- A raw and dirty edit of the offshore boat racing action at the 2019 Race World Offshore Key West World Championships. Turn up the Volume! This video includes boat racing action on Friday from all classes including Super Vee, Super Cat, Super Stock and others. The vid quality is a little different from normal as shooting into the sun and tracking powerboats at full send is quite difficult!

No racing on Earth even compares to offshore powerboat racing!!!
yep. It is one of the last bastions of top level raw racing.

Air Racing Does
@@karlkrumme7936 true, You have engine trouble up there You crash and die. There's definitely more on the line up in the air.
I enjoy watching these type of fast and loud videos.
Those Skaters are sooooo fast, Doug Wright is a bad ass too. And Jay Pilini makes some great boats too and so does Victory.
Music to my ears
Oh such beautiful music!
Thanks!
Racing is the last place in offshore where cameras can capture the roaring engines and raw power. Unfortunately on poker runs...with the transition to Mercury verado outboards and the finely tuned twin-turbo Mercury Racing V8's...the raw sound has gone away...except for a few that still run straight headers and pipes. Time to dive into the video archives! :)
Florida Powerboat Club Stu Jones I’m with ya Stu.. nothin like the sound of the non turbo engines. I miss the old days of key west races back in the late 90’s early 2000’s. Over 100 race boats total almost every year. The start of the superboat class was insane..prob 10+ boats in the class some with 4 engines. There was a helicopter for almost every team.. maybe it’ll come back some day but for now your event has def taken over as far as the show. Let’s hope you can do at least a few events this year. Just heard Boyne thunder was canceled.
@@dannyt9067 hang in there.. Wait till you see what I have in my 25 years of powerboat video archives. More to come!!
Nice shots of the boat getting a little air, Better action shots than NBC Since you did some video for STU hopefully your on his payroll you deserve the big bucks!!!!!
Boy, that was a workout for the TV sound system! What a great noise these boats make. Incredibly uncomfortable, incredibly dangerous, and incredibly expensive. You’ve got to take your hat off to these folks! Bravery and skill, verging on madness. Great camerawork and sound recording, as usual. Thanks, Zippy!
THANK YOU! JUST WHAT I NEEDED WHILE I RIDE MY BIKE INDOORS!
Off shore powerboat racing is perfect for inboard engines as it goes with the roar of those engines
2:50 on....some of those clips of screaming Merc 2.5 280s and 2.5 300 Drags and 3.2 300Xs really sound good. Go 2 strokes!
Perfect way to start the day...EVERY DAY!!! I miss it man!
Very cool. Every time one of those boats gets air I hold my breath. Truly on the edge.
i dont have enough money to pay only the fuel for one race but im wartching this :-)
When I was stationed at the Naval Hospital in Key West in 1970 they used to have boat races every Sunday in the channel between the North end of the island and the next island. I worked for the local ambulance service on my time off and we got to do medical stand by for the races. Had lots of fun. I miss those days.
Great video, Thank you
Amazing sound!
LOVE THIS STUFF ZAP !!! Thx but sure wish you had the whole race :) !!!
Its really cool how you can see the air current coming off the back of the boats pushing the water coming out of the exhaust down.
It takes “balls of steel” to run that fast, on the “razors edge”.
The water is unpredictable and always changing 👍
I personally would love to see an actual offshore race like West Palm to Bimini and back 120 mile endurance gulf stream crossing. Cannonball style.
isn't that how they used to do the races? but changed them to make it easier for logistics and spectators?
@@ZipZapPower I haven't followed the sport very long I've only seen these circuit style races I just it would be a sight to behold now with modern technology watching them make the Bahamas run.
You might be in luck. There’s a race schedule this year called the “ocean cup” June 4-6 from west palm to freeport Bahamas..not sure if they’re still having the race cuz of the virus crap.. google oceancup.com
well filmed very smooth!
Shout out to Sheiriff Lobo all the way from Trinidad & Tobago ....Always follow you Zip zap ...Great videos as always bro..
Keep up the good work
very cool !
Love this channel, you make the best boat content on YT
Thanks Zip, The audio is amazing. I was down for the races it was a great show!!
Nice! It is such a great event and Key west is so much fun, The super stock race on Friday was incredible until the flip happened.
@@ZipZapPower yeah it was crazy to see, I've never been that close to a wreck before.
Great captures of these powerful machines! Question, why does your motion blur look altered (fluid)? This leads me to believe you're not following the 180 degree rule. This is 60 fps, therefore your shutter should be 120. Any particular reason you choose to break the 180 degree rule?
I was watching a race the other day on CZcams and the race HOST/ANNOUNCERS specifically mentioned you and all of the great footage you get.....and they mentioned the other guy that films nearby you or someone that plays loud music while you are filming... :)Keep it up man!
Do you have video with a boat actually capsizing/sinking- coast guard/ police coming to the rescue ?
Thanks for not playing music.
Wouahhh...Ça: c'est du sport !!!! Yessss...! ;-)
I have no idea how, but that was some of your best work. Well done.
How did you find space to record so close to the water? How did you NOT get crowd noise? How do those boats keep their engines cool with their rear ends hardly touching the water? Dang, they like float over the water.
Thanks. get close to water? get there very early and stake a claim. no crowd noise? ask people to be quiet and turn their radios off or move away from me. Boats keep cool? I'm not sure they do keep cool since the attrition in offshore racing is very high!
Thank you for the video . I made the comment the other day on another channel about power cats catching air and how I get nervous when viewing that . Would it be safe to say that the cat upside down was a victim of that ??
yes, they flipped, and i just missed catching it. no injuries because of luck, and the excellent safety in the boats and rescue teams.
14 SnailBoaters disliked this video. Excellent.
ZipZap -- do you get to hang out with the babes from Stu's channel???
Russ....Ked was too busy running around with a camera rig....he doesn't have time to PLAY with the FPC GIRLS....LOL ..:)
Ha, I wish, Stu is right, no time for that! Although.. Stu, I usually have room in my car, so I'm happy to help move "staff" around when running to the different locations.
Nothing better than the sound of the mercury f1 2 stroke!! Old school!!!
No 'Miss Geico' ?
It'd be nice to see someone come out of hallover like that lol
cool
What kind of a idiot gives this a thumbs down?
Hope to see this race someday in person.
When you do, reach out to me and i will give you some tips, one thing you have to see during the event is the Florida Powerboat Club dock and parties all weekend at Conch Republic Seafood.
@@ZipZapPower
Thanks man! Yes Ive seen the shenanigans from the pics posted on Offshoreonly over the years lol. Would love to spend a week partying and watching races what could be better?!?! 👍👍
The only downside is I don't think I saw any Apaches in the lineup....
Pretty sure people just watch for the sound. It’s boring to watch unless there’s a body shredding wreck then it’s fun.

And i thought 55mph in an 18 foot boat was fast...
