Killer Auction Items, Drink Specials And More On Tap For Speed On The Water Key West Bash

Having cancelled our annual Speed On The Water Key West Bash in 2020 thanks to pandemic restrictions, we knew we had to come back with something big, not just for go-fast powerboat fans in town for the Florida Powerboat Club Key West Poker Run and American Power Boat Association Offshore World Championships but for Samuel’s House, the event’s benefitting charity. And, based on what we have cooking for the Thursday, November 11 happening at the Sandbar Sports Grill on Greene Street, we’re confident it will be our biggest and best event in the Sunshine State city to date.

Be sure to join us inside or outside the Sandbar Sports Grill for the eighth Speed On The Water Key West Bash on Thursday, Nov. 11.

You want great food and drink? As he has for the past three years Devin Wozencraft of Southern California-based Wozencraft Insurance Agency is covering the Sandbar fare while it lasts.

Oh, and for the first hour of the party, which kicks off at 7 p.m. and is co-hosted by our favorite South Florida realtor Greg Harris and his longtime girlfriend Yvonne Aleman, all Good Boy Vodka drinks are on company owner Alex Pratt and his team.

We’ll also be handing out free commemorative party T-shirts sponsored by our friends at Waves and Wheels and Maryland Offshore Performance Marine Center.

Translation? You’ll definitely want to get to the party when it opens. Plus, that will give you plenty of time to buy raffle tickets—and you should buy lots of them to support Samuel’s House, which provides shelter and services to women and intact families in a safe and sober setting. Raffle items include official gear from two 2021 APBA national champions—the Super Stock-class CMR Roofing and Construction team and the Supercat-class M CON team—a Bluave Marine Audio gift certificate, speedonthewater.com online store credit and gift packs from Bio-Kleen, Florida Powerboat Club, Horsepower Hottie, Sunsation Boats and Teague Custom Marine.
