"Yesterday’s 120-plus-boat Key West Poker Run fleet went without incident for all but the last 10 miles."
Wow. I can't even...

From what I was told, the boat was running around 80 in a narrow channel area, got just outside the channel into shallow water, the outside engine or engines hit bottom and violently caused the boat to almost stop but hooking sideways.Getting bad advice is unfortunate, taking bad advice is a Serious matter!!

All of the news reports call it a "race."
This won't be good for poker runs.
