as good as the real thing day in and day out on the docks at the Westin, the Ocean Key House, and the Historic Seaport.

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. Other names might not dazzle marquees, but they’re the songwriters behind some of the biggest hits in the music industry.

The winning sunset photo.

By Shayne Benowitz

Have you been to our facebook page lately? Well, if you have, I’m sure you’ve noticed our new profile pic winner Fury Fan Nicole Nash! It’s a glowing Key West sunset in all reds and oranges that looks like fire in the sky setting behind a cloud near an outcropping of mangroves. If there are two things to marvel over in Key West, the crystal clear water is one and the stunning sunset is definitely the other.

Every night as the sun dips into the western horizon, it paints the sky myriad different colors. After living in Key West nearly five years, it’s something that still takes my breath away. Nicole captured this beautifully in her snapshot taken from Mallory Square after a day spent with us on the Ultimate Adventure with her boyfriend Todd. (more…)

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.
