QUALITY CONDITIONS RETURN TO KEY WEST
(January 25, 2008) Acura Key West 2008, presented by Nautica, was among the
strangest and most challenging in the 21-year history of the regatta. Things
didn’t look good on Wednesday night after two of the initial three days of
the regatta were cancelled due to bad conditions. Making matters worse was
the fact the forecast for Thursday was for a second straight day of light,
fickle breeze.

However, Mother Nature did an about face and brought a solid 12-knot
northerly that enabled organizers with Premiere Racing to get in two races on
Thursday. Things got even better on Friday with a northeasterly bringing
16-20 knot winds that allowed for three more races to be held. “This was a
classic Key West day. It was breeze on with warm weather and sunshine. You
couldn’t have asked for a better final day,” Melges 24 winner Dave Ullman
said.
