Happy Thanksgiving!

Adventure Island!

By Shayne Benowitz

I have to say, in the years I’ve worked at Fury, I’ve enjoyed celebrating major holidays–Christmas, Thanksgiving, 4th of July, New Year’s Day– by working on the water with the Fury crew. We’re a tight knit family, so a lot of times work doesn’t feel like work. On a special holiday or occasion, you want to be with the people who are closest to you, and in Key West that’s my Fury family.

Cory After Dark

November 17th, 2011

By Shayne Benowitz

This Friday when the sun sets in Key West, the party on the water will just be gearing up. Our Cory Heydon Band is famous for selling out the Commotion on the Ocean night after night, so we decided an encore performance was in order. This Friday at 7:30pm, join us for Cory After Dark, a two-hour cruise through the twilight, under the stars and a bright half moon.

Powerboats!

What an exciting day on the water! The 31st annual Key West World Championship Powerboat Races started today and Fury was out in full force. As usual, our catamaran was positioned as an official turn boat during the race. This means we were literally apart of the racecourse. These amazing boats zoomed around us at speeds up to 100 miles per hour.

This year, we’re celebrating the Parrothead’s Annual Meeting of the Minds festivities a little differently. In years past we’ve had special guests performers. This year, our very own house band The Cory Heydon Band will be rockin’ and rollin’ to headline a very special Commotion on the Ocean. Cory, Tom, and Terry have become such a popular trio that our Commotion on the Ocean runs the risk of selling out almost every night.

I had some time to sit down with Cory and chit chat about tonight’s show. Here’s a brief excerpt from the interview. Enjoy!

Although some of our loyal Fury fans might consider the men and women of the Fury crew heroes at the reef, it’s not every day that a true American hero graces us with his presence. If you’ve watched the news lately, you’ve probably seen that President Obama awarded the national Medal of Honor to a Marine sergeant on September 15, 2011. That sergeant is Dakota Meyer, a 23 year-old from Kentucky, and veteran of the Iraq War and the War in Afghanistan.
